SHOT documentation

SHOT is an open-source solver for mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP). These guides explain how to build a model, configure the solver, and understand its results. They describe SHOT 2.0 development; interfaces may change before release.

Choose an interface to get started, or use the reference pages when you need a specific setting or API detail.

Start here Your first model Install SHOTpy and solve a small nonlinear optimization problem. Python SHOTpy tutorial Work through modeling, solver settings, callbacks, and larger problems. Command line Solve a problem file Choose input formats, pass options, and run the standalone solver. C++ Integrate SHOT Embed the solver in your application and customize its behavior. Configuration Solver settings Search options, inspect defaults, and copy settings for your runs. Troubleshooting Diagnose solver behavior Read diagnostic output and investigate unexpected results.

For the complete interfaces, see the SHOTpy API and C++ API. To build from source, follow the installation guide.
