pySMT makes working with Satisfiability Modulo Theory simple:
- Define formulae in a simple, intuitive, and solver independent way
- Solve your formulae using one of the native solvers, or by wrapping any SMT-Lib complaint solver,
- Dump your problems in the SMT-Lib format,
- and more...

pySMT provides methods to define a formula in Linear Real Arithmetic (LRA), Real Difference Logic (RDL), Equalities and Uninterpreted Functions (EUF), Bit-Vectors (BV), Arrays (A), Strings (S) and their combinations. The following solvers are supported through native APIs:
- MathSAT (http://mathsat.fbk.eu/)
- Z3 (https://github.com/Z3Prover/z3/)
- CVC4 (http://cvc4.cs.nyu.edu/web/)
- Yices 2 (http://yices.csl.sri.com/)
- CUDD (http://vlsi.colorado.edu/~fabio/CUDD/)
- PicoSAT (http://fmv.jku.at/picosat/)
- Boolector (http://fmv.jku.at/boolector/)
Additionally, you can use any SMT-LIB 2 compliant solver.
PySMT assumes that the python bindings for the SMT Solver are
installed and accessible from your PYTHONPATH.
pySMT works on both Python 3.5 and Python 2.7.
You can install the latest stable release of pySMT from PyPI:
# pip install pysmt
this will additionally install the pysmt-install command, that can be used to install the solvers: e.g.,
$ pysmt-install --check
will show you which solvers have been found in your PYTHONPATH.
PySMT does not depend directly on any solver, but if you want to
perform solving, you need to have at least one solver installed. This
can be used by pySMT via its native API, or passing through an SMT-LIB
file.
The script pysmt-install can be used to simplify the installation of the solvers:
$ pysmt-install --msat
will install MathSAT 5.
By default the solvers are downloaded, unpacked and built in your home directory
in the .smt_solvers folder. Compiled libraries and actual solver packages are
installed in the relevant site-packages directory (e.g. virtual environment's
packages root or local user-site). pysmt-install has many options to
customize its behavior.
Note: This script does not install required dependencies for building the solver (e.g., make or gcc) and has been tested mainly on Linux Debian/Ubuntu systems. We suggest that you refer to the documentation of each solver to understand how to install it with its python bindings.
For Yices, picosat, and CUDD, we use external wrappers:
- yicespy (https://github.com/pysmt/yicespy)
- repycudd (https://github.com/pysmt/repycudd)
- pyPicoSAT (https://github.com/pysmt/pyPicoSAT)
For instruction on how to use any SMT-LIB complaint solver with pySMT see examples/generic_smtlib.py
For more information, refer to online documentation on ReadTheDocs
The following table summarizes the features supported via pySMT for each of the available solvers.
