Setup

Before you begin using AltWalker's LiveViewer, make sure you have AltWalker installed. If you haven't already, you can follow the installation instructions here.

Install the AltWalker LiveViewer command-line tool:

pip install altwalker-live-viewer

To verify that the CLI was installed correctly, run:

altwalker-viewer --version

You should see the version information displayed:

altwalker-viewer, version 0.4s.0

Running

To use altwalker-viewer, you'll need the following prerequisites:

• Test model(s)
• Test code for the model(s)

If you can run your tests using altwalker online, you already have everything you need for the LiveViewer.

The altwalker-viewer online command shares arguments and options with altwalker online. However, it includes the -p option to set up the WebSocket port.

To start the WebSocket server:

altwalker-viewer online path/to/tests/ -m path/to/model.json "generator(stop_condition)" -x [python|dotnet]

For example:

altwalker-viewer online tests -m models/default.json "random(never)"

Now, open your web browser and visit: https://altwalker.github.io/live-viewer/.

If you want to run the frontend locally, you'll need to start a WebServer, which serves the LiveViewer frontend.

altwalker-viewer open

Now, open your web browser and visit: http://localhost:8000/.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues while using the LiveViewer, consider the following steps:

1. Check Model and Code Validity: First, ensure that your models and code are valid by using the following commands:

   • altwalker check for the model(s)
   • altwalker verify for code

2. Terminating GraphWalker Processes: If you experience problems when running the altwalker-viewer online command, it's essential to check for any existing GraphWalker processes. If any GraphWalker processes are running, you should stop them before running the altwalker-viewer online command.
