cgse-dummy 0.6.6

Demonstration of a CGSE package with a dummy device driver

Dummy Device Driver

This package demonstrates how to develop a device driver that can be integrated with the cgse framework. It provides a Dummy Control Server that connects to a Dummy Device, which acts as a data acquisition simulator.

Features

• Dummy Control Server for testing and development
• Simulated device for data acquisition
• Example implementation for integration with the cgse framework

Directory Structure

• cgse_dummy/
  • cgse_explore.py - implements the show_processes() function used by the cgse show procs command
  • cgse_services.py - Service definitions for the dummy device, provides the dummy sub-command for the cgse
  • dummy_cs.py - implementation of the synchronous control server
  • dummy_acs.py - implementation of the asynchronous control server (experimental)
  • dummy_dev.py - implementation of the synchronous device driver
  • dummy_adev.py - implementation of the asynchronous device driver (experimental)
  • dummy_sim.py - Simulation logic for the dummy device
  • sim_data.py - Simulation data generation
  • settings.yaml - Configuration file with port numbers and other settings for the Dummy device and Dummy control server

Developer Installation

Clone the repository and install the package:

git clone [e-mail]:IvS-KULeuven/cgse-dummy.git
cd cgse-dummy

User installation

This package is available on PyPI, but it is not intended for end users. Instead, it serves as a reference implementation for developers who wish to inspect the source code and learn how to create external device packages that integrate with the cgse framework.

Requirements

• Python 3.10+
• Any additional dependencies listed in the pyproject.toml file.
