matrix-io-malos 0.1.1

MATRIX Labs MALOS libraries

A simple Python coroutine based driver for communicating with MATRIX-MALOS services.

Installing

The package is available on Pypi, so you can easily install via pip:

pip install matrix-io-malos

Running the CLI client

The library includes a simple command line client to start reading data from your MALOS service right away.

# Get the malosclient help screen
malosclient --help

# Get IMU data to STDOUT from a locally running MALOS service
malosclient IMU

# Get HUMIDITY data to STDOUT from a remotely running MALOS service
malosclient -h 192.168.0.100 HUMIDITY

# Get FACE detection data using a serialized driver config file
malosclient --driver-config-file ~/driver_config.proto VISION

Using the MalosDriver

To use the MALOS driver works as an async generator so in your code you can do the following:

import asyncio
import sys

from matrix_io.malos.driver import IMU_PORT, UV_PORT
from matrix_io.proto.malos.v1 import driver_pb2
from matrix_io.proto.malos.v1 import sense_pb2

from matrix_io.malos.driver import MalosDriver


async def imu_data(imu_driver):
    async for msg in imu_driver.get_data():
        print(sense_pb2.Imu().FromString(msg))
        await asyncio.sleep(1.0)


async def uv_data(uv_driver):
    async for msg in uv_driver.get_data():
        print(sense_pb2.UV().FromString(msg))
        await asyncio.sleep(1.0)


async def error_handler(driver):
    async for msg in driver.get_error():
        print('Error: %s' % msg, file=sys.stderr)
        await asyncio.sleep(1.0)


# Driver configuration
driver_config = driver_pb2.DriverConfig()

# Create the drivers
imu_driver = MalosDriver('localhost', IMU_PORT)
uv_driver = MalosDriver('localhost', UV_PORT)
imu_driver.configure(driver_config)
uv_driver.configure(driver_config)

# Create loop and initialize keep-alive
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.create_task(imu_driver.start_keep_alive())
loop.create_task(uv_driver.start_keep_alive())

# Initialize data and error handlers
loop.create_task(imu_data(imu_driver))
loop.create_task(uv_data(uv_driver))
loop.create_task(error_handler(imu_driver))
loop.create_task(error_handler(uv_driver))

try:
    loop.run_forever()
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    print('Shutting down. Bye, bye !', file=sys.stderr)
finally:
    loop.stop()
    asyncio.gather(*asyncio.Task.all_tasks()).cancel()

    loop.run_until_complete(loop.shutdown_asyncgens())
    loop.close()
