Synchronized Energy Harvesting Emulator and Recorder CLI

Project description

shepherd-herd

shepherd-herd ist the command line utility for controlling a group of shepherd nodes remotely through an IP-based network.

Installation

shepherd-herd is a pure python package and available on PyPI. Use your python package manager to install it. For example, using pip:

pip install shepherd-herd

Usage

All shepherd-herd commands require the list of hosts on which to perform the requested action. This list of hosts is provided with the -i option, that takes either the path to a file or a comma-separated list of hosts (compare Ansible -i).

For example, save the following file as hosts.

sheep:
  hosts:
    sheep0:
    sheep1:
    sheep2:
  vars:
    ansible_user: jane

Then use shepherd-herd to check if all your nodes are up:

shepherd-herd -i hosts run echo 'hello'

Or, equivalently define the list of hosts on the command line

shepherd-herd -i sheep0,sheep1,sheep2, run echo 'hello'

Here, we just provide a selected set of examples of how to use shepherd-herd. For a full list of supported commands and options, run shepherd-herd --help and shepherd-herd [COMMAND] --help.

Simultaneously start a 30s recording on the nodes defined in the hosts file:

shepherd-herd -i hosts record -o rec.h5

After recording is done, retrieve the data from all nodes and merge it to one hdf5 file on your local machine for analysis:

shepherd-herd -i hosts retrieve --merge -o rec_merged.h5 rec.h5

Flash a firmware image to the sensor nodes attached to the shepherd nodes:

shepherd-herd -i hosts target flash firmware_img.bin

Reset the sensor nodes:

shepherd-herd -i hosts target reset

Simultaneously start to play back the previously recorded data to the attached sensor nodes and monitor their power consumption and GPIO events:

shepherd-herd -i hosts emulate -i rec.h5 -o load.h5
