Project description

PyWiliot: wiliot-deployment-tools

wiliot-deployment-tools is a python library for accessing Wiliot's Deployment and Automation Tools. This python package includes the following CLI utilities:

  • Automatic Configuration Tool (wlt-config)
  • Calibration Management Tool (wlt-clibration-mgmt)
  • Firmware Update Tool (wlt-firmware)
  • Power Management Tool (wlt-power-mgmt)
  • Log Viewer (wlt-log)

Installing wiliot-deployment-tools

pip install wiliot-deployment-tools

Using wiliot-deployment-tools

This package includes the following CLI Utilities:

Automatic Configuration Tool

Automatically connects to all Gateways / Bridges in the location specified, and configure them to optimal parameters.

usage: wlt-config -owner OWNER -location LOCATION [-ota] [-no_gp_zone] [-pacing_interval PACING_INTERVAL] [-ignore_bridges [IGNORE_BRIDGES [IGNORE_BRIDGES ...]]] [--expected_num_brgs EXPECTED_NUM_BRGS]

required arguments:
  -owner OWNER         Platform owner id
  -location LOCATION   Location name in Wiliot platform. If location has ' ' in name, input location wrapped with double quotes: --location "LOCATION NAME"

additional (optional) arguments:
  -ota         Updating FW version to latest for all devices
  -no_gp_zone          don't use Global pacing group by zone (all bridges will be GPG=0)
  -pacing_interval PACING_INTERVAL
                        Pacing interval for all devices
  -ignore_bridges [IGNORE_BRIDGES [IGNORE_BRIDGES ...]]
                        bridges to ignore in the tool - their configuration won't be changed
  -expected_num_brgs EXPECTED_NUM_BRGS
                        Number of expected bridges in location. The tool will try to connect to all bridges (excluding those specified in ignore bridges) until reaching expected number.

example usage: wlt-config --owner wiliot --location "My Deployment" --ota_upgrade --pacing_interval 10 --ignore_bridges 1234ABCD0123

Calibration Management

Configure Wiliot Bridge calibration mode, broadcast is optional

 -all_brgs             update all bridges connected to Gateways
 -ignore_bridges IGNORE_BRIDGES [IGNORE_BRIDGES ...]
                       bridges to ignore
 -action               update using action API
 -force                update bridge even if its already in desired version (applicable only with -action)

 example usage: wlt-firmware -o wiliot update -gw GW0123 -all_brgs

Power Management

Use Wiliot Bridge power management functionality

Enter Power Management

Configure Specified Bridges to work in power management configuration.

MacOS Installation

Getting around SSL issue on Mac with Python 3.7 and later versions

Python version 3.7 on Mac OS has stopped using the OS's version of SSL and started using Python's implementation instead. As a result, the CA certificates included in the OS are no longer usable. To avoid getting SSL related errors from the code when running under this setup you need to execute Install Certificates.command Python script. Typically you will find it under

/Applications/Python\ 3.7/Install\ Certificates.command

Python 3 on MacOS

The default Python version on mac is 2.x. Since Wiliot package requires Python 3.x you should download Python3 (e.g. Python3.7) and make python 3 your default. There are many ways how to do it such as add python3 to your PATH (one possible solution https://www.educative.io/edpresso/how-to-add-python-to-the-path-variable-in-mac)
