IoT-LAB testbed command-line client

Project description

IoT-Lab cli-tools

IoT-LAB cli-tools provide a basic set of operations for managing IoT-LAB experiments from the command-line.

License

IoT-LAB cli-tools, including all examples, code snippets and attached documentation is covered by the CeCILL v2.1 free software licence.

Commands

The following commands are available:

Command

Functions

auth-cli

configure account credentials

experiment-cli

start, stop, query experiments

node-cli

start, stop, reset nodes, update firmwares

profile-cli

manage nodes configurations

robot-cli

manage robot nodes

Commands are self-documented, and usually have sub-commands which are also self-documented. Use e.g:

node-cli --help
profile-cli add --help

Description

The cli-tools leverage the IoT-LAB REST API and simply wrap calls to module iotlabcli, which is a Python (2.6 or higher) client for the API.

The cli-tools come as an installable Python package and require that module setuptools be installed before tools installation can happen. Please grab the relevant python-setuptools package for your distribution.

To proceede to install cli-tools, use sudo python setup.py install.

Installing cli-tools automatically fetches additional dependencies as needed.
