Building/installation: sudo python3 setup.py install If you prefer to have it cleanly removable, install checkinstall and run sudo checkinstall python setup.py install Alternatively, just run pip3 install --user -e ./ depending on your python version. Use: There are currently following scripts in this package: osmotestconfig.py - test that apps start/write with example configs soap.py - implementation of SOAP <-> Ctrl proxy implemented on top of Twisted (deprecated, unmaintained) ctrl2cgi.py - implementation of CGI <-> Ctrl proxy implemented on top of Twisted (deprecated, unmaintained) osmo_trap2cgi.py - implementation of CGI <-> Ctrl proxy implemented on top of asyncio and aiohttp osmo_rate_ctr2csv.py - rate counter dumper on top of osmo_ipa osmo_interact_vty.py - pipe stdin/stdout to a VTY session osmo_interact_ctrl.py - pipe stdin/stdout to a CTRL port osmo_verify_transcript_vty.py - VTY testing by VTY session screen dumps osmo_verify_transcript_ctrl.py - CTRL testing by CTRL session script files twisted_ipa.py - implementation of IPA and Ctrl protocols on top of Twisted framework osmodumpdoc.py - dump documentation, superseded by osmo_interact_vty.py -X osmotestvty.py - test vty operations, superseded by osmo_verify_transcript_vty.py Some of these scripts import a project-specific osmoappdesc.py, which provides information about the available apps, configs, vty ports, etc. and is provided by other source trees (like osmo-bsc.git, osmo-msc.git, ...) Run the scripts with osmoappdesc.py in the current directory (preferred) or with -p . Remember that osmoappdesc.py may contain relative paths. Example: After install osmodumpdoc for openbsc's apps can be run by: cd /openbsc/openbsc && osmodumpdoc.py Libraries: osmopy/osmoutil.py - code that's shared between the scripts osmopy/osmo_ipa.py - generic implementation of IPA and Ctrl protocols in python osmopy/trap_helper.py - generic Trap class and related helpers used by soap.py and ctrl2cgi.py osmopy/osmo_interact/{vty,ctrl}.py - general interactions with VTY and CTRL ports osmopy/obscvty.py - connect to a vty, superseded by osmo_interact/vty obscvty.py may be of general use. osmoutil.py probably isn't.
