This tool simulates interaction with the light controllers via MODBUS protocol over TCP/IP and additionally provides a simple UI for configuration and monitoring.
2023-06-14 19:21:37 +00:00
UI is built using **Flask** , simulator - using the **pyModbusTCP** package

Requires **python3.10** and above

Setup & debug
=============
+ clone the repo and cd to the cloned dir
+ `` python3.11 -m venv .venv ``
+ `` source .venv/bin/activate ``
+ `` pip install build ``
+ `` python -m build ``
+ `` pip install -e . ``
+ `` pip list `` (pip show abibas, pip uninstall abibas, etc)
At this stage the package is installed in editable mode, to run it in debug mode:
+ `` abibas-debug ``
or in normal mode:
+ `` abibas ``
If in debug mode changes made to the Flask app will be applied automatically at runtime,
for the changes in simulator though the tool has to be restarted.
**main** module can be manipulated for debugging purposes as well
