Before you can go on, you need to install some Python packages:

Code Block

language	bash

~/Desktop/openwsn/openwsn-sw/software/openvisualizer$ sudo apt-get install python-pip
~/Desktop/openwsn/openwsn-sw/software/openvisualizer$ sudo pip install bottle
~/Desktop/openwsn/openwsn-sw/software/openvisualizer$ sudo pip install PyDispatcher
~/Desktop/openwsn/openwsn-sw/software/openvisualizer$ sudo pip install Sphinx
~/Desktop/openwsn/openwsn-sw/software/openvisualizer$ sudo pip install netifaces
~/Desktop/openwsn/openwsn-sw/software/openvisualizer$ sudo pip install yappi
~/Desktop/openwsn/openwsn-sw/software/openvisualizer$ sudo pip install pyzmq
~/Desktop/openwsn/openwsn-sw/software/openvisualizer$ sudo pip install openwsn-coap

Or install them simple with one command.

Code Block

language	bash

~/Desktop/openwsn/openwsn-sw/software/openvisualizer$ sudo pip install -r requirements.txt

Info
The current version of pip 8.1.2 has some changes on the source code, which may cause the error: AttributeError: 'Requirement' object has no attribute 'project_name' when use the -r option to install the packages, . If this error happens, try to install those packages one by one as shown previously.

PySerial is also required and it's available in Debian/Ubuntu. you need to install the PySerial if it's not installed on your machine.

Code Block

language	bash

~/Desktop/openwsn/openwsn-sw/software/openvisualizer$ sudo pip install PySerial

Back in the "Motes" tab, select mote 0001 and click on the "Toggle" button. You just declare mote 1 to be the root of your network (the DAGroot in RPL parlance, the sink in WSN parlance, the gateway, etc). You can select other motes and see that they join the network and obtained the same prefix bbbb::/64.

Congratulations, you have built your first OpenWSN simulated network!

...

Info

title	OpenMote

If you compile for the OpenMote board, you need to use the package "gcc-arm-none-eabi" and use the toolchain "armgcc"

...

The build environment allow you to build the firmware and load is on all your boards with a single command (how cool is that?):

...

Your TelosB motes turn on their blue LED once synchronized.

Note

title	Can I see the topology?

You might be tempted to look for a graphical representation of the topology. Unfortunately, this is only implemented in simulation mode. Really want it? Help fix
