Welcome to Scaleworks

Introduction

Welcome, I am excited to present Scaleworks ControlNet is a communication platform for devices like Raspberry Pi's that support python programming language. The purpose to build this platform is to connect various devices over a network(i.e private & public network). Each has a unique use-case.

Control Net Architecture is divided in 3 Projects

• IOR Control Net Tower
• IOR Socket Server
• IOR Video Streamer

Getting Started

Server

Setup Docker

Docker is a open platform to run apps in a container and seperate those apps from the infrastructure. You can install docker as per your platform needs from here, we will also need Docker Compose which can be installed from this page.

Download Docker Compose File

cd ~
mkdir controlnet-docker
cd controlnet-docker
wget https://mayank31313.github.io/docker/full/docker-compose.yml

The above command will download docker-compose file in the current directory

Run servers in Docker

To run containers just run the below command in the docker-compose file directory, it will pull necessary images and start docker containers.

docker-compose up

To stop the containers, run below command

docker-compose down

Client (IOR-Python)

The client code is available on this github repository

Setup Client

For this example no external configuration is needed, all the settings are predefined. The below example will only give a use case on the controlnet platform.

git clone https://github.com/mayank31313/ior-python
cd ior-python/examples
python3 LatencyCheck.py ../config/from.json ../config/to.json

Usage

config = {
    "server": "localhost",
    "httpPort": 5001,
    "socketServer": "localhost",
    "tcpPort": 8000,
    #"useSSL": True    # Optional
}

Create Instance of IOT Client

from ior_research.IOTClient import IOTClientWrapper
iot = IOTClientWrpper(token=token, config = config) #Creating object for IOT Client

Setting up Receive Function to do some Operation when a response is received.

iot.set_on_receive(lambda x: print(x))

Last but not the least start the IOTClient

iot.start()
iot.join()
