ICIDO Plugin for SysPlace

ICIDO Plugin that listens for UDP packets containing a JSON that tells the system

• the color and
• the presence of a car.

Whenever the presence or color changes, the ICIDO system renders either an entering or a leaving car or the color of the car, respectively. The code runs on Python2.7 only.

Usage and configuration

In order to run the plugin, just use the file socketGet.py as an ICIDO Plugin. Be sure to either put ip and port into IPConfig.py or hardcode them into socketGet.py (in the one place where those two variables are used).

JSON format

The JSON format is:

{
  "inside":"true|false",
  "color":"green|blue"
}

Simulator

To use a Commandline simulator, just run

$ python simulator.py

To change the simulation, open simulator.py and change those lines:

fakeSocket.enqueue(Packet("blue", False))
fakeSocket.enqueue(Packet("blue", False))
fakeSocket.enqueue(Packet("green", False))
fakeSocket.enqueue(Packet("green", True))
fakeSocket.enqueue(Packet("green", True))
fakeSocket.enqueue(Packet("blue", True))
# [...]

Packets will be "sent" to the server in the exact order they are enqueued. The Server behavior will be printed to the command line.

Tests

There are some unit tests that can be run:

$ python tests.py

By setting the verbose flag with setVerbose(True|False), the test output can be adjusted.
