A simulator for OpenCube.
At the moment the functionality is very, very, very limited. But this will hopefully improve over time.
If you are testing the simulator its better to set-up a virtual environement. This prevents the required python packages to mess up with your current python installation.
To create a virtual environment:
virtualenv env
Activate the virtual environment:
source env/bin/activate/
Install the SPG4 propagator for python:
pip install spg4
Install RabbitMQ. Install the pika RabbitMQ python client:
pip install pika==0.9.8
If you are using a virtual environment activate it. Then start the propagator and the receiver in different terminal tabs or windows.
python Propagator.py
python Receiver.py
The simulator is released under a BSD license.
