NameError while installation in fedora 22

[vivekanand1101]

I have all the dependencies listed here, then i tried pip install pymote. It gave NameError that it can't find name "sys_platform".

In a hurry. If anybody could help, that would be great.

I have released 0.2.1 version since 0.2.0 used old version of distribute package not needed anymore that could cause problems. Please try again.

[vivekanand1101]

sorry, this still gave an error. Not the same and also i am not sure it has everything to do with pymote

Yes it seems that the problem is with installing scipy. Could you paste output of pip freeze here. Probably you have newer version of scipy than the one that is required 0.12 or less.

[vivekanand1101]

I had one installed by dnf but i removed it, when i saw this error. pip freeze gave this:

You should install scipy 0.12 or 0.11 and then try again with pymote.

I tried it and now i have scipy version 0.11.0 and numpy version 1.7.0. Installation of pymote version 0.2.1 went well but i still get an error when i compile the "Hello Distributed world" example. Error:

.

The problem is in line import scipy.stats. You can try manually importing in the python shell and see if you get the same error. If you do, the problem is still in scipy.

[vivekanand1101]

That one is clear now. But still no success in compilation of "hello dist. world". Error:

Do you have PySide installed?

[vivekanand1101]

I thought pymote would install it by itself. Sorry for this one.

[darbula]

Unfortunately no, this could and should probably change.

[vivekanand1101]

That step is done. The program gets compiled. But as given by the example here, net.show() should show the gui. But, even if matplotlib is imported, an error shows up:

I have tried changing the backend, i changed it to PySide. It doesn't work. As soon as i do net.show(). Segmentation fault occurs and i am out of "ipymote"

Can you tell me which backend would be best for pymote ?

And also, when i try to run pymote simulation gui, i get this.
I guess, it is also because of some backend problem (in matplotlib)

Hello world tutorial is intended to be started in ipython notebook as noted on tutorial page here:

Tutorial is currently available in form of IPython notebook

So you have to download notebook, start ipython notebook --profile=pymote and load it there. Also when inside tutorial you can try to assert inline mode with %pylab inline command.

[vivekanand1101]

Yeah. But, i was able to solve the problem in a different way. I am able to see the graph. It was due to matplotlib.

Would that be better to have animation as one of the feature ? Ex: like showing data transfer between motes.

[darbula]

Possibility to see data packages step by step is already in the simulationgui.
