m-lab / libraries Goto Github PK

The libraries support SWIG for Python wrapper creation, and Java sort of works, but the resulting class files aren't built into a .jar file that can be loaded.

It seems to be a CMake vs SWIG thing as it can be done manually on command line.

This should be fixed when it becomes useful to someone.

although it's not part of the core library concept, these are useful constructs that could be exposed to users.

• Get full (or partial geo-based) list of servers from mlab-ns
• Run burst of ping to every server and get closest

Receive warns if response < expected, but if response > expected the response is just truncated. For the NS lookup, this causes an issue for calling code as it leads to an unparseable response and there's nothing they can do about it.

Ideally, the NS lookup would retrieve chunks of X bytes until the response completes.

Once a tool has run, it will have data to send to M-Lab. This library can, and should, abstract the details of this away.

There is a standalone m-lab pipeline running on a utility slice - this library should contain the client-side implementation of that protocol.

From @stephen-soltesz:

While attempting to build m-lab.libraries on a x86_64 Mac os x system, I encountered the following build errors. I've included tool versions that may be relevant.
