Layer 1 driver (shell) template / example / documentation ?

Hi @mporterf

For developing Layer 1 drivers, you can use shellfoundry utility (you can find more details about it in the dev guide).

There is a Layer 1 template that you can use with this utility, to create the basic project and continue from there.

The command should be something like:

shellfoundry new myLayer1 --template layer-1-switch

You can get more details in the Shell L1 Driver Standard page on github.

Yaniv,

Thanks, but i can't resolve the missing componenets via requirements.txt.

Here's what I get from the command line:

C:\Users\mporterfield\cloudshell-L1-dicon_mos>python -m pip install -r ./src/requirements.txt
Requirement already satisfied: cloudshell-core==2.1.153 in c:\python27\lib\site-packages (from -r ./src/requirements.txt (line 1))

C:\Users\mporterfield\cloudshell-L1-dicon_mos>

and here is what requirements.txt looks like:

cloudshell-core==2.1.153
-e git+git@github.com:QualiSystems/cloudshell-L1-networking-core.git@refactoring#egg=cloudshell_l1_networking_core

But I can find: https://github.com/QualiSystems/cloudshell-L1-networking-core

Not sure what's going wrong

thanks,

Yaniv,

Any info on this? Sorry to rush but I sort of figured the answer would be quick. I'm trying to write an L1 driver for a very simple L1 optical switch for one of Oriel's accounts. The switch is a Fiberoptics DiCon MEMS switch. It is very simple, I just need to be able to have everything in the right place to be able to finish the driver. I am using PyCharm as suggested, I have generated the project. This is for CloudShell 7.1.x. Any help you can give would be much appreciated, unless you think I should open a support ticket?

thanks,

Marcus Porterfield

I have added needed fixes to the template and cloudshell-L1-networking-core.

Could you try again and let us know results?

It failed again. This time with Permission denied.

This is an old code, to use new code you need to recreate project from template. Or you just can update requirements.txt from here requirements.txt.

To clone this repo use next command "git clone https://github.com/QualiSystems/cloudshell-L1-networking-core.git"

Yaniv thanks for the response. I’m about ready to start coding but I keep getting “Package requirement ‘cloudshell-l1-networking-core’ is not satisfied” from PyCharm and installing requirement does not work. Is this a .dll that I have to load? Can you explain/

You do not have to load a dll.

I think you have to specify correct python interpreter.
