AgentV: A Microservice Framework for Vortex

Build Status

AgentV provides a very lightweight microservice framework for Vortex. At the preent time microservices can only be packaged as Jar and implemented in a langauge targeting the JVM such as Java, Scala, etc. Future version of AgentV may provide support for other programming languages and packages.

Running AgentV

AgentV comes with batteries included, meaning all the jars required to start playing with it are already included in the repository you check out. The only thing you need to run it is Java.

Before you start AgentV, you should check how many network interface has your computer and understand if you'd like to force communication through one of those.

By default, an inteface will be detected automatically by the runtime. If you want to explicitely set an interface, such as en0, eth1, wlan0, or anything else that may make sense for your configuration, you may do it by replacing the auto below with the appropriate interface name.

-Dddsi.network.interface=auto # replace auto with iface name

To start playing with AgentV you need to start the agent and the UI:

$./bin/agentv your-node-name some-description &
$./bin/commander &

At this point you can use the GUI to deploy microservices and manage them. The sample microservices are located under the ./lib directory.

When starting AgentV on Edison you need to use the script called eagentv as it contains the reference to some of the libraries used by the edison microservices used to control sensors, displays, etc.

Thus on edison you should do the following:

 $./bin/eagentv edison iot-demo

Building and Installing AgentV

The first step toward experimenting with AgentV is to build it. The AgentV runtime, its GUI and the demo can all be built and installed by issuing the following commands:

$./build-all
$./install
