# Building
|
|
Before building you should install swig and python.
|
|
To build python bindings you have to turn on the BUILD\_PYTHON\_BINDINGS flag in CMake from cmake-gui or in command line:
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ cmake -DBUILD_PYTHON_BINDINGS=ON .
|
|
```
|
|
Then compile the library and install it. CMake and swig will automatically detect your python version and install the python library in python library directories.
|
|
|
|
pyiec61850 library is to be imported calling
|
|
```python
|
|
import iec61850
|
|
```
|
|
# Client tutorial
|
|
|
|
The python bindings works similarly to the basic C library. However there are some differences:
|
|
|
|
* a specific function is to be called to cast variables from one type to another
|
|
* arguments passed by pointer are to be removed from arguments and append to the return list
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example to create a connection, call:
|
|
```python
|
|
con = iec61850.IedConnection_create()
|
|
error = iec61850.IedConnection_connect(con, "localhost", 102)
|
|
if (error == iec61850.IED_ERROR_OK):
|
|
# Do some work
|
|
iec61850.IedConnection_close(con)
|
|
iec61850.IedConnection_destroy(con)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To iterate over a list of logical devices, the code becomes:
|
|
```python
|
|
[deviceList, error] = iec61850.IedConnection_getLogicalDeviceList(con)
|
|
device = iec61850.LinkedList_getNext(deviceList)
|
|
|
|
while device:
|
|
print("LD: %s" % iec61850.toCharP(device.data))
|
|
[logicalNodes, error] = iec61850.IedConnection_getLogicalDeviceDirectory(
|
|
con, iec61850.toCharP(device.data))
|
|
device = iec61850.LinkedList_getNext(device)
|
|
iec61850.LinkedList_destroy(deviceList)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Reading and writing operations can be performed using this syntax:
|
|
```python
|
|
[floatValue, error] = iec61850.IedConnection_readFloatValue(con,
|
|
"simpleIOGenericIO/GGIO1.AnIn1.mag.f", iec61850.IEC61850_FC_MX)
|
|
err = iec61850.IedConnection_writeFloatValue(con,
|
|
"simpleIOGenericIO/GGIO1.AnIn1.mag.f", iec61850.IEC61850_FC_MX, 10.0)
|
|
```
