Building CORE
./bootstrap.sh
./configure
make
sudo make install
Building Documentation
./bootstrap.sh
./configure
make doc
Building Packages
Install fpm: http://fpm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installing.html
Build package commands, DESTDIR is used for gui packaging only
./bootstrap.sh
./configure
make
mkdir /tmp/core-gui
make fpm DESTDIR=/tmp/core-gui
This will produce:
- CORE GUI rpm/deb files
- core-gui_$VERSION_$ARCH
- CORE ns3 rpm/deb files
- python-core-ns3_$VERSION_$ARCH
- CORE python rpm/deb files for SysV and systemd service types
- python-core-sysv_$VERSION_$ARCH
- python-core-systemd_$VERSION_$ARCH
Running CORE
First start the CORE services:
# sysv
sudo service core-daemon start
# systemd
sudo systemctl start core-daemon
This automatically runs the core-daemon program. Assuming the GUI is in your PATH, run the CORE GUI by typing the following:
core-gui
This launches the CORE GUI. You do not need to run the GUI as root.
