# WireST SDK

WireST SDK is a library for Linux gateways that allows easy access to the data exported by an IO-Link device that implements the [IOLinkST Protocol](https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/WireSTSDK_Python#IOLinkST-protocol).


## Documentation
Documentation can be found [here](https://stmicroelectronics.github.io/WireSTSDK_Python/index.html).


## Compatibility
This version of the SDK is compatible with [Python](https://www.python.org/) 3.5 and runs on a Linux system.


## Preconditions
The WireST SDK makes use of the [pySerial](https://github.com/pyserial/pyserial) Python interface to serial ports on Linux.
  ```Shell
  $ sudo pip3 install pyserial
  ```
Moreover, it uses the [concurrent.futures](https://docs.python.org/3/library/concurrent.futures.html) module to run pools of threads in background, that serve listeners' callbacks.
  ```Shell
  $ sudo pip3 install futures
  ```


## Installation
The WireST SDK can be installed through the Python pip package manager.
  ```Shell
  $ sudo pip3 install wire-st-sdk
  ```


## Setting up the application examples
Before running the application examples, please prepare your devices as described here below:
 * The [example_iolink_1.py](https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/WireSTSDK_Python/blob/master/wire_st_examples/iolink/example_iolink_1.py) application example shows how to connect IO-Link devices to a Linux gateway, to set their parameters, and to get data from them. The application requires to have a masterboard, e.g. the STEVAL-IPD004V1 evaluation board, connected to IO-Link devices, e.g. the STEVAL-IPD005V1 evaluation board, with a FW compatible with the [IOLinkST Protocol](https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/WireSTSDK_Python#IOLinkST-protocol).

Other application examples which show how to send data to the cloud can be found within the [EdgeST SDK](https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/EdgeSTSDK_Python) for Linux, an IoT edge computing abstraction library for Linux gateways.


## Running the application examples
To run the application examples please follow the steps below:
 1. Install the WireST SDK as described by the [Installation](https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/WireSTSDK_Python#installation) chapter.
 2. Clone the WireST SDK git repository to download the application examples:
    ```Shell
    $ git clone https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/WireSTSDK_Python.git
    ```
 3. Enter the "wire_st_examples/iolink" folder and run the desired script:
    ```Shell
    $ sudo python3 example_iolink_x.py
    ```
