RIOT integration into IoT-LAB
Check the Wiki to see how to build and run RIOT on FIT IoT-LAB: https://github.com/iot-lab/iot-lab/wiki/Riot-support
Control IoT-LAB via Make
Requirements
This feature requires to have a valid account for the FIT IoT-LAB (registration there is open for everyone) and the iot-lab/cli-tools to be installed.
Description
The folder dist/testbed-support/ contains a Makefile.iotlab that defines
some targets to control RIOT experiments on IoT-LAB using the GNU Make build
system. In order to use this, one has to include this Makefile at the end of
the application's Makefile, like this:
include $(RIOTBASE)/dist/testbed-support/Makefile.iotlab
Variables
This Makefile introduces some additional variables (default values in brackets):
- IOTLAB_NODES (5)
- IOTLAB_DURATION (30 minutes)
- IOTLAB_SITE (grenoble.iot-lab.info)
- IOTLAB_TYPE (m3:at86rf231)
- IOTLAB_AUTH ($HOME/.iotlabrc)
- IOTLAB_USER (taken from $IOTLAB_AUTH)
- IOTLAB_EXP_ID (taken from first experiment in running state)
Targets
It defines the following targets:
- iotlab-exp
- iotlab-flash
- iotlab-reset
- iotlab-term
Please note: All targets that require an already running experiment will
use the first experiment of the user that has already entered state "Running"
if IOTLAB_EXP_ID is not set.
iotlab-exp
This schedules a new experiment on the FIT IoT-LAB and waits until it enters
"Running" state. It will request IOTLAB_NODES nodes of type IOTLAB_TYPE
for IOTLAB_DURATION minutes at site IOTLAB_SITE. It will also flash the
binary of the current application to all registered nodes. The name of the
experiment is set to "riot_makefile_experiment"
iotlab-flash
This target updates the application on all registered nodes of the given experiment to the current version of the application.
iotlab-reset
This target resets all registered nodes of the given experiment.
iotlab-term
Uses ssh to login the user on the IoT-LAB server of the specified site and
start the serial_aggregator to communication with all registered nodes.
