[Mini-NDN] Run mini-ndn and xterm together

[Ashlesh Gawande (agawande)]

Yes this is one way of doing things. I am not sure of the reason but some times HOME is not set correctly in xterm. So you can just do:


export HOME=/tmp/minindn/a

(export HOME=/<work-dir>/<node-name>)

cd ~


Another way of doing this outside the xterm is that you can run the above commands outside of mini-ndn in a new terminal.


You can also use util/m command from mininet to run commands on nodes.

Hello All,
Short question -
I want to run consumer.cpp example from ndn-cxx inside mini-ndn topology. I use xterm for this. How does it work?
Basically, the things that works from minindn terminal are not working in xterm for hosts.

-----------------------
I am trying something fancy!

I followed following steps.

> sudo minindn
> ndnpingserver /ndn/d-site/d -x 10000 &> /home/lenovo/server.txt
> a ndnping /ndn/d-site/d -c 1 -n 1111      // works well

Now I try to run ndnping using xterm

> xterm a            (This opens up new terminal for host a and I try running the same commend from above)
root at lenovo-VirtualBox: ndnping /ndn/d-site/d
PING /ndn/d-site/d
ERROR: error while connecting to the forwarder (No such file or directory)

---------------

Questions,
1) Is it a correct way we can work with mini-ndn? What is the correct way to do this?

2) I want to run consumer example from ndn-cxx inside mini-ndn.
- open the x-term for host a
- run the consumer application from ndn-cxx.
./ndn-cxx/examples/consumer
Is it possible to do in mini-ndn?

I appreciate your time and help.

Aman
