REST API (experimental)
-----------------------
This repository extends GNPy with additional interfaces, allowing for more flexible control and interaction with its simulation engine. These interfaces can be used to integrate GNPy into software-defined networking (SDN) architectures or other external applications.
[GNPy](https://github.com/Telecominfraproject/oopt-gnpy) is an open-source Python-based library that models and evaluates the performance of optical networks. It is widely used for path computation, QoT (Quality of Transmission) estimation, and network planning.
## 🚀 Installation
### Build from Source - Option 1
Clone the repository and install the package:
```bash
python3 setup.py install
```
or if you want to install it in a docker container:
```bash
docker docker build ./ -t gnpy-api
```
### PiPy - Option 2
```bash
pip install gnpy-api
```
### DockerHub - Option 3
Coming....
## Quick Start
## 🧪 Usage - CLI
Start the REST API server:
```bash
python ./samples/rest_example.py
```
See the help for the REST API:
```bash
python ./samples/rest_example.py -h
```
Send example data to the REST API:
```bash
curl --location 'https://localhost:8080/api/v0.1/path-request' --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --data @gnpyapi/exampledata/planning_demand_example.json -k
```
## 🧪 Usage - Docker
## 🔄 Compatibility
Different versions of this interface extension are compatible with specific versions of [GNPy](https://github.com/Telecominfraproject/oopt-gnpy). Please refer to the table below to ensure that you are using a supported version combination.
| Interface Version | Compatible GNPy Version | Notes |
|-------------------|-----------------|--------------------------------|
| `v0.1.x` | `>=2.12.1` | Initial release |
⚠️ If you use an incompatible combination, some features may not work correctly or may produce unexpected errors.
To check your GNPy version, run:
```bash
pip show gnpy
```
