Installation (C++)

• Clone this repository
• Add to your CMakeLists.txt:

add_subdirectory(path_to_repo/SMI/)

target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} PRIVATE SMI)
target_include_directories(${PROJECT_NAME} PRIVATE ${SMI_INCLUDE_DIRS})

• Integrate the library into your project:

#include <Communicator.h>
...
SMI::Communicator comm(peer_id, num_peers, "config/smi.json", "MyApp", 512);

Installation (Python)

• Clone this repository

cd python
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

• smi.so gets created in the python/build directory. You can copy it into your Python module path or include the build directory via PYTHONPATH. The library can then be integrated into your project:

import smi
comm = smi.Communicator(peer_id, num_peers, "config/smi.json", "MyApp", 512);

Docker Container

The Docker containers SMI-build-docker contain all necessary dependencies and set up the environment for you. See the repo for details.

Examples

C++ sample code for the library is available at tests/communicator.cpp, the usage from Python is demonstrated in python/tests/client.py.
