Prerequisites

Before running the scripts in this project, make sure that the Python bindings for libiio (pylibiio) are properly installed on your system. For installation instructions and additional information refer to the official wiki page

XML generation: xml_generator.py

The xml_generator.py script generates an XML representation of the current libiio context.

  • Stores the current libiio context in XML format.
  • By default, the resulting XML file is stored in a ./results directory relative to the path where xml_generator.py is located. The directory is created if it does not exist.

Usage example:

python3 xml_generator.py \
    --uri ip:192.168.2.1 \
    --filename v0_XX.xml

Compare iio state: iio_diff.py

The iio_diff.py script compares a reference context with a target context using XML files. It identifies and highlights the differences between the two contexts:

  • Common Attributes: Attributes present in both the reference and target contexts. New Attributes: Attributes added in the target context but not present in the reference context.
  • Missing Attributes: Attributes present in the reference context but missing in the target context.
  • Note: The reference context can be compared against a target context loaded from an XML file or by providing a URI to a connected board.

The iio_diff.py script is designed to compare a reference context and a target context using XML files.

Usage:

# Target context created from a URI
python3 iio_diff.py \
        --reference_file ./results/v0_32.xml \
        --uri ip:192.168.2.2    

# Target context created from an XML file
python3 iio_diff.py \
        --reference_file ./results/v0_32.xml \
        --target_file  ./results/v0_31.xml
