Dune data visualizer Alpha

Step 0, ensure GIT, NPM and Python3 are installed on the host machine:

On linux run something like (package manager dependant): "sudo apt install NPM", "sudo dnf install NPM", "yum install NPM", etc...
Similiar syntax for python "sudo apt install Python3", "sudo dnf install Python3", "yum install Python3", etc...
Something like "sudo apt install git", etc...

Step 1, run GIT clone this repo onto the machine that will host the network visualizer tool:

In a terminal type "git clone https://github.com/DUNE/data-mgmt-testing.git"

Next install the "forever" package for NPM

(from root or with SUDO)

Ex: sudo npm install forever -g

Now CD into the data-mgmt-testing directory that was cloned earlier

Running for the first time, use the script setupEverything.sh, located in /data-mgmt-testing/NetworkVisualizer1.0/

To do first time setup run "sh setupEverything.sh" in the aforementioned directory

estimated time: ~5 minuets

After that run the included start and stop scripts as follows:

To start: run "sh startEverything.sh"

Ex: sh startEverything.sh

estimated time: ~8 minuets

After which a browser window should launch with the network visualization.

At this point the software will stay running, even after logout, until stopped with the "stopEverything.sh" script is run

To stop: run "sh stopEverything.sh"
