Python Wheels for different simulators

This repository contains python wheels for the simulators used by cohydra.

It so far tested with Python 3.7. Use the following command to install ns-3.33 from the wheel:

sudo pip3 install "https://github.com/osmhpi/python-wheels/releases/latest/download/ns-3.33-py3-none-linux_x86_64.whl"

Troubleshooting

Problems with nacl dependency

After installing the wheel and trying to run cohydra with the dependencies from the wheel, it can happen that nacl does not work anymore. During the execution of cohydra it tried to use nacl._sodium as part of the dependency paramiko, but didn't found it anymore.

To solve this problem, reinstall nacl:

sudo pip3 uninstall pynacl
sudo pip3 install pynacl

If you are facing issues during the uninstall of pynacl (pip does not want to uninstall the package), run:

sudo apt remove python3-pip

and reinstall it like it is described here: https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/

I have python 3.6.x or older

Run:

sudo apt install python3.7

to install python 3.7. And follow these instructions afterwards: https://jcutrer.com/linux/upgrade-python37-ubuntu1810
