This is the README for the Python API and modules in the NetLogger Toolkit, otherwise known as "NetLogger-Python"

Installation

All files install with the Python distutils script, setup.py. To install in the default location:

$ python setup.py install

This script requires that you have installed the Python easy_install utility. If this is missing on your system, run this:

$ wget http://peak.telecommunity.com/dist/ez_setup.py python ez_setup.py

Dependencies

Other external dependencies automatically installed by the setup.py script: http://pypi.python.org/simple/magicdate/

Manual pages

To install the manual pages for the NetLogger tools, which can be found under the "scripts" directory, you need to manually build them with the following procedure:

$ cd doc/tools
# edit Makefile, change 'mandir' to point at installation location
$ make
# messages about building files..
$ make install

Usage

The tools installed in the installation bin/ directory all respond to the -h option, and should have a reasonable up-to-date manual page.
