HOW TO BUILD

1. install dependencies from packages (see above)

2. install rpcz

   cd 3rdparty/rpcz
   mkdir build
   cd build
   cmake ..
   make
   sudo make install
   cd ../python
   python setup.py install

3. compile interfaces

   ./compile_interfaces.sh

4. a) compile for development (into install/)

   ./build_debug.sh

   OR

5. b) compile for release (into /usr/local)

   ./build_release.sh

6. optionally install python VTServer client

   cd pyclient
   python setup.py install

HOW TO RUN

Development server:

1. configure ./vtapi_debug.conf
2. run vtserver: ./run_vtserver_debug.sh

Release server:

1. create config file like ./vtapi_example.conf
2. run vtserver: vtserver --config=/path/to/config.conf

Testing the server:

1. install python VTServer client (see above)
2. create testing python script, eg.:

   import vtclient.client as vtclient
   cl = vtclient.VTServerClient("tcp://127.0.0.1:8719")
   addDataset = cl.call('addDataset', {'name': 'test_dataset'})
   print cl.call('getDatasetList', {})
   cl.call('deleteDataset', {'dataset_id': addDataset['dataset_id']})
