using dot into device names

[PhilLAL]

Hi, as just discussed, I encounter an issue while trying to generating a simulator from a DS named with a dot : ./gen_simulation.py export RDP1.txt RDP1_attributes.pck

The content of file RDP1.txt is the following: er/ca/rac05-elr.01-rdp1

The original DS is currently running on a computer so it works.

I imagine a temporary solution would be to use alias or to temporarly install the DS without a dot (but all our nomenclature is based on dot).

Hi, just a reminder. FYI, I try in parallel to test alias but without success currently.

Hi Philippe,

I'm still on medical leave, but coming back tomorrow

Thanks for the reminder and I'll try to provide you a solution

Thanks, and cheers

Hi, for information, I created an alias with success, but when launching fandango -l find_devices "redpitaya" > RDP1.txt I got an empty file.

Hi PhiLAL,

Sorry for the late feedback, I'll try to give it a look

Hi Sergi, I will be off for 2 next weeks, but if you have some time to give or insights to give on this, it would be great.:)

Hi Philippe,

I just pushed a fix to the develop branch, I'm working on other fixes but this should solve the export problem.

Sorry for the late commit,

Sergi

Hi Sergi, thank you for your fix, I will test it soon. Hope you had a nice summer. :)

Hi Sergi, I installed the new version through pip install [local fandango repo] and I tested this new version under TANGO9 on debian 9

To test it, I launched fandango -l find_devices "er/*/*" > essai/redpitaya.txt. The content of generated file essai/redpitaya.txt seems correct:

er/ca/rac05-elr.01-rdp1

However, when generating PCK file, the content is not correct:

$ cd ~/SimulatorDS/essai
$ ~/SimulatorDS/gen_simulation.py export redpitaya.txt redpitaya.pck 
Welcome to the generic simulation script
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
export_attributes from:(['redpitaya.txt'], 'redpitaya.pck')
devices to export: []
['export'] done
$ cat essai/redpitaya.pck 
ccollections
defaultdict
p0
(cfandango.objects
Struct
p1
tp2
Rp3
.

I also tested it on TANGO 8/Debian 8 a slightly different DS with same result : fandango -l find_devices "ER/CA/RAC.05-ELR.01-RDP.01" > ER__CA__RAC_05-ELR_01-RDP_01.pck then

$ gen_simulation.py export ER__CA__RAC_05-ELR_01-RDP_01.pck RedPitaya.pck
Welcome to the generic simulation script
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
export_attributes from:(['ER__CA__RAC_05-ELR_01-RDP_01.pck'], 'RedPitaya.pck')
devices to export: []
['export'] done

The generated file has exactly the same content.

I just updated pip with latest release 13.9

Please, try again

[PhilLAL]

Seems much more complete, thank you for this update Sergi!
