# phawd_py: Python binding for phawd

&emsp;&emsp;[phawd](https://github.com/HuNingHe/phawd) is a lightweight and cross-platform software based on QT5, mainly used for robot simulation, programming and debugging, which is the abbreviation of Parameter Handler And Waveform Displayer. 

&emsp;&emsp;Here is the python binding of phawd core functions, mainly contains the interface between the robot controller written in Python and phawd software.

## 0 Installation

&emsp;&emsp;On Windows10 or Linux:

```shell
pip install phawd
```

&emsp;&emsp;MacOS is not supported for now.

## 1 Build from source

### 1.1 Prerequisites

* A compiler with C++11 support (gcc/g++ is recommended under Linux, MSVC is mandatory under Windows)

* CMake >= 3.14 (Make sure that you can use cmake on the command line)

* Pip 10+

### 1.2 command

&emsp;&emsp;Just clone this repository and pip install. Note the `--recursive` option which is needed for the pybind11 submodule:

```bash
git clone --recursive https://github.com/HuNingHe/phawd_py.git
pip install ./phawd_py
```

## 2 Using cibuildwheel 

&emsp;&emsp;[cibuildwheel](https://cibuildwheel.readthedocs.io) used for building python wheels across **Mac, Linux, Windows**, on **multiple versions of Python**. The steps are as follows: 

```shell
pip install cibuildwheel
git clone --recursive https://github.com/HuNingHe/phawd_py.git
cd phawd_py

# on windows
cibuildwheel --platform windows

# on linux
cibuildwheel --platform linux
```

&emsp;&emsp;Then you will get 36 python wheels. For example, you can then install phawd_py by:

```shell
cd wheelhouse
# this depends on your system and python version
pip install phawd-0.1-cp311-cp311-manylinux_2_17_x86_64.manylinux2014_x86_64.whl
```

## 3 SharedMemory example

### 3.1 Prerequisites in phawd

&emsp;&emsp;phawd's yaml file is as follows:

```yaml
RobotName: shm_demo
Type: Shared Memory
WaveParamNum: 3
DOUBLE:
  p_d: 3.14159
S64:
  p_s64: 31
VEC3_DOUBLE:
  p_vec3d: [1, 2, 3]
```

&emsp;&emsp;Read this file using phawd, and click ready button. Then run the code demo as below.

### 3.2 code demo

&emsp;&emsp;A robot controller program example using sharedmemory to communicate with phawd software:

```python
# robot controller
from phawd import SharedMemory, SharedParameters, ParameterCollection, Parameter
if __name__ == '__main__':
    num_ctr_params = 3
    num_wave_params = 3
    shm_size = SharedParameters.__sizeof__() + (num_ctr_params + num_wave_params) * Parameter.__sizeof__()
    shm = SharedMemory()
    shm.attach(name="shm_demo", size=shm_size)
    sp = shm.get()
    params = sp.getParameters()

    print('numControlParams: {}'.format(sp.numControlParams))
    print('numWaveParams: {}'.format(sp.numWaveParams))
    print('p_d name: {}; ValueKind: {}; Value: {}'.format(params[0].getName(), params[0].getValueKind(), params[0].getDouble()))
    print('p_s64 name: {}; ValueKind: {}; Value: {}'.format(params[1].getName(), params[1].getValueKind(), params[1].getS64()))
    print('p_vec3d name: {}; ValueKind: {}; Value: {}'.format(params[2].getName(), params[2].getValueKind(), params[2].getVec3d()))

    pw0 = Parameter("pw0", 5)
    pw1 = Parameter("pw1", 3.14)
    pw2 = Parameter("pw2", [1, 2, 3])

    sp.setParameters([pw0, pw1, pw2])
    sp.connected += 1  # This is important, otherwise phawd will not be able to detect the writing of data

    # If you have a lot of parameters, and it is inconvenient to process by index, you may wish to try ParameterCollection
    pc = ParameterCollection()
    sp.collectParameters(pc)

    print("p_d value in ParameterCollection: {}".format(pc.lookup("p_d").getDouble()))
    print("p_s64 value in ParameterCollection: {}".format(pc.lookup("p_s64").getS64()))
    print("p_vec3d value in ParameterCollection: {}".format(pc.lookup("p_vec3d").getVec3d()))
    sp.connected -= 1  # suggest to do this
```

### 3.3 Result

- Print control parameter informations at console
- You can select curves to add in phawd

## 4 Socket example

### 4.1 Prerequisites in phawd

&emsp;&emsp;phawd's yaml file is as follows:

```yaml
RobotName: 5230
Type: Socket
WaveParamNum: 3
DOUBLE:
  p_d: 3.14159
S64:
  p_s64: 31
VEC3_DOUBLE:
  p_vec3d: [1, 2, 3]
```

&emsp;&emsp;Read this file using phawd, and click ready button. Then run the code demo as below.

### 4.2 code demo

&emsp;&emsp;A robot controller program example using Socket to communicate with phawd software:

```python
# robot controller
from phawd import SocketToPhawd, SocketFromPhawd, SocketConnect, Parameter

if __name__ == '__main__':
    num_ctr_params = 3
    num_wave_params = 3
    send_size = Parameter.__sizeof__() * num_wave_params + SocketToPhawd.__sizeof__()
    read_size = Parameter.__sizeof__() * num_ctr_params + SocketFromPhawd.__sizeof__()
    sc = SocketConnect()
    sc.init(send_size, read_size, False)
    ret = sc.connectToServer("127.0.0.1", 5230, 30)
    iter_c = 0

    pw0 = Parameter("pw0", 5)
    pw1 = Parameter("pw1", 3.14)
    pw2 = Parameter("pw2", [1, 2, 3])

    while iter_c < 500000:
        iter_c += 1
        socket_to_phawd = sc.getSend()
        socket_to_phawd.numWaveParams = 3
        socket_to_phawd.parameters = [pw0, pw1, pw2]
        sc.send()
        ret = sc.read()

        if ret > 0:
            socket_from_phawd = sc.getRead()
            ctrl_params = socket_from_phawd.parameters
            print("numControlParams: {}".format(socket_from_phawd.numControlParams))
            print('p_d name: {}; ValueKind: {}; Value: {}'.format(ctrl_params[0].getName(), ctrl_params[0].getValueKind(), ctrl_params[0].getDouble()))
            print('p_s64 name: {}; ValueKind: {}; Value: {}'.format(ctrl_params[1].getName(), ctrl_params[1].getValueKind(), ctrl_params[1].getS64()))
            print('p_vec3d name: {}; ValueKind: {}; Value: {}'.format(ctrl_params[2].getName(), ctrl_params[2].getValueKind(), ctrl_params[2].getVec3d()))
```

### 4.3 Result

- Once you modify the parameter in phawd software, this program will print parameter informations at console
- You can select curves to add in phawd

## 5 Notation

- Parameters of type FLOAT and VEC3_FLOAT  are not supported in phawd_py
- For other tutorials on phawd_py, you can refer to the tests/test.py
