OutNetwork

class sharpy.io.network_interface.OutNetwork(host=None, port=None)

Output network socket settings

If send_on_demand is True, SHARPy will only output data when it receives a request for it. The request message can be any message under 1024 bytes. SHARPy will reply to the socket that sent the request with the latest time step information. Otherwise, it will send data at the end of each time step to the specified destination clients.

If the NetworkLoader setting send_output_to_all_clients is True, then the clients from which the input signal is received will also be added to the destination client address book.

Note

If sending/receiving data across the net or LAN, make sure that your firewall has the desired ports open, otherwise the signals will not make it through.

The settings that this solver accepts are given by a dictionary, with the following key-value pairs:

Name	Type	Description	Default
address	str	Own network address.	127.0.0.1
port	int	Own port for output network	65000
send_on_demand	bool	Waits for a signal demanding the output data. Else, sends to destination buffer	True
destination_address	list(str)	List of addresses to send output data. If send_on_demand is False this is a required setting.	[]
destination_ports	list(int)	List of ports number for the destination addresses.	[]
