The Redis data store contains the configuration for all the microservices, the current value table, as well as data streams containing decommutated data. The Minio data store contains plugins, targets, configuration data, text logs as well as binary logs of all the raw, decommutated, and reduced data.

For example: COMMAND TARGET COLLECT BIG_ENDIAN "Collect command" The keyword is COMMAND and the parameters are TARGET, COLLECT, BIG_ENDIAN, and "Collect command". Keywords are parsed by COSMOS and parameters are checked for validity. Parameters can be required or optional although required parameters always come first. Some parameters have a limited set of valid values. For example, the COMMAND keyword above has the following documentation: PARAMETER\tDESCRIPTION\tREQUIREDTarget\tName of the target this command is associated with\tTrue Command\tName of this command. Also referred to as its mnemonic. Must be unique to commands to this target.

ERB is a templating system for Ruby which allows you to use Ruby logic and variables to generate text files. There are two basic forms of ERB: <% Ruby code -- no output %> <%= Ruby expression -- insert result %> In a COSMOS Telemetry configuration file we could write the following: <% (1..5).each do |i| %> APPEND_ITEM VALUE<%= i %> 16 UINT "Value <%= i %> setting" <% end %> The first line is Ruby code which iterates from 1 up to and including 5 and places the value in the variable i. The code inside the block will be output to the file every time the iteration runs. The APPEND_ITEM line uses the value of i and directly outputs it to the file by using the <%= syntax. The result of the parsing will look like the following: APPEND_ITEM VALUE1 16 UINT "Value 1 setting" APPEND_ITEM VALUE2 16 UINT "Value 2 setting" APPEND_ITEM VALUE3 16 UINT "Value 3 setting" APPEND_ITEM VALUE4 16 UINT "Value 4 setting" APPEND_ITEM VALUE5 16 UINT "Value 5 setting" COSMOS uses ERB syntax extensively in a Plugin's plugin.txt configuration file.

The render method takes a parameter which is the name of the configuration file to inject into the top level file. This file is required to start with underscore to avoid being processed as a regular configuration file. This file is called a partial since it's part of a larger file. For example, _ccsds_apid.txt is defined as follows: APPEND_ID_ITEM CCSDSAPID 11 UINT <%= apid %> "CCSDS application process id" This would result in output as follows: TELEMETRY INST HEALTH_STATUS BIG_ENDIAN "Health and status" APPEND_ID_ITEM CCSDSAPID 11 UINT 1 "CCSDS application process id" APPEND_ITEM COLLECTS 16 UINT "Number of collects" ... Note the variable apid was set to 1 using the locals: syntax. This is a very powerful way to add common headers and footer to every packet definition.

However, creating custom Interfaces is still useful for defaulting parameters to values that always are fixed for your target and for including the necessary Protocols. The base COSMOS Interfaces take a lot of parameters that can be confusing to your end users. Thus you may want to create a custom Interface just to hard coded these values and cut the available parameters down to something like the hostname and port to connect to. All custom Protocols should derive from the Protocol class found in the COSMOS gem at lib/openc3/interfaces/protocols/protocol.rb. This class defines the 9 methods that are relevant to writing your own protocol. The base class implementation for each method is included below as well as a discussion as to how the methods should be overridden and used in your own Protocols. To really understand how Protocols work, you first must understand the logic within the base Interface class read and write methods. Let's first discuss the read method. On EVERY call to read, an empty Ruby string "" is first passed down to each of the read Protocol's read_data() method BEFORE new raw data is attempted to be read using the Interface's read_interface() method. This is a signal to Protocols that have cached up more than one packet worth of data to output those cached packets before any new data is read from the Interface. Typically no data will be cached up and one of the Protocols read_data() methods will return :STOP in response to the empty string, indicating that more data is required to generate a packet. Each Protocol's read_data() method can return one of three things: data that will be passed down to any additional Protocols or turned into a Packet, :STOP which means more data is required from the Interface for the Protocol to continue, or :DISCONNECT which means that something has happened that requires disconnecting the Interface (and by default trying to reconnect). Each Protocol's read_data method is passed the data that will eventually be turned into a packet and returns a possibly modified set of data. If the data passes through all Protocol's read_data() methods it is then converted into a COSMOS packet using the Interface's convert_data_to_packet() method. This packet is then run in a similar fashion through each Read Protocol's read_packet() method. This method has essentially the same return possibilities: a Packet (instead of data as in read_data()), :STOP, or :DISCONNECT. If the Packet makes it through all read_packet() methods then the Interface packet read counter is incremented and the Packet is returned to the Interface. The Interface write() method works very similarly to read. (It should be mentioned that by default write protocols run in the reverse order of read protocols. This makes sense because when reading you're typically stripping layers of data and when writing you're typically adding on layers in reverse order.) First, the packet write counter is incremented. Then each write Protocol is given a chance to modify the packet by its write_packet() method being called. This method can either return a potentially modified packet, :STOP, or :DISCONNECT. If a write Protocol returns :STOP no data will be written out the Interface and it is assumed that more packets are necessary before a final packet can be output. :DISCONNECT will disconnect the Interface. If the packet makes it through all the write Protocol's write_packet() methods, then it is converted to binary data using the Interface's convert_packet_to_data() method. Next the write_data() method is called for each write Protocol giving it a chance to modify the lower level data. The same return options are available except a Ruby string of data is returned instead of a COSMOS packet. If the data makes it through all write_data() methods, then it is written out on the Interface using the write_interface() method. Afterwards, each Protocol's post_write_interface() method is called with both the final modified Packet, and the actual data written out to the Interface. This method allows follow-up such as waiting for a response after writing out a message.

If :DISCONNECT is returned then the Protocol believes the Interface should be disconnected (and typically automatically reconnected). Note that only the first parameter "packet", is checked to be :STOP, or :DISCONNECT on the return. Base Class Implementation: def post_write_interface(packet, data) return packet, data end The base class always just returns the packet/data given.

Laser will be fired!" WRITE_CONVERSION​ Applies a conversion when writing the current command parameter Conversions are implemented in a custom Ruby file which should be located in the target's lib folder and required by the target's target.txt file (see REQUIRE). The class must require 'openc3/conversions/conversion' and inherit from Conversion. It must implement the initialize method if it takes extra parameters and must always implement the call method. The conversion factor is applied to the value entered by the user before it is written into the binary command packet and sent. Multiple write conversions on command parameters When a command is built, each item gets written (and write conversions are run) to set the default value. Then items are written (again write conversions are run) with user provided values. Thus write conversions can be run twice. Also there are no guarantees which parameters have already been written. The packet itself has a given_values() method which can be used to retrieve a hash of the user provided values to the command. That can be used to check parameter values passed in. Parameter\tDescription\tRequiredClass Filename\tThe filename which contains the Ruby class. The filename must be named after the class such that the class is a CamelCase version of the underscored filename. For example, 'the_great_conversion.rb' should contain 'class TheGreatConversion'.\tTrue Parameter\tAdditional parameter values for the conversion which are passed to the class constructor.\tFalse Example Usage: WRITE_CONVERSION the_great_conversion.rb 1000 Defined in the_great_conversion.rb: require 'openc3/conversions/conversion' module OpenC3 class TheGreatConversion < Conversion def initialize(multiplier) super() @multiplier = multiplier.to_f end def call(value, packet, buffer) return value * multiplier end end end POLY_WRITE_CONVERSION​ Adds a polynomial conversion factor to the current command parameter The conversion factor is applied to the value entered by the user before it is written into the binary command packet and sent. Parameter\tDescription\tRequiredC0\tCoefficient\tTrue Cx\tAdditional coefficient values for the conversion. Any order polynomial conversion may be used so the value of 'x' will vary with the order of the polynomial. Note that larger order polynomials take longer to process than shorter order polynomials, but are sometimes more accurate.\tFalse Example Usage: POLY_WRITE_CONVERSION 10 0.5 0.25 SEG_POLY_WRITE_CONVERSION​ Adds a segmented polynomial conversion factor to the current command parameter This conversion factor is applied to the value entered by the user before it is written into the binary command packet and sent. Parameter\tDescription\tRequiredLower Bound\tDefines the lower bound of the range of values that this segmented polynomial applies to. Is ignored for the segment with the smallest lower bound.\tTrue C0\tCoefficient\tTrue Cx\tAdditional coefficient values for the conversion. Any order polynomial conversion may be used so the value of 'x' will vary with the order of the polynomial. Note that larger order polynomials take longer to process than shorter order polynomials, but are sometimes more accurate.\tFalse Example Usage: SEG_POLY_WRITE_CONVERSION 0 10 0.5 0.25 # Apply the conversion to all values < 50 SEG_POLY_WRITE_CONVERSION 50 11 0.5 0.275 # Apply the conversion to all values >= 50 and < 100 SEG_POLY_WRITE_CONVERSION 100 12 0.5 0.3 # Apply the conversion to all values >= 100 GENERIC_WRITE_CONVERSION_START​ Start a generic write conversion Adds a generic conversion function to the current command parameter. This conversion factor is applied to the value entered by the user before it is written into the binary command packet and sent. The conversion is specified as ruby code that receives two implied parameters. 'value' which is the raw value being written and 'packet' which is a reference to the command packet class (Note, referencing the packet as 'myself' is still supported for backwards compatibility). The last line of ruby code given should return the converted value. The GENERIC_WRITE_CONVERSION_END keyword specifies that all lines of ruby code for the conversion have been given. Multiple write conversions on command parameters When a command is built, each item gets written (and write conversions are run) to set the default value. Then items are written (again write conversions are run) with user provided values. Thus write conversions can be run twice. Also there are no guarantees which parameters have already been written. The packet itself has a given_values() method which can be used to retrieve a hash of the user provided values to the command. That can be used to check parameter values passed in. Generic conversions are not a good long term solution. Consider creating a conversion class and using WRITE_CONVERSION instead. WRITE_CONVERSION is easier to debug and higher performance. Example Usage: APPEND_PARAMETER ITEM1 32 UINT 0 0xFFFFFFFF 0 GENERIC_WRITE_CONVERSION_START (value * 1.5).to_i # Convert the value by a scale factor GENERIC_WRITE_CONVERSION_END GENERIC_WRITE_CONVERSION_END​ Complete a generic write conversion OVERFLOW​ Set the behavior when writing a value overflows the type By default OpenC3 throws an error if you try to write a value which overflows its specified type, e.g. writing 255 to a 8 bit signed value. Setting the overflow behavior also allows for OpenC3 to 'TRUNCATE' the value by eliminating any high order bits. You can also set 'SATURATE' which causes OpenC3 to replace the value with the maximum or minimum allowable value for that type. Finally you can specify 'ERROR_ALLOW_HEX' which will allow for a maximum hex value to be writen, e.g. you can successfully write 255 to a 8 bit signed value. Parameter\tDescription\tRequiredBehavior\tHow OpenC3 treats an overflow value. Only applies to signed and unsigned integer data types. Valid Values: ERROR, ERROR_ALLOW_HEX, TRUNCATE, SATURATE\tTrue Example Usage: OVERFLOW TRUNCATE HIDDEN​ Indicates that the parameter should not be shown to the user in the Table Manager GUI Hidden parameters still exist and will be saved to the resulting binary. This is useful for padding and other essential but non-user editable fields. UNEDITABLE​ Indicates that the parameter should be shown to the user but not editable. Uneditable parameters are useful for control fields which the user may be interested in but should not be able to edit.

One large file can be used to define the command packets, or multiple files can be used at the user's discretion. Command definition files are placed in the target's cmd_tlm directory and are processed alphabetically. Therefore if you have some command files that depend on others, e.g. they override or extend existing commands, they must be named last. The easist way to do this is to add an extension to an existing file name. For example, if you already have cmd.txt you can create cmd_override.txt for commands that depends on the definitions in cmd.txt. Also note that due to the way the ASCII Table is structured, files beginning with capital letters are processed before lower case letters. When defining command parameters you can choose from the following data types: INT, UINT, FLOAT, STRING, BLOCK. These correspond to integers, unsigned integers, floating point numbers, strings and binary blocks of data. The only difference between a STRING and BLOCK is when COSMOS reads the binary command log it stops reading a STRING type when it encounters a null byte (0). This shows up in the text log produced by Data Extractor. Note that this does NOT affect the data COSMOS writes as it's still legal to pass null bytes (0) in STRING parameters.

Laser will be fired!" WRITE_CONVERSION​ Applies a conversion when writing the current command parameter Conversions are implemented in a custom Ruby file which should be located in the target's lib folder and required by the target's target.txt file (see REQUIRE). The class must require 'openc3/conversions/conversion' and inherit from Conversion. It must implement the initialize method if it takes extra parameters and must always implement the call method. The conversion factor is applied to the value entered by the user before it is written into the binary command packet and sent. Multiple write conversions on command parameters When a command is built, each item gets written (and write conversions are run) to set the default value. Then items are written (again write conversions are run) with user provided values. Thus write conversions can be run twice. Also there are no guarantees which parameters have already been written. The packet itself has a given_values() method which can be used to retrieve a hash of the user provided values to the command. That can be used to check parameter values passed in. Parameter\tDescription\tRequiredClass Filename\tThe filename which contains the Ruby class. The filename must be named after the class such that the class is a CamelCase version of the underscored filename. For example, 'the_great_conversion.rb' should contain 'class TheGreatConversion'.\tTrue Parameter\tAdditional parameter values for the conversion which are passed to the class constructor.\tFalse Example Usage: WRITE_CONVERSION the_great_conversion.rb 1000 Defined in the_great_conversion.rb: require 'openc3/conversions/conversion' module OpenC3 class TheGreatConversion < Conversion def initialize(multiplier) super() @multiplier = multiplier.to_f end def call(value, packet, buffer) return value * multiplier end end end POLY_WRITE_CONVERSION​ Adds a polynomial conversion factor to the current command parameter The conversion factor is applied to the value entered by the user before it is written into the binary command packet and sent. Parameter\tDescription\tRequiredC0\tCoefficient\tTrue Cx\tAdditional coefficient values for the conversion. Any order polynomial conversion may be used so the value of 'x' will vary with the order of the polynomial. Note that larger order polynomials take longer to process than shorter order polynomials, but are sometimes more accurate.\tFalse Example Usage: POLY_WRITE_CONVERSION 10 0.5 0.25 SEG_POLY_WRITE_CONVERSION​ Adds a segmented polynomial conversion factor to the current command parameter This conversion factor is applied to the value entered by the user before it is written into the binary command packet and sent. Parameter\tDescription\tRequiredLower Bound\tDefines the lower bound of the range of values that this segmented polynomial applies to. Is ignored for the segment with the smallest lower bound.\tTrue C0\tCoefficient\tTrue Cx\tAdditional coefficient values for the conversion. Any order polynomial conversion may be used so the value of 'x' will vary with the order of the polynomial. Note that larger order polynomials take longer to process than shorter order polynomials, but are sometimes more accurate.\tFalse Example Usage: SEG_POLY_WRITE_CONVERSION 0 10 0.5 0.25 # Apply the conversion to all values < 50 SEG_POLY_WRITE_CONVERSION 50 11 0.5 0.275 # Apply the conversion to all values >= 50 and < 100 SEG_POLY_WRITE_CONVERSION 100 12 0.5 0.3 # Apply the conversion to all values >= 100 GENERIC_WRITE_CONVERSION_START​ Start a generic write conversion Adds a generic conversion function to the current command parameter. This conversion factor is applied to the value entered by the user before it is written into the binary command packet and sent. The conversion is specified as ruby code that receives two implied parameters. 'value' which is the raw value being written and 'packet' which is a reference to the command packet class (Note, referencing the packet as 'myself' is still supported for backwards compatibility). The last line of ruby code given should return the converted value. The GENERIC_WRITE_CONVERSION_END keyword specifies that all lines of ruby code for the conversion have been given. Multiple write conversions on command parameters When a command is built, each item gets written (and write conversions are run) to set the default value. Then items are written (again write conversions are run) with user provided values. Thus write conversions can be run twice. Also there are no guarantees which parameters have already been written. The packet itself has a given_values() method which can be used to retrieve a hash of the user provided values to the command. That can be used to check parameter values passed in. Generic conversions are not a good long term solution. Consider creating a conversion class and using WRITE_CONVERSION instead. WRITE_CONVERSION is easier to debug and higher performance. Example Usage: APPEND_PARAMETER ITEM1 32 UINT 0 0xFFFFFFFF 0 GENERIC_WRITE_CONVERSION_START (value * 1.5).to_i # Convert the value by a scale factor GENERIC_WRITE_CONVERSION_END GENERIC_WRITE_CONVERSION_END​ Complete a generic write conversion OVERFLOW​ Set the behavior when writing a value overflows the type By default OpenC3 throws an error if you try to write a value which overflows its specified type, e.g. writing 255 to a 8 bit signed value. Setting the overflow behavior also allows for OpenC3 to 'TRUNCATE' the value by eliminating any high order bits. You can also set 'SATURATE' which causes OpenC3 to replace the value with the maximum or minimum allowable value for that type. Finally you can specify 'ERROR_ALLOW_HEX' which will allow for a maximum hex value to be writen, e.g. you can successfully write 255 to a 8 bit signed value. Parameter\tDescription\tRequiredBehavior\tHow OpenC3 treats an overflow value. Only applies to signed and unsigned integer data types.

One large file can be used to define the telemetry packets, or multiple files can be used at the user's discretion. Telemetry definition files are placed in the target's cmd_tlm directory and are processed alphabetically. Therefore if you have some telemetry files that depend on others, e.g. they override or extend existing telemetry, they must be named last. The easist way to do this is to add an extension to an existing file name. For example, if you already have tlm.txt you can create tlm_override.txt for telemetry that depends on the definitions in tlm.txt. Note that due to the way the ASCII Table is structured, files beginning with capital letters are processed before lower case letters. When defining telemetry items you can choose from the following data types: INT, UINT, FLOAT, STRING, BLOCK. These correspond to integers, unsigned integers, floating point numbers, strings and binary blocks of data. Within COSMOS, the only difference between a STRING and BLOCK is when COSMOS reads a STRING type it stops reading when it encounters a null byte (0). This shows up when displaying the value in Packet Viewer or Tlm Viewer and in the output of Data Extractor. You should strive to store non-ASCII data inside BLOCK items and ASCII strings in STRING items. Printing Data Most data types can be printed in a COSMOS script simply by doing puts tlm("TGT PKT ITEM"). However, if the ITEM is a BLOCK data type and contains binary (non-ASCII) data then that won't work. COSMOS comes with a built-in method called formatted to help you view binary data.

RECEIVED_TIME is the time that COSMOS receives the packet. This is set by the interface which is connected to the target and is receiving the raw data. Once a packet has been created out of the raw data the time is set. PACKET_TIME defaults to RECEIVED_TIME, but can be set as a derived item with a time object in the telemetry configuration file. This helps support stored telemetry packets so that they can be more reasonably handled by other COSMOS tools such as Telemetry Grapher and Data Extractor. You can set the 'stored' flag in your interface and the current value table is unaffected. The _TIMEFORMATTED items returns the date and time in a YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS.sss format and the _TIMESECONDS returns the Unix seconds of the time.

You'll also need NodeJS and yarn installed. Building COSMOS Note: We primarily develop COSMOS in MacOS so the commands here will reference bash scripts but the same files exist in Windows as batch scripts. Build COSMOS using the openc3.sh script: % ./openc3.sh build This will pull all the COSMOS container dependencies and build our local containers.

COSMOS 5 is released as containers and intended to be run as containers. However, for various reasons someone might want to run COSMOS directly on a host. These instructions will walk through getting COSMOS 5 installed and running directly on RHEL 7 or Centos 7. This configuration will create a working install, but falls short of the ideal in that it does not setup the COSMOS processes as proper services on the host OS (that restart themselves on boot, and maintain themselves running in case of errors). Contributions that add that functionality are welcome. Let's get started. The starting assumption is that you have a fresh install of either RHEL 7 or Centos 7. You are running as a normal user that has sudo permissions, and has git installed. Start by downloading the latest working version of COSMOS from Github cd ~ git clone https://github.com/openc3/cosmos.git Run the COSMOS installation script If you are feeling brave, you can run the one large installer script that installs everything in one step: cd cosmos/examples/hostinstall/centos7 ./openc3_install.sh Or, you may want to break it down to the same steps that are in that script, and make sure each individual step is successful: cd cosmos/examples/hostinstall/centos7 ./openc3_install_packages.sh ./openc3_install_ruby.sh ./openc3_install_redis.sh ./openc3_install_minio.sh ./openc3_install_traefik.sh ./openc3_install_openc3.sh ./openc3_start_services.sh ./openc3_first_init.sh If all was successful, you should be able to open Firefox, and goto: http://localhost:2900.

Either raw binary packets or decommutated JSON packets can be requested. This API is implemented over Websockets using the Rails ActionCable framework. Actioncable client libraries are known to exist for at least Javascript, Ruby, and Python. Other languages may exist or could be created. Websockets allow for easy interaction with the new COSMOS 5 Javascript based frontend. The following interactions are all shown in Javascript, but would be very similar in any language. Connecting to this API begins by initiating an ActionCable connection. cable = ActionCable.createConsumer('/openc3-api/cable') This call opens the HTTP connection to the given URL and upgrades it to a websocket connection. This connection can then be shared with multiple “subscriptions”. A subscription describes a set of data that you want the API to stream to you. Creating a subscription looks like this: subscription = cable.subscriptions.create( { channel: "StreamingChannel", scope: "DEFAULT", token: token, }, { received: (data) => { // Handle received data }, connected: () => { // First chance to add what you want to stream here }, disconnected: () => { // Handle the subscription being disconnected }, rejected: () => { // Handle the subscription being rejected }, } ); Subscribing to the StreamingApi requires passing a channel name set to “StreamingChannel”, a scope which is typically “DEFAULT”, and an access token (a password in OpenSource COSMOS). In Javascript you also pass a set of callback functions that run at various lifecycle points in the subscription. The most important of these are connected and received. connected runs when the subscription is accepted by the StreamApi. This callback is the first opportunity to request specific data that you would like streamed. Data can also be added or removed at any time while the subscription is open. Data can be added to the stream by requesting individual items from a packet or by requesting the entire packet. Adding items to stream is done as follows: var items = [ ["DECOM__TLM__INST__ADCS__Q1__RAW", "0"], ["DECOM__CMD__INST__COLLECT__DURATION__WITH_UNITS", "1"], ]; OpenC3Auth.updateToken(OpenC3Auth.defaultMinValidity).then(() => { this.subscription.perform("add", { scope: window.openc3Scope, token: localStorage.openc3Token, items: items, start_time: this.startDateTime, end_time: this.endDateTime, }); }); The values in the item name are separated by double underscores, e.g. <MODE>__<CMD or TLM>__<TARGET NAME>__<PACKET NAME>__<ITEM NAME>__<VALUE TYPE>__<REDUCED TYPE>. Mode is either RAW, DECOM, REDUCED_MINUTE, REDUCED_HOUR, or REDUCED_DAY. The next parameter is CMD or TLM followed by the target, packet and item names. The Value Type is one of RAW, CONVERTED, FORMATTED, or WITH_UNITS. The last parameter is optional if you want to use the reduced data types. Reduced Type is one of SAMPLE, MIN, MAX, AVG, or STDDEV. Adding packets to stream is done as follows: var packets = [ ["RAW__TLM__INST__ADCS", "0"], ["DECOM__TLM__INST__HEALTH_STATUS__FORMATTED", "1"], ]; OpenC3Auth.updateToken(OpenC3Auth.defaultMinValidity).then(() => { this.subscription.perform("add", { scope: window.openc3Scope, token: localStorage.openc3Token, packets: packets, start_time: this.startDateTime, end_time: this.endDateTime, }); }); The values in the packet name are separated by double underscores, e.g. <MODE>__<CMD or TLM>__<TARGET NAME>__<PACKET NAME>__<VALUE TYPE>. Mode is either RAW or DECOM. The next parameter is CMD or TLM followed by the target and packet names. The Value Type is one of RAW, CONVERTED, FORMATTED, or WITH_UNITS. For Raw mode, VALUE TYPE should be set to RAW or omitted (e.g. TLM__INST__ADCS__RAW or TLM__INST__ADCS). start_time and end_time are standard COSMOS 64-bit integer timestamps in nanoseconds since the Unix Epoch (midnight January 1st, 1970). If start_time is null, that indicates to start streaming from the current time in realtime, indefinitely until items are removed, or the subscription is unsubscribed. end_time is ignored if start_time is null. If start_time is given and end_time is null, that indicates to playback from the given starttime and then continue indefinitely in realtime. If both start_time and end_time are given, then that indicates a temporary playback of historical data. Data returned by the streaming API is handled by the received callback in Javascript. Data is returned as a JSON Array, with a JSON object in the array for each packet returned. Results are batched, and the current implementation will return up to 100 packets in each batch (the array will have 100 entries). 100 packets per batch is not guaranteed, and batches may take on varying sizes based on the size of the data returned, or other factors. An empty array indicates that all data has been sent for a purely historical query and can be used as an end of data indicator. For decommutated items, each packet is represented as a JSON object with a 'time' field holding the COSMOS nanosecond timestamp of the packet, and then each of the requested item keys with their corresponding value from the packet. [ { "time": 1234657585858, "TLM__INST__ADCS__Q1__RAW": 50.0, "TLM__INST__ADCS__Q2__RAW": 100.0 }, { "time": 1234657585859, "TLM__INST__ADCS__Q1__RAW": 60.0, "TLM__INST__ADCS__Q2__RAW": 110.0 } ] For raw packets, each packet is represented as a JSON object with a time field holding the COSMOS nanosecond timestamp of the packet, a packet field holding the topic the packet was read from in the form of SCOPE__TELEMETRY__TARGETNAME__PACKETNAME, and a buffer field holding a BASE64 encoded copy of the packet data.

Let's do it! Install and Platform This guide assumes we're on Windows and COSMOS is installed in C:\\COSMOS. Adjust scripts and paths as necessary to match your platform and COSMOS installation directory. Before creating your own configuration you should uninstall the COSMOS Demo so you're working with a clean COSMOS system. Click the Admin button and the PLUGINS tab. Then click the Trash can icon next to openc3-cosmos-demo to delete it. When you go back to the Command and Telemetry Server you should have a blank table with no interfaces. If you followed the Installation Guide you should already be inside a cloned openc3-project. Inside this project it's recommended to edit the README.md (Markdown) to describe your program / project. Now we need to create a plugin. Plugins are how we add targets and microservices to COSMOS. Our plugin will contain a single target which contains all the information defining the packets (command and telemetry) that are needed to communicate with the target. Use the COSMOS plugin generator to create the correct structure: C:\\openc3-project> openc3.bat cli generate plugin BOB This should create a new directory called "openc3-cosmos-bob" with a bunch of files in it. The full description of all the files is explained by the Plugin Structure page. Run as the Root user The cli runs as the default COSMOS container user which is the recommended practice. If you're having issues running as that user you can run as the root user (effectively docker run --user=root ) by running cliroot instead of cli in any of the examples. Starting with COSMOS v5.5.0, the plugin generator creates just the plugin framework (previously it would also create a target). From within the newly created plugin directory, we generate a target. C:\\openc3-project> cd openc3-cosmos-bob openc3-cosmos-bob> openc3.bat cli generate target BOB Generators There are a number of generators available. Run openc3.bat cli generate to see all the avilable options. The target generator creates a single target named BOB. Best practice is to create a single target per plugin to make it easier to share targets and upgrade them individually. Lets see what the target generator created for us. Open the openc3-cosmos-bob/targets/BOB/cmd_tlm/cmd.txt: COMMAND BOB EXAMPLE BIG_ENDIAN "Packet description" # Keyword Name BitSize Type Min Max Default Description APPEND_ID_PARAMETER ID 16 INT 1 1 1 "Identifier" APPEND_PARAMETER VALUE 32 FLOAT 0 10.5 2.5 "Value" APPEND_PARAMETER BOOL 8 UINT MIN MAX 0 "Boolean" STATE FALSE 0 STATE TRUE 1 APPEND_PARAMETER LABEL 0 STRING "OpenC3" "The label to apply" What does this all mean? We created a COMMAND for target BOB named EXAMPLE.The command is made up of BIG_ENDIAN parameters and is described by "Packet description". Here we are using the append flavor of defining parameters which stacks them back to back as it builds up the packet and you don't have to worry about defining the bit offset into the packet.First we APPEND_ID_PARAMETER a parameter that is used to identify the packet called ID that is an 16-bit signed integer (INT) with a minimum value of 1, a maximum value of 1, and a default value of 1, that is described as the "Identifier".Next we APPEND_PARAMETER a parameter called VALUE that is a 32-bit float (FLOAT) that has a minimum value of 0, a maximum value of 10.5, and a default value of 2.5.Then we APPEND_PARAMETER a third parameter called BOOL which is a 8-bit unsigned integer (UINT) with a minimum value of MIN (meaning the smallest value a UINT supports, e.g 0), a maximum value of MAX (largest value a UINT supports, e.g. 255), and a default value of 0. BOOL has two states which are just a fancy way of giving meaning to the integer values 0 and 1. The STATE FALSE has a value of 0 and the STATE TRUE has a value of 1.Finally we APPEND_PARAMETER called LABEL which is a 0-bit (meaning it takes up all the remaining space in the packet) string (STRING) with a default value of "OpenC3". Strings don't have minimum or maximum values as that doesn't make sense for STRING types. Check out the full Command documention for more. Now open the openc3-cosmos-bob/targets/BOB/cmd_tlm/tlm.txt: TELEMETRY BOB STATUS BIG_ENDIAN "Telemetry description" # Keyword Name BitSize Type ID Description APPEND_ID_ITEM ID 16 INT 1 "Identifier" APPEND_ITEM VALUE 32 FLOAT "Value" APPEND_ITEM BOOL 8 UINT "Boolean" STATE FALSE 0 STATE TRUE 1 APPEND_ITEM LABEL 0 STRING "The label to apply" This time we created a TELEMETRY packet for target BOB called STATUS that contains BIG_ENDIAN items and is described as "Telemetry description".We start by defininig an ID_ITEM called ID that is a 16-bit signed integer (INT) with an id value of 1 and described as "Identifier". Id items are used to take unidentified blobs of bytes and determine which packet they are. In this case if a blob comes in with a value of 1, at bit offset 0 (since we APPEND this item first), interpreted as a 16-bit integer, then this packet will be "identified" as STATUS. Note the first packet defined without any ID_ITEMS is a "catch-all" packet that matches all incoming data (even if the data lengths don't match).Next we define three items similar to the command definition above. Check out the full Telemetry documention for more. COSMOS has defined an example command and telemetry packet for our target. Most targets will obviously have more than one command and telemetry packet. To add more simply create additional COMMAND and TELEMETRY lines in your text files. Actual packets should match the structure of your command and telemetry. Be sure to add at least one unique ID_PARAMETER and ID_ITEM so your packets can be distinguished from each other. Now we need to tell COSMOS how to connect to our BOB target. Open the openc3-cosmos-bob/plugin.txt file: # Set VARIABLEs here to allow variation in your plugin # See [Plugins](../configuration/plugins.md) for more information VARIABLE bob_target_name BOB # Modify this according to your actual target connection # See [Interfaces](../configuration/interfaces.md) for more information TARGET BOB <%= bob_target_name %> INTERFACE <%= bob_target_name %>_INT tcpip_client_interface.rb host.docker.internal 8080 8081 10.0 nil BURST MAP_TARGET <%= bob_target_name %> This configures the plugin with a VARIABLE called bob_target_name with a default of "BOB". When you install this plugin you will have the option to change the name of this target to something other than "BOB". This is useful to avoid name conflicts and allows you to have multiple copies of the BOB target in your COSMOS system.The TARGET line declares the new BOB target using the name from the variable. The <%= %> syntax is called ERB (embedded Ruby) and allows us to put variables into our text files, in this case referencing our bob_target_name.The last line declares a new INTERFACE called (by default) BOB_INT that will connect as a TCP/IP client using the code in tcpip_client_interface.rb to address host.docker.internal (This adds an /etc/hosts entry to the correct IP address for the host's gateway) using port 8080 for writing and 8081 for reading. It also has a write timeout of 10 seconds and reads will never timeout (nil). The TCP/IP stream will be interpreted using the COSMOS BURST protocol which means it will read as much data as it can from the interface. For all the details on how to configure COSMOS interfaces please see the Interface Guide. The MAP_TARGET line tells COSMOS that it will receive telemetry from and send commands to the BOB target using the BOB_INT interface.

Thus the primary effort in porting from COSMOS 4 to COSMOS 5 is converting targets to plugins. We recommend creating plugins for each independent target (with its own interface) but targets which share an interface will need to be part of the same plugin. The reason for independent plugins is it allows the plugin to be versioned separately and more easily shared outside your specific project. If you have very project specific targets (e.g. custom hardware) those can potentially be combined for ease of deployment. COSMOS 5 includes a migration tool for converting an existing COSMOS 4 configuration into a COSMOS 5 plugin. This example assumes an existing COSMOS 4 configuration at C:\\COSMOS and a new COSMOS 5 installation at C:\\cosmos-project. Linux users can adjust paths and change from .bat to .sh to follow along. Change to the existing COSMOS 4 configuration directory. You should see the config, lib, procedures, outputs directory. You can then run the migration tool by specifying the absolute path to the COSMOS 5 installation. C:\\COSMOS> C:\\cosmos-project\\openc3.bat cli migrate -a demo This creates a new COSMOS 5 plugin called openc3-cosmos-demo with a target named DEMO containing the existing lib and procedures files as well as all the existing targets. C:\\COSMOS> C:\\cosmos-project\\openc3.bat cli migrate demo-part INST This would create a new COSMOS 5 plugin called openc3-cosmos-demo-part with a target named DEMO_PART containing the existing lib and procedures files as well as the INST target (but no others). Open the new COSMOS 5 plugin and ensure the plugin.txt file is correctly configured. The migration tool doesn't create VARIABLEs or MICROSERVICEs or handle target substitution so those features will have to added manually.

If you have Docker available, that is a simpler method. Podman is an alternative container technology to Docker that is actively promoted by RedHat. The key benefit is that Podman can run without a root-level daemon service, making it significantly more secure by design, over standard Docker. However, it is a little more complicated to use. These directions will get you up and running with Podman. The following directions have been tested against RHEL 8.8, and RHEL 9.2, but should be similar on other operating systems. Rootless Podman Does Not Work (Directly) with NFS Home Directories NFS does not work for holding container storage due to issues with user ids and group ids. There are workarounds available but they all involve moving container storage to another location: either a different partition on the host local disk, or into a special mounted disk image. See: [https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/rootless-podman-nfs]https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/rootless-podman-nfs). Note that there is also a newish Podman setting that allows you to more easily change where the storage location is in /etc/containers/storage.conf called rootless_storage_path. See https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/nfs-rootless-podman Redhat 8.8 and 9.2 Instructions Install Prerequisite Packages Note: This downloads and installs docker-compose from the latest 2.x release on Github.

The user can then decide whether to stop the script, or ignore the failure and continue. The user can also retry the failed lines, or other nearby lines before proceeding. Script Runner now also provides a structured methodology for designing system level scripting that mirrors the very successful pattern used in software unit tests (previously implemented in the Test Runner tool). System level tests/procedures are built up of cases that are organized into groups. For example, you might have one group that verified all of the requirements associated with a particular mechanism. Ideally you would break this down into individual cases for different scenarios. One perhaps for opening a shutter, another for closing it, etc. Cases are ideally small and independent tasks.

When the version is seen in the plugin's .gem file name, it is easier to visualize the existing versions and the newly uploaded versions. Plugin parameters Multiple parameters are available for the plugin configuration. See the plugin page.

Connect with a browser tohttp://localhost:2900/tools/admin. Click on the clip icon and navigate to where your plugin is stored and select the openc3-cfs-1.0.0.xxx.gem file. Right of the selection line click on UPLOAD. Determine the IP address the cFS container and COSMOS operator container are running at: docker network ls NETWORK ID NAME DRIVER SCOPE d842f813f1c7 openc3-cosmos-network bridge local docker network inspect openc3-cosmos-network [ { "Name": "openc3-cosmos-network", ...

In the example above you would set it to 172.20.0.9.port_tm is the port number on which cFS is sending the telemetry messages.port_tc indicates the port on cFS is listening for telecommands. Under cfs_target_name you can change the target name of this plugin. This step is optional as long as you are fine with your plugin showing up as CFS. Port subscription The last uploaded plugin on COSMOS will subscribe to TM on port 1235. Other plugins will not receive any TM anymore. Typo errors Presence of typos in one of the plugin files can cause problems when uploading and installing the plugin's .gem file. Make sure your configuration is typo-free. In the example above, the operator image is running at 172.20.0.8. To enable telemetry, go to the browser and connect tohttp://localhost:2900/tools/cmdsender/CFS/TO_LAB_ENABLE. Change the DEST_IP to the IP address of the operator image (172.20.0.8) and send the command. Under http://localhost:2900/tools/cmdtlmserver/tlm-packets, you should see the incoming packets. Note in the CmdTlmServer you will also see CFS_INT UNKNOWN packets because we did not define the full cFS packet set. That exercise is left to the reader.

However, note that APPEND does not work with little endian bitfields. Here are the rules on how COSMOS handles LITTLE_ENDIAN data: COSMOS bit offsets are always defined in BIG_ENDIAN terms. Bit 0 is always the most significant bit of the first byte in a packet, and increasing from there. All 8, 16, 32, and 64-bit byte-aligned LITTLE_ENDIAN data types define their bit_offset as the most significant bit of the first byte in the packet that contains part of the item. (This is exactly the same as BIG_ENDIAN). Note that for all except 8-bit LITTLE_ENDIAN items, this is the LEAST significant byte of the item. LITTLE_ENDIAN bit fields are defined as any LITTLE_ENDIAN INT or UINT item that is not 8, 16, 32, or 64-bit and byte aligned. LITTLE_ENDIAN bit fields must define their bit_offset as the location of the most significant bit of the bitfield in BIG_ENDIAN space as described in rule 1 above. So for example. The following C struct at the beginning of a packet would be defined like so: struct { unsigned short a:4; unsigned short b:8; unsigned short c:4; } ITEM A 4 4 UINT "struct item a" ITEM B 12 8 UINT "struct item b" ITEM C 8 4 UINT "struct item c" This is hard to visualize, but the structure above gets spread out in a byte array like the following after byte swapping: least significant 4 bits of b, 4-bits a, 4-bits c, most significant 4 bits of b. The best advice is to experiment and use the View Raw feature in the Command and Telemetry Service to inspect the bytes of the packet and adjust as necessary.","keywords":"","version":"Next"},{"title":"Local Mode","type":0,"sectionRef":"#","url":"/tools/docs/docs/guides/local-mode","content":"","keywords":"","version":"Next"},{"title":"Using Local Mode​","type":1,"pageTitle":"Local Mode","url":"/tools/docs/docs/guides/local-mode#using-local-mode","content":"In this tutorial we will use the COSMOS Demo as configured by the Installation Guide.

On all platforms the key performance factor is the number and complexity of the targets and their defined packets. Targets can vary from simple targets taking 100 MB of RAM to complex targets taking 400 MB. The base COSMOS containers require about 800 MB of RAM. A good rule of thumb is to average about 300 MB of RAM for targets. As an example data point, the COSMOS Demo has 4 targets, two complex (INST & INST2) and two relatively simple (EXAMPLE & TEMPLATED), and requires 800 MB of RAM (on top of the 800 MB of base container RAM). Base RAM MB Calculator = 800 + (num targets) * 300 In addition, the Redis streams contain the last 10 min of both raw and decommutated data from all targets. Thus you must wait ~15min to truly see what the high water memory mark will be. In the COSMOS Demo the INST & INST2 targets are fairly simple with four 1Hz packet of ~15 items and one 10Hz packet with 20 items. This only causes 50 MiB of redis RAM usage according to docker stats. Installing the COSMOS LoadSim with 10 packets with 1000 items each at 10Hz pushed the redis memory usage to about 350 MiB.

In the Open Source Edition, by default COSMOS spawns off 2 microservices per target. One combines packet logging and decommutation of the data and the other performs data reduction. In COSMOS Enterprise Edition on Kubernetes, each process becomes an independent container that is deployed on the cluster allowing horizontal scaling. The COSMOS command and telemetry API and script running API servers should have a dedicated core while targets can generally share cores. It's hard to provide a general rule of thumb with the wide variety of architectures, clock speeds, and core counts. The best practice is to install COSMOS with the expected load and do some monitoring with htop to visualize the load on the various cores. Any time a single core gets overloaded (100%) this is a concern and system slowdown can occur.

Sizing can be approximated but the best solution is to install representative targets and use docker stats and htop to judge the CPU and memory pressure on the given hardware. COSMOS Enterprise Edition on Kubernetes helps to eliminate the hardware sizing issue by scaling the cluster to meet the needs of the system.

This means that COSMOS adapts to what other systems are doing and evolves over time. It does not publish an API that hardware must adhere to if it wants to communicate with COSMOS. Log Everything All data that flows into and out of COSMOS is logged. This provides history as well as attribution for what happened when and why. Keeping accurate logs is an essential and critical aspect of COSMOS. Open Architecture and Source Nothing about how COSMOS is implemented is meant to be secret or hidden, even in Enterprise Edition. In all editions, the source code for everything in COSMOS is provided and available for users to inspect or modify as needed. Never worry about an unsolvable problem or having to accept some detail that you don't like. This also opens the world to integrate anything they need into COSMOS without restriction or limitation. Be Modular There are infinite number of things for COSMOS to connect to, but it is impossible to ship COSMOS with all the code it would need to talk to everything. For this reason, COSMOS is designed to be modular in all the places that matter. Use Configuration when Possible, and Code When Logic Is Needed Configuration is great for making COSMOS as usable as possible by non-software engineers. It also shows where common patterns exist. However, configuration is horrible when logic or custom math are needed. Empower Developers COSMOS is meant to be easy enough to be used by everyone, not just C2 software experts.","keywords":"","version":"Next"},{"title":"OpenC3, Inc.

","version":"Next","tagName":"h2"},{"title":"Ruby vs Python in COSMOS​","type":1,"pageTitle":"Script Writing Guide","url":"/tools/docs/docs/guides/script-writing#ruby-vs-python-in-cosmos","content":"There are many similarities and a few key differences between Ruby and Python when it comes to writing COSMOS scripts. There is no 80 character limit on line length. Lines can be as long as you like, but be careful to not make them too long as it makes printed reviews of scripts more difficult.Indentation white space: Ruby: Not significant. Ruby uses the end keyword to determine indented code blocks with a standard of 2 spaces.Python: Significant. Python uses indentation to determine code blocks with a standard of 4 spaces. Variables do not have to be declared ahead of time and can be reassigned later, i.e. Ruby and Python are dynamically typed.Variable interpolation: Ruby: Variable values can be placed into strings using the "#{variable}" syntax.Python: Variable values can be placed into f-strings using the f"{variable}" syntax. A variable declared inside of a block or loop will not exist outside of that block unless it was already declared. Both languages provides a script writer a lot of power. But with great power comes great responsibility. Remember when writing your scripts that you or someone else will come along later and need to understand them. Therefore use the following style guidelines: Use consistent spacing for indentation and do NOT use tabsConstants should be all caps with underscores SPEED_OF_LIGHT = 299792458 # meters per s Variable names and method names should be in lowercase with underscores last_name = "Smith"perform_setup_operation() Class names (when used) should be camel case and the files which contain them should match but be lowercase with underscores class DataUploader # in 'data_uploader.rb'class CcsdsUtility: # in 'ccsds_utility.py' Don't add useless comments but instead describe intent The following is an example of good Ruby style: load 'TARGET/lib/upload_utility.rb' # library we do NOT want to show executing load_utility 'TARGET/lib/helper_utility.rb' # library we do want to show executing # Declare constants OUR_TARGETS = ['INST','INST2'] # Clear the collect counter of the passed in target name def clear_collects(target) cmd("#{target} CLEAR") wait_check("#{target} HEALTH_STATUS COLLECTS == 0", 5) end ###################################### # START ###################################### helper = HelperUtility.new helper.setup # Perform collects on all the targets OUR_TARGETS.each do |target| collects = tlm("#{target} HEALTH_STATUS COLLECTS") cmd("#{target} COLLECT with TYPE SPECIAL") wait_check("#{target} HEALTH_STATUS COLLECTS == #{collects + 1}", 5) end clear_collects('INST') clear_collects('INST2') The following is an example of good Python style: from openc3.script import * import TARGET.lib.upload_utility # library we do NOT want to show executing load_utility('TARGET/lib/helper_utility.rb') # library we do want to show executing # Declare constants OUR_TARGETS = ['INST','INST2'] # Clear the collect counter of the passed in target name def clear_collects(target): cmd(f"{target} CLEAR") wait_check(f"{target} HEALTH_STATUS COLLECTS == 0", 5) ###################################### # START ###################################### helper = HelperUtility() helper.setup() # Perform collects on all the targets for target in OUR_TARGETS: collects = tlm(f"{target} HEALTH_STATUS COLLECTS") cmd(f"{target} COLLECT with TYPE SPECIAL") wait_check(f"{target} HEALTH_STATUS COLLECTS == {collects + 1}", 5) clear_collects('INST') clear_collects('INST2') Both examples shows several features of COSMOS scripting in action. Notice the difference between 'load' or 'import' and 'load_utility'. The first is to load additional scripts which will NOT be shown in Script Runner when executing. This is a good place to put code which takes a long time to run such as image analysis or other looping code where you just want the output. 'load_utility' will visually execute the code line by line to show the user what is happening. Next we declare our constants and create an array of strings which we store in OUR_TARGETS. Notice the constant is all uppercase with underscores. Then we declare our local methods of which we have one called clear_collects. Please provide a comment at the beginning of each method describing what it does and the parameters that it takes. The 'helper_utility' is then created. Note the similarity in the class name and the file name we loaded. The collect example shows how you can iterate over the array of strings we previously created and use variables when commanding and checking telemetry. The Ruby pound bracket #{} notation and python f-string f"{} notation puts whatever the variable holds into the string. You can even execute additional code inside the brackets like we do when checking for the collect count to increment. Finally we call our 'clear_collects' method on each target by passing the target name.

Ruby: count = tlm("INST HEALTH_STATUS COLLECTS") cmd("INST COLLECT with TYPE NORMAL, TEMP 10.0") wait_check("INST HEALTH_STATUS COLLECTS >= #{count + 1}", 5) Python: count = tlm("INST HEALTH_STATUS COLLECTS") cmd("INST COLLECT with TYPE NORMAL, TEMP 10.0") wait_check(f"INST HEALTH_STATUS COLLECTS >= {count + 1}", 5) 90% of the COSMOS scripts you write should be the simple patterns shown above except that you may need to check more than one item after each command to make sure the command worked as expected.

In extreme cases, this has led to 100,000+ line scripts that are impossible to maintain and review. There are two common ways repetition presents itself: exact blocks of code to perform a common action such as powering on a subsystem, and blocks of code that only differ in the name of the mnemonic being checked or the values checked against. Both are solved by removing the repetition using methods (or functions). For example, a script that powers on a subsystem and ensures correct telemetry would become: Ruby: def power_on_subsystem # 100 lines of cmd(), wait_check(), etc end Python: def power_on_subsystem(): # 100 lines of cmd(), wait_check(), etc Ideally, the above methods would be stored in another file where it could be used by other scripts.

Script Runner provides both a script execution environment and a script editor. The script editor includes code completion for both COSMOS methods and command/telemetry item names. It is also a great environment to develop and test scripts. Script Runner provides a framework for users that are familiar with a traditional scripting model with longer style procedures, and for users that want to be able to edit their scripts in place. When opening a suite file (named with 'suite') Script Runner provides a more formal, but also more powerful, environment for running scripts. Suite files breaks scripts down into suites, groups, and scripts (individual methods). Suites are the highest-level concept and would typically cover a large procedure such as a thermal vacuum test, or a large operations scenario such as performing on orbit checkout. Groups capture a related set of scripts such as all the scripts regarding a specific mechanism. A Group might be a collection of scripts all related to a subsystem, or a specific series of tests such as an RF checkout. Scripts capture individual activities that can either pass or fail. Script Runner allows for running an entire suite, one or more groups, or one or more scripts easily. It also automatically produces reports containing timing, pass / fail counts, etc. The correct environment for the job is up to individual users, and many programs will use both script formats to complete their goals.

If a script is running a loop over a list of telemetry points, it may be a better choice to “unroll” the loop by making the loop body into a method, and then calling that method directly for each iteration of a loop that would have occurred. Ruby: 10.times do |temperature_number| check_temperature(temperature_number + 1) end Python: for temperature_number in range(1, 11): check_temperature(temperature_number) If the above script was stopped after temperature number 3, there would be no way to restart the loop at temperature number 4.

If you just need a helper method to do something that happens multiple times in a script without copy and pasting, it probably does not need to be in a class.

This means that each line has some extra code added behind the scenes that primarily highlights the current executing line and catches exceptions if things fail such as a wait_check. If your script needs to use code in other files, there are a few ways to bring in that code. Some techniques bring in instrumented code and others bring in uninstrumented code. There are reasons to use both. load_utility (and the deprecated require_utility), bring in instrumented code from other files. When COSMOS runs the code in the other file, Script Runner will dive into the other file and show each line highlighted as it executes. This should be the default way to bring in other files, as it allows continuing if something fails, and provides better visibility to operators. However, sometimes you don't want to display code executing from other files. Externally developed libraries generally do not like to be instrumented, and code that contains large loops or that just takes a long time to execute when highlighting lines, will be much faster if included in a method that does not instrument lines. Ruby provides two ways to bring in uninstrumented code. The first is the “load” keyword. Load will bring in the code from another file and will bring in any changes to the file if it is updated on the next call to load. “require” is like load but is optimized to only bring in the code from another file once. Therefore, if you use require and then change the file it requires, you must restart Script Runner to re-require the file and bring in the changes. In general, load is recommended over require for COSMOS scripting. One gotcha with load is that it requires the full filename including extension, while the require keyword does not. In Python, libraries are included using the import syntax. Any code imported using import is not instrumented. Only the code imported using load_utility is instrumented. Finally, COSMOS scripting has a special syntax for disabling instrumentation in the middle of an instrumented script, with the disable_instrumentation method. This allows you to disable instrumentation for large loops and other activities that are too slow when running instrumented. Ruby: temp = 0 disable_instrumentation do # Make sure nothing in here will raise exceptions! 5000000.times do temp += 1 end end puts temp Python: temp = 0 with disable_instrumentation(): # Make sure nothing in here will raise exceptions! for x in range(0,5000000): temp += 1 print(temp) When Running Uninstrumented Code Make sure that the code will not raise any exceptions or have any check failures.

The main thread will block on the web socket to listen to request changes to the timeline, these could be adding, removing, or updating activities. The main thread will make the changes to the in memory schedule if these changes are within the hour of the current time. When the web socket gets an update it has an action lookup table. These actions are "created", "updated", "deleted", ect... Some actions require updating the schedule from the database to ensure the schedule and the database are always in sync. The schedule thread checks every second to make sure if a task can be run. If the start time is equal or less then the last 15 seconds it will then check the previously queued jobs list in the schedule. If the activity has not been queued and is not fulfilled the activity will be queued, this adds an event to the activity but is not saved to the database. The workers block on the queue until an activity is placed on the queue. Once a job is pulled from the queue they check the type and run the activity. The thread will mark the activity fulfillment true and update the database record with the complete.

A common mistake is to check a variable like so (Ruby variable interpolation): check_expression("#{answer} == 'yes'") # where answer contains 'yes' This evaluates to yes == 'yes' which is not valid syntax because the variable yes is not defined (usually). The correct way to write this expression is as follows: check_expression("'#{answer}' == 'yes'") # where answer contains 'yes' Now this evaluates to 'yes' == 'yes' which is true so the check passes. Ruby / Python Syntax: check_expression("<Expression>") Parameter\tDescriptionExpression\tAn expression to evaluate.
