xwot.py is a collection of Python tools for developing xWoT web applications based on the xWoT meta-model introduced by Andreas Ruppen and Jacques Pasquier.

For more details visit the website of the Software Engineering Research Group / University of Fribourg.

Content:

• xwot.compiler - compiler for generating a skeleton xWoT web application based on the xWoT meta-model
  • xwot.compiler.backend - different backends
  • xwot.compiler.frontend - visitor, parser, description builder and processing tools
• xwot.device - example xwot devices (weather station, water dispenser, light bulb, door, window)
• xwot.i2c.adapter - i2c adapters for xwot devices
• xwot.model - xwot models
• xwot.cmd - set of xwot commands like xwotc (compiler), xwotd (description builder)

• build-essential
• libffi-dev
• python-dev
• python-pip
• python-smbus
• i2c-tools
• libi2c-dev

sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev build-essential libffi-dev python-smbus i2c-tools libi2c-dev

cd xwot.py
sudo python setup.py install

sudo pip install xwot-py

The xwot compiler uses popular micro web frameworks to generate a skeleton application for different programming platforms such as:

• ruby
• python
• nodejs

Currently there are four basic backends available:

• sinatra / ruby
• flask / python
• klein / python
• express.js / node.js

usage: xwotc [-h] [-p [{flask,sinatra,express,klein}]] [-o [OUTPUT_DIR]] f

xwot compiler

positional arguments:
  f                     xwot file

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -p [{flask,sinatra,express}]
                        platform to use
  -o [OUTPUT_DIR]       name of the output directory

Options:

• p: platform - can be express, sinatra or flask
• f: enhanced xwot file - used to generate the code

xwotc  flask smart-room-example_enhanced.xwot

The xwot description builder takes as argument a xwot xml file and generates a lightweight device description file in the jsonld format.

usage: xwotd [-h] [-o [OUTPUT_FILEPATH]] xwot file

xwot description builder

positional arguments:
  xwot file             a xwot file

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -o [OUTPUT_FILEPATH]  path of the output file

xwotd flask smart-room-example_enhanced.xwot description.jsonld
