SURFnet 8 ultimate Provider Agent.

An ultimate Provider Agent is an NSI Network Service Agent that services NSI requests by coordinating with a local Network Resource Manager (NRM). In case of SURFnet 8, the NRM would be the Orchestrator.

As we have not published supa to a Python package repository we need to check out the source code repository:

$ git clone https://github.com/workfloworchestrator/SuPA.git

SuPA is developed using Python 3.8. Hence we need a Python 3.8 virtual environment:

$ cd supa
$ python3.8 -m venv venv
$ source venv/bin/activate

Now we can install SuPA for development purposes:

$ pip install -U pip wheel
$ pip install -e '.[dev,doc]'

This README is intentionally kept as brief as possible. Build the documentation and read that for much more info regarding installation, configuration and development:

$ cd docs
$ make html
$ open _build/html/index.html

With an activated virtual environment running SuPA should be as easy as:

$ supa serve

However, that will hardly do exactly what you want. Best to read the documentation on how to configure SuPA first.
