SRComp

Reliable software for running robotics competitions, primarily used by Student Robotics.

The SRComp wiki provides an overview of the suite as a whole.

This repository provides a python API to accessing information about the state of the competition. That compstate is stored as a collection of YAML files in a git repository. This allows the state of the competition to be managed in isolation from the software while still providing consistent representations of that state.

Usage

Python clients should install the library using:

pip install sr.comp

Only the SRComp is class directly exposed, and it should be constructed around the path to a local working copy of a compstate repo.

from srcomp import SRComp
comp = SRComp('/path/to/compstate')

Web clients should look at using the HTTP API provided by srcomp-http rather than implementing their own intermediary.

There is also a command line interface which provides utilities for managing a compstate repo: srcomp-cli.

See the dummy-comp for an example of the structure and values expected in a compstate repo.

Development
