prop: Setting Experiment Properties

Parameters of application or values of resources used in the experiment can be bound to experiment properties defined with defProperty. When changing an experiment property via the 'prop' command, the nodehandler will follow all the bindings and will automatically issue all the necessary commands to propagate the new value to all the bound applications and resources.

Syntax: prop.propName = newValue

• setSelector: The set of nodes to use
• command: Command to issue on the set.
• resource_path: Path to resource.
• value: Value to assign to resource.

The supported syntax for the setSelector can be found in defNodes where it is simply called selector.

The list of commands currently defined can be found missing. A description of the resource paths can be found mssing.

Usage

nodes('sender1').startApplications
nodes(['s1', 'r1']).net.wo.essid = "orbit"
nodes('sender').net.wo { |w|
  w.essid = "orbit"
  w.ip = "%192.168.%x.%y"
}
