ipdk connect not working
I am trying to use the networking build with containerized version. I am following the steps described in
My host machine is running Ubuntu 22.04.
After the vagrant is up when I try to execute the following command
ipdk connect
It gives the following output.
vagrant@ubuntu2004:~$ ipdk connect -bash: ipdk: command not found vagrant@ubuntu2004:~$
Can someone please guide me a bit here.
When you do vagrant up and vagrant ssh to your machine
Go to cd /git/ipdk since this is synced folder as you can see in Vagrantfile
Then run ./build/ipdk -install <your OS of choice>
you should see the message
As last step execute:
export PATH=/git/ipdk/build:$PATH
to add the IPDK CLI to your path in the running environment!
When you do export PATH=/git/ipdk/build:$PATH you'll resolve ipdk: command not found problem
To connect to ipdk, first you need to launch ipdk container, so:
ipdk start -d (-d for daemon)
And finally ipdk connect
@jafingerhut i've seen in your README that you've mentioned it as well (Follow instructions in file build/networking/README_DOCKER.md, under heading "Login to the VM":)
@mestery @dandaly what about extending provision.sh with export PATH=/git/ipdk/build:$PATH >> /etc/profile or some .bashrc? so the ipdk command will be available out of the box on vagrant's VM?
Anything that can be added to the README steps for installation that makes them work for more people, more completely, without any missing steps that they have to figure out on their own, or search through Github issues to find out, is a good thing, in my opinion. Why make people who want to use your software solve puzzles, when you can give them working complete instructions?
