loramoteemulator 1.1.0
This is a useful tool to test LoRa server.
To emulate end devices (a.k.a. Motes in LoRaWAN™ protocol)
Support LoRaWAN™ 1.0.2 & 1.1 protocol
Using Gateways from Semtech™
System Requirements
Ubuntu
Python(>=3.6, mandatory)
Installtion
PYPI
Use pip to install lora-mote-emulator:
pip install lora-mote-emulator
MANUALLY
Use pip to install pipenv:
pip install pipenv
Clone this repo into a directory:
git clone https://github.com/houluy/lora-mote-emulator.git
Use pipenv to create a virtual Python environment and install all the dependencies:
pipenv install
Build the project:
python -m build
Here, if there is not Python 3.6 in your system, a warning will occur, and no package will be installed. It is perfect to install Python 3.6 from source. Otherwise, remove the Pipfile.lock and redo the above command.
Enter the virtual environment by pipenv shell
Run mote -h to see the help message
Usage
usage: mote [-h] [-v version] [-c CONFIG] [--model MODEL]
{join,app,pull,mac,rejoin,info,abp,create} ...
Tool to emulate LoRa mote (a.k.a end-device) and Gateway, supported command
list: ['join', 'app', 'pull', 'mac', 'rejoin', 'info', 'abp', 'create']
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-v version, --version version
Choose LoRaWAN version, 1.0.2 or 1.1(default)
-c CONFIG, --config CONFIG
Specify the directory of config files, default
'./config'
--model MODEL Specify the directory to save the model file, default
'./models'
Supported commands:
{join,app,pull,mac,rejoin,info,abp,create}
join Send join request.
app Send application data.
pull Send PULL_DATA.
mac Send MACCommand.
rejoin Send rejoin request.
info Show information of current mote.
abp Initialize mote in ABP mode.
create Handle configurations.
Tutorial
First, we need to create configuration files by command mote create [-c ./config]. Mote will generate required config template JSON files in the ./config directory (default). In the directory, several JSON config files are included.
config.json: Basic configurations.
gateway.json: Gateway EUI.
device.json: Device parameters for OTAA mode.
abp.json: Device parameters for ABP mode.
OTAA
Modify device infomation in device.json copied. An example:
{
"Device": {
"JoinEUI": "0000000000000000",
"DevEUI": "0000000000000000"
},
"RootKeys": {
"AppKey": "00000000000000000000000000000000",
"NwkKey": "00000000000000000000000000000000"
}
}
NOTE: If you want to emulate LoRaWAN 1.0 device, first set JoinEUI equal to AppEUI and set NwkKey equal to AppKey.
ABP
Modify device activation information in abp.json. An example:
{
"deveui": "0000000000000000",
"joineui": "0000000000000000",
"devaddr": "00000000",
"appkey": "00000000000000000000000000000000",
"nwkkey": "00000000000000000000000000000000",
"nwksenckey": "00000000000000000000000000000000",
"snwksintkey": "00000000000000000000000000000000",
"fnwksintkey": "00000000000000000000000000000000",
"appskey": "00000000000000000000000000000000",
"fcntup": 0,
"version": "1.1"
}
Currently, five kinds of message is supported: pull data, join request, rejoin request, confirmed (or unconfirmed) data up (with or without FOpts) and MAC Commands in FRMPayload field:
NOTE: Always remember to mote pull to keep the gateway alive in server.
mote info
mote pull
mote abp
mote join [-n]
mote rejoin 'rejointyp' (0, 1, 2)
mote app 'message' (uplink message, will be encoded by UTF-8) [-auf]
mote mac 'command' (MAC Commands in FRMPayload field)
Here is the example step of interaction with ChirpStack:
mote pull
mote join -n
mote app helloworld -f 0302
mote main.py mac 0302
