Usage Examples
==============
Full-featured interactive shell
-------------------------------
The `client_interactive_example.py` extends and uses the `Cmd <https://docs.python.org/2/library/cmd.html>`_ built in python class to create a Full-featured shell using which one can interact with TRex server and get instant results.
The help menu of this application is:
.. code-block:: json
usage: client_interactive_example [options]
Run TRex client API demos and scenarios.
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-v, --version show program's version number and exit
-t HOST, --trex-host HOST
Specify the hostname or ip to connect with TRex
server.
-p PORT, --trex-port PORT
Select port on which the TRex server listens. Default
port is 8090.
-m SIZE, --maxhist SIZE
Specify maximum history size saved at client side.
Default size is 100.
--verbose Switch ON verbose option at TRex client. Default is:
OFF.

End-to-End cycle
----------------
This example (``pkt_generation_for_trex.py``) demonstrates a full cycle of using the API.
.. note:: this module uses the `Scapy <http://www.secdev.org/projects/scapy/doc/usage.html>`_ in order to generate packets to be used as a basis of the traffic injection. It is recommended to *install* this module to best experience the example.
The demo takes the user a full circle:
1. Generating packets (using Scapy)
2. exporting the generated packets into .pcap file named `dns_traffic.pcap`.
3. Use the :class:`trex_yaml_gen.CTRexYaml` generator to include that pcap file in the yaml object.
4. Export the YAML object onto a YAML file named `dns_traffic.yaml`
5. Push the generated files to TRex server.
6. Run TRex based on the generated (and pushed) files.
