tango-rs

This library is a client for Tango control system servers. It uses the preexisting C bindings (included) and wraps the API functions provided by it in a Rustic interface.

Device proxy API calls:

• command_inout
• command_query
• command_list_query
• get_attribute_list
• get_attribute_config
• attribute_list_query
• read/write_attribute
• read/write_attributes
• get/put/delete_device_property
• get/set_timeout
• get/set_source
• lock/unlock/is_locked

Database API calls:

• get_device_exported/_for_class
• get_object_list
• get_object_property_list
• get/put/delete_property

Building

You need an installed Tango library with headers. Set the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable to the directory that contains tango.pc if it is not found by default.

Testing

For testing/benchmarking, you need a Tango database running on localhost:10000, and the default instance of the standard testing server (TangoTest/test).

Then, you can run cargo test to test all wrapped APIs, and cargo bench to measure the duration of command_inout roundtrips.
