==== Simulating using ndnSIM ====


While it is possible to write simulations directly inside NS-3 (in scratch/ folder) or ndnSIM (in examples/), the recommended way is to write your simulation scenarios, as well as any custom extensions, separately from the NS-3 or ndnSIM core.

For example, you can use the following template to write your extensions, simulation scenarios, and metric processing scripts: http://github.com/cawka/ndnSIM-scenario-template:

    mkdir ndnSIM
    cd ndnSIM
    git clone git://github.com/cawka/ns-3-dev-ndnSIM.git ns-3
    git clone git://github.com/cawka/pybindgen.git pybindgen
    git clone git://github.com/NDN-Routing/ndnSIM.git ns-3/src/ndnSIM

    # Build and install NS-3 and ndnSIM
    cd ns-3
    ./waf configure -d optimized --enable-examples
    ./waf

    sudo ./waf install
    cd ..

Create Scenario:
    git clone git://github.com/cawka/ndnSIM-scenario-template.git scenario
    cd scenario 
    export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

    ./waf configure
    ./waf --run <scenario>

=== Using scratch folder **Not tried** ===

    cd ns-3/scratch
    git clone git://github.com/cawka/ndnSIM-scenario-template.git scenario
    ./waf configure
    ./waf --run <scenario>
    
==== Troubleshooting ====
  * Directory structure: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/ns-3-users/ppP8A9vVloo/MtxYbb-dCEkJ
  * ns3-ndnSim not found: http://www.lists.cs.ucla.edu/pipermail/ndnsim/2013-March/000172.html

=== Lib, include not found ===

Run with prefix and ENV exports.
    ./waf configure --prefix=/home/ndnSIM

Log files:
  * in separated scenario folder: build/config.log

Configure ns3 with 
    ./waf configure -d optimized
    
Configure and compile scenario with ENV:
    PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig ./waf configure
    
or

    PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig ./waf configure --debug

Run scenario with ENV:
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib ./waf --run <scenario_name>

When running using ./waf, it is possible to run scenario with visualizer:

    ./waf --run <scenario_name> --vis
   
====== Sep 2014 29-30: build simple test simulation ======
All NDN Examples are here and not coupled in ns-3 / ndnSim packages: https://github.com/cawka/ndnSIM-examples.git     

Working also with --vis

**To see NS_LOG=DumbRequester:ndn.Producer ./waf --run=ndn-simple-with-content-freshness ** the simulation must be compiled with --debug

    ./waf configure --debug
