TestCsc¶

class lsst.ts.salobj.TestCsc(index: int, config_dir: Optional[Union[str, pathlib.Path]] = None, initial_state: lsst.ts.salobj.sal_enums.State = State.STANDBY, settings_to_apply: str = '', simulation_mode: int = 0, schema_path: Optional[Union[str, pathlib.Path]] = None)¶

Bases: lsst.ts.salobj.configurable_csc.ConfigurableCsc

A simple CSC intended for unit testing.

Supported commands:

setScalars and setArrays: output the provided data using the corresponding event and telemetry topics. Note that this violates the convention that telemetry is output at regular intervals, but it makes unit tests much easier to write.
wait: wait for the specified amount of time, and, if requested, raise an exception. One use for this is to test command timeout by specifying a long wait and waiting a shorter time for the command to finish. Another use is to test multiple simultaneous commands, since wait supports this.
The standard state transition commands do the usual thing and output the summaryState event. The exitControl command shuts the CSC down.

Parameters

indexint

Index of Test component; each unit test method should use a different index.

config_dirstr, optional

Path to configuration files.

initial_statesalobj.State, optional

The initial state of the CSC. Typically one of:

salobj.State.ENABLED if you want the CSC immediately usable.
salobj.State.STANDBY if you want full emulation of a CSC.

settings_to_applystr, optional

Settings to apply if initial_state is State.DISABLED or State.ENABLED.

simulation_modeint, optional

Simulation mode. The only allowed value is 0.

schema_pathstr, pathlib.Path or None, optional

Path to a schema file used to validate configuration files. This is only for testing the deprecated schema_path ConfigurableCsc constructor argument; real CSCs should _not_ provide this argument. If not None then ConfigurableCsc is called with this, instead of the config_schema argument.

Raises

ValueError: If config_dir is not a directory or initial_state is invalid.
salobj.ExpectedError: If simulation_mode is invalid. Note: you will only see this error if you await start_task.

Notes

Unlike a normal CSC this one does not output telemetry at regular intervals. Instead, in order to simplify unit tests, it outputs the arrays and scalars telemetry topics in reponse to the setArrays or setScalars command (just like the arrays and scalars events). That makes it more predictable when this data will appear. Note that the heartbeat event is output at regular intervals, as for any CSC.

Also, unlike most normal configurable CSCs, this one does not need to be configured in order to be used (though self.config will be None). Thus it is safe to start this CSC in the salobj.State.ENABLED state.

Methods Documentation

classmethod add_arguments(parser: argparse.ArgumentParser) → None¶

Add arguments to the parser created by make_from_cmd_line.

Parameters

parserargparse.ArgumentParser: The argument parser.

Notes

If you override this method then you should almost certainly override add_kwargs_from_args as well.

classmethod add_kwargs_from_args(args: argparse.Namespace, kwargs: Dict[str, Any]) → None¶

Add constructor keyword arguments based on parsed arguments.

Parameters

argsargparse.Namespace: Parsed command.
kwargsdict: Keyword argument dict for the constructor. Update this based on args. The index argument will already be present if relevant.

Notes

If you override this method then you should almost certainly override add_arguments as well.

async classmethod amain(index: Optional[Union[int, enum.IntEnum, bool]], **kwargs: Any) → None¶

Make a CSC from command-line arguments and run it.

Parameters

indexint, enum.IntEnum, True, or None

If the CSC is indexed, do one of the following:

Specify True to make index a required command-line argument that accepts any nonzero index.
Specify an enum.IntEnum class to make index a required command-line argument that only accepts the enum values.
Specify a non-zero integer to use that index. This is rare; if the CSC is indexed then the user should usually be allowed to specify the index.

If the CSC is not indexed, specify None or 0.

**kwargsdict, optional

Additional keyword arguments for your CSC’s constructor.

as_dict(data: Any, fields: Sequence[str]) → Dict[str, Any]¶

Return the specified fields from a data struct as a dict.

Parameters

dataany: The data to copy.
fieldslist [str]: The names of the fields of data to copy.

assert_arrays_equal(arrays1: Any, arrays2: Any) → None¶

Assert that two arrays data structs are equal.

The types need not match; each struct can be command, event or telemetry data.

assert_enabled(action: str = '') → None¶

Assert that an action that requires ENABLED state can be run.

Parameters

actionstr, optional: Action attempted. Not needed if this is called at the beginning of a do_... method, since the user will know what command was called.

assert_scalars_equal(scalars1: Any, scalars2: Any) → None¶

Assert that two scalars data structs are equal.

The types need not match; each struct can be command, event or telemetry data.

async begin_disable(data: lsst.ts.salobj.type_hints.BaseDdsDataType) → None¶

Begin do_disable; called before state changes.

Parameters

dataDataType: Command data

async begin_enable(data: lsst.ts.salobj.type_hints.BaseDdsDataType) → None¶

Begin do_enable; called before state changes.

Parameters

dataDataType: Command data

Notes

The settingsToApply field must be one of:

The name of a config label or config file
The name and version of a config file, formatted as <file_name>:<version>, where the version is a git reference, such as a git tag or commit hash. This form does not support labels.

async close(exception: Optional[Exception] = None, cancel_start: bool = True) → None¶

Shut down, clean up resources and set done_task done.

May be called multiple times. The first call closes the Controller; subsequent calls wait until the Controller is closed.

Subclasses should override close_tasks instead of close, unless you have a good reason to do otherwise.

Parameters

exceptionException, optional: The exception that caused stopping, if any, in which case the self.done_task exception is set to this value. Specify None for a normal exit, in which case the self.done_task result is set to None.
cancel_startbool, optional: Cancel the start task? Leave this true unless calling this from the start task.

Notes

Removes the SAL log handler, calls close_tasks to stop all background tasks, pauses briefly to allow final SAL messages to be sent, then closes the dds domain.

async close_tasks() → None¶: Shut down pending tasks. Called by close.

async configure(config: types.SimpleNamespace) → None¶

Configure the CSC.

Parameters

configobject: The configuration as described by the schema at schema_path, as a struct-like object.

Notes

The versions in BaseCsc and ConfigurableCsc do nothing, so if you subclass one of those you do not need to call await super().handle_summary_state().

async implement_simulation_mode(simulation_mode: int) → None¶

Implement going into or out of simulation mode.

Deprecated. See simulation mode for details.

Parameters

simulation_modeint: Requested simulation mode; 0 for normal operation.

Raises

ExpectedError: If simulation_mode is not a supported value.

Construct a CSC from command line arguments.

Parameters

indexint, enum.IntEnum, True, or None

If the CSC is indexed, do one of the following:

Specify True to make index a required command-line argument that accepts any nonzero index.
Specify an enum.IntEnum class to make index a required command-line argument that only accepts the enum values.
Specify a non-zero integer to use that index. This is rare; if the CSC is indexed then the user should usually be allowed to specify the index.

If the CSC is not indexed, specify None or 0.

**kwargsdict, optional

recommendedSettingsLabels is a comma-separated list of labels in self.config_label_dict, truncated by omitting labels if necessary.
recommendedSettingsVersion is derived from git information for self.config_dir, if it is a git repository, else “”.

report_summary_state() → None¶

Report a new value for summary_state, including current state.

Subclasses may wish to override for code that depends on the current state (rather than the state transition command that got it into that state).

async set_simulation_mode(simulation_mode: int) → None¶

Set the simulation mode.

Await implement_simulation_mode, update the simulation mode property and report the new value.

Parameters

simulation_modeint: Requested simulation mode; 0 for normal operation.
