IOC Builder for EPICS and Kubernetes:
- In an EPICS support module describe what entities an IOC using it can create,
what arguments they take, and what database and st.cmd snippets it should
generate in a
builder.yaml
file - Build support modules together in a container image and use
ibek
in the image to create a JSON schema of what an IOC using that image can contain - Write an
ioc.yaml
file against that schema listing instances of the entities with arguments - Use
ibek
to generate a startup script and database that runs up the IOC contained in the image with them
PyPI | pip install ibek |

This project is approaching completion. The following items are still to do:
from ibek import __version__
print(f"Hello ibek {__version__}")
- DONE: Add ability to define embedded objects e.g. AsynIp and AsynSerial would both be defined by embedding AsynPort (so similar to how original builder.py works)
$ python -m ibek --version
