PyRandomTransmitter Satellite#

Name	PyRandomTransmitter
Description	A Python satellite that transmits random data
Category	Developer Tools
Language	Python

Parameters#

Parameter	Type	Description	Default Value
`block_size`	Unsigned integer	Size of a data block in bytes	`1024`
`number_of_blocks`	Unsigned integer	Number of data blocks per data message	`1`

This satellite inherits the following framework parameters from its base classes:

Parameter	Type	Description	Default Value
`_bor_timeout`	Unsigned integer	Timeout in seconds to send the BOR message. The satellite will attempt for this interval to send the message and goes into `ERROR` state if it fails to do so. A possible reason for failure is that no receiver satellite connected to this satellite and is receiving data.	10
`_eor_timeout`	Unsigned integer	Timeout in seconds to send the EOR message. The satellite will attempt for this interval to send the message and goes into `ERROR` state if it fails to do so.	10
`_data_timeout`	Unsigned integer	Timeout in seconds to send the data message. The satellite will attempt for this interval to send the message and goes into `ERROR` state if it fails to do so.	10
`_payload_threshold`	Unsigned integer	Threshold for sending data messages in KiB. The satellite will only send queued data records after the combined payload size of the data records has reached this threshold.	128
`_queue_size`	Unsigned integer	Size of the queue for the data records. Small values might lead to performance issues, large values lead to larger memory usage.	32768
`_data_license`	String	License this data is recorded under. Defaults to the Open Data Commons Attribution License. This information will be added to the run metadata.	`ODC-By-1.0`

Parameter	Type	Description	Default Value
`_role`	Role name	Role this satellite should take in the Constellation. Accepted values are `ESSENTIAL`, `DYNAMIC`, `TRANSIENT` and `NONE`.	`DYNAMIC`

Parameters to control autonomous transition orchestration of satellites:

Parameter	Type	Description	Default Value
`_conditional_transition_timeout`	Unsigned integer	Timeout in seconds to wait for all conditions to be satisfied for conditional transitioning	`30`
`_require_initializing_after`	List of strings	List of canonical names of remote satellites for conditional transitioning in `initializing` state	-
`_require_launching_after`	List of strings	List of canonical names of remote satellites for conditional transitioning in `launching` state	-
`_require_landing_after`	List of strings	List of canonical names of remote satellites for conditional transitioning in `landing` state	-
`_require_starting_after`	List of strings	List of canonical names of remote satellites for conditional transitioning in `starting` state	-
`_require_stopping_after`	List of strings	List of canonical names of remote satellites for conditional transitioning in `stopping` state	-

This satellite inherits the following framework metrics from its base classes:

Metric	Description	Value Type	Metric Type	Interval
`TX_BYTES`	Amount of bytes transmitted during current run	Integer	`LAST_VALUE`	10s
`TX_RECORDS`	Number of data records transmitted during current run	Integer	`LAST_VALUE`	10s

None
