Comment: Update announcements to clear all but the past 30 days and announce the lates version release

...

The following are announcements related to RMR during the past 30 days; newest announcements first.

2019 August 26:

  • Add message type constants to the RIC message type header file. Minor version bump to 1.4.0.

2019 August 16: 

  • Add message type constants to the RIC message type header file supported within the RMR repo. Minor version bump to 1.3.0.

2019 August 13:

  • Add function rmr_get_xact() to provide a convenience function for extracting the transaction field from the message; minor version bump to 1.2.0.

2019 August 8:

  • The RMR User's Guide has been added to this wiki set. See the link in the developer section below.
  • RMR library version 1.1.0 is being released today. A transport status field is being added to the message buffer structure in order to provide wrapper code with access to the underlying transport provider errno  value (errno is not directly available to all wrappers in all environments).  This is a backwardly compatible change, but a change to the structure portion of the API, so a minor version bump was made.

2019 August 5: 

  • Please see the Supported Transport Mechanisms section below; support for Nanomsg is being dropped (NNG will be the only transport mechanism supported).

The following pages hold information that should be useful to anybody modifying and/or testing RMR itself.

RMR Packages

Several frameworks (wrappers/bindings) are being developed which provide a more simplistic interface to the xAPP developer. Installation of the framework will likely require that the RMR runtime package be installed.  RMR packages (debian and RPM) are currently published on the html site https://packagecloud.io.   

The generic URL below can be used to obtain a list of available packages (current version listed at the top of this page).
https://packagecloud.io/app/o-ran-sc/staging/search?q=rmr&filter=all&filter=all&dist=

Links on these pages redirect to a generalised information HTML page; the actual wget command needed to pull the package is on the right side of these pages near the bottom.

As an example, the following can be added to a Docker file to install the RMR runtime package:


Code Block
languagebash
themeEmacs
titledocker example
linenumberstrue
# Install RMr (runtime and dev) from debian package cached on packagecloud.io
ARG RMR_VER=3.3.0

RUN wget -nv --content-disposition https://packagecloud.io/o-ran-sc/staging/packages/debian/stretch/rmr_${RMR_VER}_amd64.deb/download.deb
RUN dpkg -i rmr_${RMR_VER}_amd64.deb

Support Software

When the RMR runtime package is installed, there may be one or more support binaries which are included. These are installed (by default) into /usr/local/bin. The links below describe each.
