Generates the JSON configuration for the behavioral-model (bmv2) <https://github.com/p4lang/behavioral-model>_.

NOTE: This repository is no longer under active development or maintenance. We recommend that you instead consider using the currently developed open source P4 tools, which are p4c <https://github.com/p4lang/p4c>_ and behavioral-model <https://github.com/p4lang/behavioral-model>_.

Important: the PD has been moved out of this repository and split between the bmv2 repository <https://github.com/p4lang/behavioral-model>_ (for fixed part of the PD) and the new p4-build repository <https://github.com/p4lang/p4-build>_ (build infrastructure for the auto-generated / program-dependent part of the PD).

Usage

• To install p4c-bm on your machine:

  • :code:sudo pip install -r requirements.txt
  • :code:sudo pip install -r requirements_v1_1.txt if you are interested in compiling P4 v1.1 programs
  • :code:sudo python setup.py install

• Using p4c-bm

  • Try :code:p4c-bmv2 -h
  • :code:--json to generate a JSON representation of the P4 program
  • :code:--pd to generate the PD C++ code
  • :code:--p4-v1.1 if your input program is a P4 v1.1 program
