Introduction

IEC Akraino Edge Stack supports AR/VR applications. It could support AR/VR Algorithms that with GPU Modeling (i.e. modeling describes the process of forming the shape of an object) Compositing (e.g. Environmental Mapping, Tone Mapping) Rendering and Illumination Models Visualization of Large Volume 3D Models (e.g. Global Network Operations Center monitoring) Registration (e.g. Stitching data from distributed sources) Segmentation (e.g. Segmentation and detection for security monitoring). This IEC Type 4 AR/VR platform utilizes Tars for remote direct memory access control. In this document, we use Virtual Classroom as demo for IEC Type4. Virtual Classroom is an online learning environment that allows teachers and students to communicate and interact with each other in real time. We use WebGL, Three.js and JavaScript to develop Virtual Classroom application.

If you have problems to install mysql with the above step, add the new mysql repository to local server with this yum command and then re-run the previous commands.

sudo yum localinstall https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql57-community-release-el7-10.noarch.rpm

yum install mariadb-server -y

## Configure mysql
systemctl start mariadb.service
systemctl enable mariadb.service
systemctl status mariadb.service
mysql -u root -p

grep "password" /var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log

ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '${your passwd}';
flush privileges;

2. Install develop environment for Tars
yum install -y npm
npm i -g pm2

wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.33.11/install.sh | bash
source ~/.bashrc

nvm install v8.11.3
npm install -g pm2 --registry=https://registry.npm.taobao.org

mkdir Tars && cd Tars
git clone https://github.com/TarsCloud/TarsFramework.git --recursive
cd TarsFramework/build
chmod u+x build.sh
./build.sh prepare
./build.sh all

###Recompile if needed.###

./build.sh cleanall
./build.sh all

Change to user root and create the installation directory.

cd /usr/local
mkdir tars
mkdir app
chown ${normal user}:${normal user} ./tars/
chown ${normal user}:${normal user} ./app/

cd
cd Tars/TarsFramework/build/
./build.sh install or make install

The default install path is /usr/local/tars/cpp。
If you want to install on different path:

**modify tarscpp/CMakeLists.txt**
**modify TARS_PATH in tarscpp/servant/makefile/makefile.tars**
**modify DEMO_PATH in tarscpp/servant/script/create_tars_server.sh**

var OPENVIDU_SERVER_SECRET = 'MY_SECRET'; //backend password

Run Testing: https://$your_host_IP:8080

Installation on VM2(Jenkins Master)

Jenkins is a Java application, so the first step is to install Java. Run the following command to install the OpenJDK 8 package:

sudo yum install -y java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel

The next step is to enable the Jenkins repository. To do that, import the GPG key using the following curl command:

curl --silent --location http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org/redhat-stable/jenkins.repo | sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/jenkins.repo

And add the repository to your system with:

sudo rpm --import https://jenkins-ci.org/redhat/jenkins-ci.org.key

Once the repository is enabled, install the latest stable version of Jenkins by typing:

sudo yum install -y jenkins

After the installation process is completed, start the Jenkins service with:

sudo systemctl start jenkins

To check whether it started successfully run:

systemctl status jenkins

You should see something similar to this:

# systemctl status jenkins
* jenkins.service - LSB: Jenkins Automation Server
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/jenkins; bad; vendor preset: disabled)
   Active: active (running) since Tue 2019-10-15 11:16:26 CST; 1min 15s ago
     Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8)
  Process: 489 ExecStart=/etc/rc.d/init.d/jenkins start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
   CGroup: /system.slice/jenkins.service

Oct 15 11:16:25 VM_0_4_centos systemd[1]: Starting LSB: Jenkins Automation Server...
Oct 15 11:16:26 VM_0_4_centos runuser[491]: pam_unix(runuser:session): session opened for user jenkins by (uid=0)
Oct 15 11:16:26 VM_0_4_centos runuser[491]: pam_unix(runuser:session): session closed for user jenkins
Oct 15 11:16:26 VM_0_4_centos jenkins[489]: Starting Jenkins [  OK  ]
Oct 15 11:16:26 VM_0_4_centos systemd[1]: Started LSB: Jenkins Automation Server.

Finally enable the Jenkins service to start on system boot.

sudo systemctl enable jenkins

output

# sudo systemctl enable jenkins
jenkins.service is not a native service, redirecting to /sbin/chkconfig.
Executing /sbin/chkconfig jenkins on

Adjust the Firewall If you are installing Jenkins on a remote CentOS server that is protected by a firewall you need to port 8080.

Use the following commands to open the necessary port:

sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-port=8080/tcp
sudo firewall-cmd --reload

Setting Up Jenkins To set up your new Jenkins installation, open your browser and type your domain or IP address followed by port 8080:

http://your_ip_or_domain:8080

Developer Guide and Troubleshooting

Virtual Classroom demo includes two parts: (1) server side and (2) client side. The technologies used to develop these applications includes WebGL, Three.js and JavaScript.

The code could be find at:

git clone https://github.com/OpenVidu/openvidu-vr.git

cd /root/openvidu-vr/openvidu-vr-room/

sed -i 's/demos.openvidu.io/${Local_IP_Address}/g' app.js

To execute:

docker run --rm --name openvidu_server -d -p 4443:4443 -e openvidu.secret=MY_SECRET -e openvidu.publicurl=https://${Local_IP_Address}:4443/ openvidu/openvidu-server-kms

Uninstall Guide

Stop all tars processes

/usr/local/app/tars/tars-stop.sh

2. Delete files

rm -rf /usr/local/app/tars

rm -rf /usr/local/app/patchs

rm -rf /usr/local/app/web

rm -rf /usr/local/tars

3. Delete crontab

crontab -e

**Delete this line " * * * * * /usr/local/app/tars/tarsnode/util/monitor.sh "**
