Dobot MG400 Mock Server Package. MG400_Mock let user to replace actual hardware to docker container system. It can make more easy to develop MG400 control system with embeded IK solver.

• Docker

cd MG400_Mock
docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml up

If you want to launch multiple instances (e.g. 3 instances), then

docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml up --scale dobot=3

Docker containers will run in docker's bridge network (172.10.0.0/24), and their IP address can be identified by the following command.

docker inspect -f '{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' docker-dobot-1

If there are more than one docker-dobot container, their name would be docker-dobot-2, docker-dobot-3 etc.

docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml down

docker compose -f docker/test-docker-compose.yml run test_dobot python3 -m unittest discover -s tests
