how to convert .py profiles to .json profile

[Amith A Shetty]

We are planning to create an automation that uses Trex RPC Server to interact.(https://trex-tgn.cisco.com/trex/doc/trex_rpc_server_spec.html)

But from the spec I noted that there is no way to use .py profile(Both STL and ASTF) instead we need to use .json profile in Trex RPC Server.

So "Is there a way to generate .json profile from .py file?"

Thanks,

Amith

Hi Amith, 

Yes, the profile.py is just a way to build a json. the specification should be part of the RPC spec (maybe not up to date but you can always do a reverse eng)

Could you say what is the reason to interact directly with the RPC API? is it to create a new language client? 

Thanks
