Main front-end tool reference
=============================
Main front-end tools
====================
These are the top-level commands used to run and manage ARTIQ experiments. Not all of the ARTIQ front-end is described here (many additional useful commands are presented in this manual in :doc:`utilities`) but these together comprise the main points of access for using ARTIQ as a system.
:mod:`artiq.frontend.artiq_run`
-------------------------------
.. Note that ARTIQ frontend has no docstrings and the ..automodule directives display nothing; they are there to make :mod: references function correctly, since sphinx-argparse does not support links to ..argparse directives in the same way.

ARTIQ Firmware Service (AFWS) client
------------------------------------
.. automodule:: artiq.frontend.afws_client
This tool serves as a client for building tailored firmware and gateware from M-Lab's servers and downloading the binaries in ready-to-flash format. It is necessary to have a valid subscription to AFWS to use it. Subscription also includes general helpdesk support and can be purchased or extended by contacting ``sales@``. One year of support is included with any Kasli carriers or crates containing them purchased from M-Labs. Additional one-time use is generally provided with purchase of additional cards to facilitate the system configuration change.

Static compiler
---------------
This tool compiles an experiment into a ELF file. It is primarily used to prepare binaries for the startup and idle kernels, loaded in non-volatile storage of the core device. Experiments compiled with this tool are not allowed to use RPCs, and their ``run`` entry point must be a kernel.

Flash storage image generator
-----------------------------
This tool compiles key/value pairs (e.g. configuration information) into a binary image suitable for flashing into the storage space of the core device. It can be used in combination with ``artiq_flash`` to configure the core device, but this is normally necessary at most to set the ``ip`` field; once the core device is reachable by network it is preferable to use ``artiq_coremgmt config``.

Compiles key/value pairs (e.g. configuration information) into a binary image suitable for flashing into the storage space of the core device. It can be used in combination with ``artiq_flash`` to configure the core device, but this is normally necessary at most to set the ``ip`` field; once the core device is reachable by network it is preferable to use ``artiq_coremgmt config``.

Allows for flashing and loading of various files onto the core device. Not applicable to ARTIQ-Zynq, where gateware and firmware should be loaded onto the core device with :mod:`~artiq.frontend.artiq_coremgmt`, directly copied onto the SD card, or (for developers) using the :ref:`ARTIQ netboot <zynq-jtag-boot>` utility.

Core device management tool
---------------------------
The core management utility gives remote access to the core device logs, the :ref:`core-device-flash-storage`, and other management functions.
.. automodule:: artiq.frontend.artiq_coremgmt
To use this tool, it is necessary to specify the IP address your core device can be contacted at. If no option is used, the utility will assume there is a file named ``device_db.py`` in the current directory containing the device database; otherwise, a device database file can be provided with ``--device-db`` or an address directly with ``--device`` (see also below).
