# gr-bokehgui: Web based display for GNU Radio
------------------------------

## Overview

The module provides various sinks and widgets to allow interaction with the live GNU Radio applications remotely over the network. The module uses [Bokeh](https://docs.bokeh.org/en/2.4.2/)'s client API and streaming features. Using widgets and plots from Bokeh, the module enables the GUI for GNU Radio that renders in web browser. Just like `gr-qtgui`, it is fully integrated with GRC to allow easy use.

The module was first developed as a part of Google Summer of Code 2017 by Kartik Patel.

## Dependency
1. GNU Radio 3.9.5 or 3.10
2. [Bokeh library above 2.3.1, and below 3.0](https://docs.bokeh.org/en/2.3.2/) (earlier versions cause the waterfall display to crash, and WidgetBox has been removed in later versions)
3. NodeJS >= 14
4. Netstat or ss to check open ports (optionnal)

## Installation
### Using source code
1. Make sure that you have satisfied all dependency listed above.
2. Clone the latest code
```
$ git clone https://github.com/gnuradio/gr-bokehgui.git
```
3. Build with CMake:
```
$ cd gr-bokehgui/
$ mkdir build
$ cd build/
$ cmake ../
$ make
$ sudo make install
```

If you're running Linux, then always remember to do the following command after installing any library:
```
$ sudo ldconfig
```

## Working with the module
The complete tutorial for the module is available [here](http://kartikpatel.in/GSoC2017/tutorial/). The tutorial covers setting up guide, using sinks and widgets in GRC and guide to the placement of the elements.

## Quick Glance
