The basic idea of the ns-3 app store would be to store on a server a set of user-submitted metadata which describes various source code packages. Typical metadata would include:

  • name
  • version number
  • description
  • download url
  • untar/unzip command
  • configure command
  • build command
  • list of dependencies (other packages which this package depends upon)

Then, if the user wants to get the wimax module, he would do something like this on his machine: mkdir tmp cd tmp nsdep download wimax # download all packages which wimax depends on too nsdep setup wimax nsdep build wimax
