RFSwarmAgent

✓ from rfswarm_agent import RFSwarmAgent

✗ from rfswarm_agent import RFSwarmAgent

Initialize and run a RFSwarm Agent connecting to a manager.

Debug

Known issues

gotchaThe import module uses underscores (rfswarm_agent), while the PyPI package name uses hyphens (rfswarm-agent). This mismatch often leads to ImportError.

fix

Use 'from rfswarm_agent import ...' not 'from rfswarm-agent import ...'.

affects: all

deprecatedPython 3.6 support ends; future versions may drop Python <3.9.

fix

Upgrade to Python 3.9+ or pin version 1.5.x.

affects: >=1.5.0, <2.0

gotchaThe agent requires the RFSwarm Manager to be running and accessible. Agents started without a manager will hang until timeout.

fix

Ensure the manager URL is correct and the manager is running before starting the agent.

affects: all

breakingIn version 1.5.0, the RFSwarmManagerURL parameter was renamed to manager_url. Older code using the old parameter name will raise TypeError.

fix

Update your code: change 'RFSwarmManagerURL' to 'manager_url' when instantiating RFSwarmAgent.

affects: >=1.5.0
