FPrime-CLI with GDS on non-standard port

[elankford]

I am trying to execute an fprime-cli command-send to a GDS running on a non-standard port. The CLI documentation page (https://nasa.github.io/fprime/UsersGuide/gds/gds-cli.html#command-send) says that you can pass a "-p" argument, but I am getting an unrecognized arguments error when I do that.

How can I pass the "ip-port" of the GDS to a fprime-cli command? For reference, I have the most recent version of Fprime in my project.

The arguments should be the same as the one you used to spin up fprime-gds, so likely --tts-port.

You can see all the options with fprime-cli command-send --help

I'm running two instances of my gds with the following arguments (different ports for each): fprime-gds -n --dictionary [NAME] --packet-spec [NAME] --zmq --zmq-server --ip-port [PORT] -g none --gui-port [PORT]--tts-port [PORT].

When I run fprime-cli command-send [CMD] --arguments [ARGS] --dictionary [NAME] --packet-spec [NAME] --zmq --zmq-server --tts-port [PORT] the command is sent to the newest GDS, regardless of the tts-port specified.

Update: Running without using ZMQ solves the issue.

The TTS port needs to be the same across all clients of the GDS network. --zmq bypasses this using ZMQ as a distribution layer. It is the preferred solution and will soon become the default.
