Go into the rift-fsm directory that was created when you cloned the git repository:
$ cd rift-python
Make sure the Python environment that you created during the installation is activated. This is needed to make sure you run the right version of Python 3 and that the right versions of all depencency modules can be found:
$ source env/bin/activate (env) $
Start the RIFT protocol engine by runnning the rift package:
(env) $ python rift toplogy/top.yaml Command Line Interface (CLI) available on port 49178
Note that you can simply type python instead of python3 because activing the environment automatically selected the right version of Python:
(env) $ which python /Users/brunorijsman/rift-fsm/env/bin/python (env) $ python --version Python 3.5.1
After you start RIFT, there should be a single line of output reporting that the Command Line Interface (CLI) is available on a particular TCP port (in this example port 49178):
Command Line Interface (CLI) available on port 49178
