Developer Installation
If you're extending or debugging MiniNExT, you likely do not want to install to the system's Python library.

Instead, you can run the following command to install MiniNExT in developer mode:

$ sudo make develop
This triggers the development mode that is provided by the setuptools package, which then creates a link instead of performing a complete installation. However, note that the mxexec and supporting help files are still installed into their respective system paths.

To remove, run:

$ sudo make undevelop
Note: MiniNExT no longer forks Mininet
Previously MiniNExT functionality was built by forking and modifying the original Mininet source code. However, this created conflicts with existing Mininet installations and made it difficult to merge in upstream changes. MiniNExT has been redesigned to extend Mininet, and does not impact default Mininet execution.
