Running a negotiation session via command line

First you need to create an xml file which contains the details of a negotiation session. An example xml file (multilateraltournament.xml can be:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<multilateralTournamentsConfiguration>
  <tournaments>
    <tournament>
      <deadline>
        <value>180</value>
        <type>TIME</type>
      </deadline>
      <protocolItem hasMediatorProfile="false" hasMediator="false"
        description="Each agents makes offer, counter-offer, or accepts"
        classPath="negotiator.protocol.StackedAlternatingOffersProtocol"
        protocolName="Stacked Alternating Offers Protocol for Multi-Lateral Negotiation (SAOPMN)" />
      <partyRepItems>
        <party classPath="../out/production/ExampleAgent/ExampleAgent.class">
          <properties />
        </party>
        <party classPath="agents.anac.y2015.pokerface.PokerFace">
          <properties />
        </party>
        <party
          classPath="agents.anac.y2015.TUDMixedStrategyAgent.TUDMixedStrategyAgent">
          <properties />
        </party>
      </partyRepItems>
      <partyProfileItems>
        <item url="file:etc/templates/partydomain/party1_utility.xml" />
        <item url="file:etc/templates/partydomain/party2_utility.xml" />
        <item url="file:etc/templates/partydomain/party3_utility.xml" />
      </partyProfileItems>
      <repeats>1</repeats>
      <numberOfPartiesPerSession>3</numberOfPartiesPerSession>
      <repetitionAllowed>false</repetitionAllowed>
      <persistentDataType>DISABLED</persistentDataType>
    </tournament>
  </tournaments>
</multilateralTournamentsConfiguration>

You can add multiple tournaments, different deadline and repeat configuration in this file.

Then, you can run a negotiation session via command line without Genius GUI by running this command: java -cp negosimulator.jar negotiator.xml.multipartyrunner.Runner multilateraltournament.xml

You should expect these outputs:

➜  genius git:(master) ✗ pwd
/Users/tdgunes/Projects/ExampleAgent/genius
➜  genius git:(master) ✗ java -cp negosimulator.jar negotiator.xml.multipartyrunner.Runner multilateraltournament.xml
This is the Genius multilateral tournament runner command line tool
Currently you are using using Genius 7.1.6
Input file: multilateraltournament.xml
Provide path to output logfile [default: logs/Log-XmlRunner-20171102-114228.csv]:
