Getting a working environment up and running for the Infection Monkey is very easy.

Agent

The Agent, (What we refer as the Monkey), is a single Python project under the Chaos Monkey folder. Built for Python 2.7, you can get it up and running by setting up a virtual environment and inside it installing the requirements listed under requirements.txt.

In order to compile the Monkey for distribution by the Monkey Island, you need to run the instructions listed in the readme.txt on each supported environment.

This means setting up an environment with Linux 32/64 bit with Python installed and a Windows 64 bit machine with developer tools + 32/64 bit python versions.

Monkey Island

The Monkey Island is a Python backend React frontend project. Similar to the agent, the backend's requirements are listed in the matching requirements.txt. To setup a working front environment, install the npm packages listed in the package.json file.
