Edge software for Laird Connectivity gateways. Forwards raddecs from the gateway's BL654 Bluetooth Low Energy module to:
- a remote server via UDP and/or webhook (HTTP POST), and/or
- an Elasticsearch database, and/or
- Google Analytics
From the gateway, clone this repository, browse to its root, then run:
npm install
The serialport dependency may fail. In this case, a version of serialport precompiled for Laird Linux will need to be manually copied to the node_modules folder.
All configuration parameters can be found in the file config/config.js. Update only this file, as required.
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| RADDEC_TARGETS | Array of targets for raddec data (see below) |
| DIRACT_PROXIMITY_TARGETS | Array of targets for diract-proximity data |
| DIRACT_DIGEST_TARGETS | Array of targets for diract-digest data |
| ES_NODE | Path to Elasticsearch node |
| IS_UDP_BROADCAST | Set to true only if target is UDP broadcast (default: true) |
| ENABLE_MIXING | Combine multiple decodings of an individual transmitter into a single raddec (default: true) |
| MIXING_DELAY_MILLISECONDS | Mixing delay of radio decodings (default: 1000) |
| RADDEC_FILTER_PARAMETERS | (see raddec-filter) |
| INCLUDE_TIMESTAMP | Include the optional timestamp in each raddec (default: true) |
| INCLUDE_PACKETS | Include the optional packets in each raddec (default: true) |
| IS_DEBUG_MODE | Set true and run in console to see log output |
Each raddec target in the RADDEC_TARGETS array is an object with the following properties:
- host: an IP address or hostname (ex: '192.168.1.10')
- port: the target port (default: 50001)
- protocol: either 'udp', 'webhook' (HTTP POST), 'elasticsearch' or 'ua' (Google Analytics)
- tid: required only for Google Analytics (ex: 'UA-1234567-8')
- options: based on the protocol as follows
- webhook defaults are { useHttps: false, path: "/raddecs" }
- ua defaults are { useHttps: true, path: "/collect", page: "/laird-gateway" }
To broadcast UDP to all devices on the subnet, set the host to the corresponding broadcast address (ex: 255.255.255.255) and set IS_UDP_BROADCAST to true.
The DIRACT_PROXIMITY_TARGETS and DIRACT_DIGEST_TARGETS support the 'webhook' and 'elasticsearch' protocols, as described above.
