Drivers

Python

Requirements:

  • It requires the emqx hosted machine has Python3 Runtimes (not support python2)
  • The python3 executable commands in your shell

Examples:

See test/scripts/main.py

Java

Requirements:

  • It requires the emqx hosted machine has Java 8+ Runtimes
  • An executable commands in your shell, i,g: java

Examples:

See test/scripts/Main.java

Configurations

Name Data Type Options Default Description
drivers Enum python3
java
python3 Drivers type
.path String - data/extension The codes/library search path
.call_timeout Duration - 5s Function call timeout
.pool_size Integer - 8 The pool size for the driver
.init_module String - main The module name for initial call

SDK

See sdk/README.md

Known Issues or TODOs

Configurable Log System

  • use stderr to print logs to the emqx console instead of stdout. An alternative is to print the logs to a file.
  • The Java driver can not redirect the stderr stream to erlang vm on Windows platform.
