v0.1.5

First Public Release

This is the first public release of Kudzu Analytics Packet Forwarder and the respective API interfaces.

Running

You can find the respective binary for your CPU architecture in the release assets. The UDP forwarder acts as a man-in-the-middle for any gateway that uses the UDP packet forwarder.

You can try the following quick instructions:

1. Adjust your current LoRa packet forwarder to send the data to 127.0.0.1 instead of your LoRaWAN server
2. Use both uplink and downlink port 1800
3. Create a configuration file (eg. kudzu-forwarder.conf with the following contents):

   # The following parameters are obtained from the Kudzu Analytics
   # platform https://analytics.v2.kudzu.gr/
   client-id=
   client-key=
   gateway=
   
   # Configure your LoRaWAN server
   connect-host=eu1.cloud.thethings.network
   connect-port-up=1700
   connect-port-down=1700
   
   # Make forwarder listen on localhost
   listen-host=127.0.0.1
   listen-port-up=1800
   listen-port-down=1800   

4. Start your kudzu forwarder:

   ./kudzu-forwarder --config=kudzu-forwarder.conf
