ZAP is a generic generation engine and user interface for applications and libraries based on Zigbee Cluster Library, the specification developed by the Zigbee Alliance.
ZAP allows you to perform the following:
- perform tailored generation of all global artifacts (constants, types, IDs, etc) based on the ZCL specification
- provide UI for the end-user to select specific application configuration (clusters, attributes, commands, etc.)
- provide tailored generation engine to convert user selected configuration, into sets of generated artifacts that can plug into any ZCL-based middleware or networking stack solutions.
ZAP is a generic templating engine. Examples are provided for how to generate artifacts for the C language environment, but one could easily add new templates for other language environments, such as C++, java, node.js, python or any other.
This is a node.js application. In order to run it, you need to have npm installed. The best way is to simply download latest install of node and you will get npm. If you have an older version of node installed on your workstation, it may give you trouble, particularly if it's very old. So make sure you have decently recent (v12.x or v14.x should work as of 2021) version of node available. Run node --version
to check what version is picked up.
Once you have a desired version of node, you can run:
npm ci
which will download install all the project dependencies. It is not uncommon to run into native library compilation problems at this point.
There are various src-script/install-*
scripts for different platforms. Please refer to FAQ for additional details of which script to run on different platforms and then rerun npm ci
.
Then run:
npm run zap
