gobotics

Imagine a robotics solution that provides:

• robotics apis and libraries middleware
• policy interfaces to robotic devices
• DB services, secure communication layers, and policy administration.
• clean interfaces with command and control of robotic communities and swarms through
• access and control via commandline tool & webportal
• can be used as director level software services to control bots from shop floor, through the supply chain, all the way to customer delivery and billing.

Gobotics is a skunkworkds proof of concept project to help us learn more about golang/web development. It tries to focus on the IoT/device space.

Currently it is composed of the following:

• gobotics_server: REST API server (golang) - A simple CRUD REST API to add,get,update, & delete information on devices.
• gobotics_client: a commandline client to the gobotics_server (golang)
• gobotics-frontend: React Frontend web application

Pending:

• Frontend WebApp: TODO React/Redux web application
• actual robotics apis and libraries? (unsure what this will actually be.)

TODO

• client library

• ssl

• jwt cookie

• better go coding habbits

• logging

• Front end <- -> backend

• Swagger

• Protobuff

• Cassandra Client

• Have AddDevice return a uuid, that people can use to query later! ( will help with Cassandra etc) Natural key? Surrogate key - UUID? Partition key, clustering column? Get all devices could be problematically large ( paginate, skip if using casandra?)

The server will run mostly on ssl. To generate dev certs use: $ openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem -days 3000 -nodes
