Sample for Sentilo Node.js client library v1.1.0

This is a sample code that uses the Sentilo Nodejs Client Library. The server application file is the server.js file, that imports the library.

Install

First of all it is mandatory to install the local dependencies through npm.

Use the following command:

$ npm install

Config

You must apply a few changes in your code in order to complete the sample configuration.

Follow next steps to configure this sample:

• Download and put in the same directory the Sentilo's Nodejs client library and this sample code
• Edit the server.js file to set your Sentilo instance configurations, and replace the sequences YOUR-SENTILO-INSTANCE-XXX with your custom configurations as it corresponds, such some like this:

var samplesOptions = {
    host : 'YOUR-SENTILO-INSTANCE-HOST-IP',
    port : 'YOUR-SENTILO-INSTANCE-HOST-PORT',
    headers : {
        identity_key : 'YOUR_SENTILO-INSTANCE-DEFAULT-IDENTITY-KEY'
    }
    tokenId : 'YOUR-SENTILO-INSTANCE-IDENTITY-KEY',
    providerTokenId : 'YOUR-SENTILO-INSTANCE-PROVIDER-IDENTITY-KEY',
	providerId  : 'samples-provider',
	sensorId	: 'sample-sensor-nodejs',
	componentType : 'generic',
	sensorDataType : 'TEXT',
	sensorType : 'status',
	sensorUnit : '',
	sensorLocation: '41.4122494 2.2101553'
};

Note that the sensor type must already exist.

Usage

Once you have imported and initialized the sentilo-client-nodejs library, you can invoke the services that you'll find in the node_modules/sentilo-client-nodejs/sentilo.js file (this is a simple wrapper to the service files):

• init : initialize all library client services
• existsSensorInCatalog : test if is there the sensor in the catalog
• createSensor : create the sensor in the catalog
• publishObservations : publish observations to the Sentilo instance
• createAlerts : create alerts passed as list
• publishAlarm : publish an alarm for an alert

For more information, please look at https://github.com/sentilo/sentilo-client-nodejs, where you'll find all the available services.

Running the sample

Run the sample by typping in bash:

$ node server.js
