This example uses node-red but an installation is not required at your machine, as we are using Docker. You can import the json file to receive data from kuksa-val-server. Then you can use the node-red dashboard feature to view data.
The following node red extensions are used in the example flows:
To test the node-red examples, you need node-red and kuksa.val server.
Since we provide docker images to simplify the setup process. You can install the docker at first:
sudo apt install docker.io
Then load kuksa.val docker images:
wget https://github.com/eclipse/kuksa.val/releases/download/0.1.8/kuksa-val-0.1.8-amd64.tar.xz
docker load -i kuksa-val-0.1.8-amd64.tar.xz
Or for arm64:
wget https://github.com/eclipse/kuksa.val/releases/download/0.1.8/kuksa-val-0.1.8-arm64.tar.xz
docker load -i kuksa-val-0.1.8-arm64.tar.xz
After that, just start all needed container using docker-compose.yml:
sudo apt install docker-compose
ARCH=arm64 docker-compose up -d
-d for detach.
Note: You need to be in this directory to be able to start the docker-compose.yml to use docker-compose to start all docker containers or shut down all docker containers:
ARCH=arm64 docker-compose down
Note: At first start, you may need to install the node red extensions under the palette manager.
By default, the mqtt flows will be configured in node-red. You can also use the import feature inside node-red to try the websocket example below.
Now you can view the example under http://<node-red server ip>:1880.
To test the example, you can use the viss test client or use the gps feeder.
In feeders.yml, you can find the experimental config for gps feeder container. You use the following command to also start containers of feeders:
ARCH=arm64 docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f feeders.yml up
mqtt/flows.json subscribes some mqtt topics, which will be published by kuksa-val-server
Note: Do not forget to config your kuksa-val-server to publish the needed topics using the option --mqtt.publish, if you do not use docker-compose.yml to start the kuksa-val-server.
- websocket-subscription.json do the same like the mqtt example above via websocket subscription feature.
- websocket-advanced.json implements a test client and uses secure connection with server
