Reads data from the iNode.pl Bluetooth Low Energy devices using BLE, iNode LANs and iNode GSMs and exposes it through HTTP and MODBUS.
- Node.js >= v4
- iNode.pl Bluetooth Low Energy devices
- Bluetooth Low Energy adapter (optional, Raspberry PI 3 is fine; see the noble's Prerequisites section)
git clone https://github.com/morkai/inode-server.git
cd inode-server
npm install
Start with a config file (config.json) from the current working directory:
npm start
Start with a custom config file:
npm start -- ./example/config.json
If the http module is enabled, then all devices are available through
HTTP under the /devices resource.
A single device is accessible through /devices/<mac-address>
or /devices/<modbus-unit>.
iNode GSM can POST data to the http.gsmUploadUrl resource.
If there are any slaves defined, then all devices are available through MODBUS.
See the h5.modbus project for information about the available slave definitions.
See the h5.modbus.inode project for information about the exposed registers.
If the ws module is enabled, then all devices are available through
WebSockets under the resource specified in the path config option.
The server sends various events to connected clients. Each event is
a JSON object with type and data properties.
The ping event is sent if there weren't any other broadcasts sent
in pingInterval ms.
The device:add event is sent when a new device is discovered.
The data is an array of added devices. A list of all devices is sent
to a client as soon as it connects.
The device:remove event is sent when an existing device is removed.
The data event is an object with a device property which contains
a MAC address of the removed device.
The device:change event is sent when a state of aby device changes.
The data event is an object with a device property which contains
a MAC address of the changed device and a changes property which is
an object of changed properties.
The client may send ping events to which the server will respond with
pong event.
Configuration is specified in a JSON file passed to the server.js as
the first argument.
