  • Improve running on OpenWrt

    • [x] Run daemon with old-style init script
    • [x] What to do about logging then?
  • Improve robustness and convenience

    • [x] Send /data.json payload before discrete values
    • [x] After connecting, publish “alive” message to MQTT bus
    • [x] Use appropriate client_id: beradio:{hostname}:{pid}
    • [/] How to handle usernames including ‘@’ characters, like email addresses?
    • [x] Send ping messages each 5 minutes?
    • [x] Get rid of topic='beradio' and topic='hiveeyes'
    • [o] Collect and log globally unhandled exceptions
    • [o] Make self-contained: Either more args from .json config, or from cmdline or env vars!?
    • [o] Make nanosecond timestamp in JSON MQTT message optional?
    • [o] Upgrade to pyserial-3.4?
    • [o] Should we stop on ERROR: Connection to MQTT broker failed?
    • [o] Make things configurable: logging, ping interval, “publisher.all_fields”, etc.
    • [o] Add INFO-level “message received” logging again
  • Improve documentation

    • Ping message
    • Authentication
    • Logging
    • Add UBJSON to serialization format shootout

2016-04-12

  • [o] Add reference to RFM69_ to Intro

  • [o] Collected from notes:

    • RFM69 payload size & fragmentation, see RF69_MAX_DATA_LEN
    • emon forschungsprojekt von christoph
    • emon basiert auf RF12? => RFM69!

improve documentation

  • [o] move some stuff out of README.rst, place into network.rst and also publish @ kotori-daq

  • [o] add docs/rationale about choosing Bencode with reference to JeeLabs

  • [o] aggregate all external http references into links.rst

  • [o] move stuff to Kotori, improve Hiveeyes use-case

  • [o] add graphviz picture via Sphinx extension “sphinx.ext.graphviz”:

    .. graphviz::
    
        digraph fas_components {
            rankdir=TB;
            ranksep=1;
            node[shape="box", fontname="Verdana"];
            edge[fontname="Verdana"];
                "FAS" -> "Janitor";
                "FAS" -> "Unique Object Keys";
                "FAS" -> "Signed Objects";
                "Janitor"[shape=record, label="{ Janitor | Authentication }"];
                "Janitor" -> "Routing";
                "Janitor" -> "Piggyback Events";
                "Unique Object Keys"[shape=record, label="{ Unique Object Keys | Entity addressing }"];
                "Signed Objects"[shape=record, label="{ Signed Objects | { Authorization | Inter-Service-Communication } }"];
        }
    
  • [o] maybe also try Sphinx extensions “sphinxcontrib.seqdiag, sphinxcontrib.blockdiag or sphinxcontrib.nwdiag”,

    see dev/vz/documentation/meta/src/conf.py

  • [o] improve inline docs

  • [o] integrate essentials from “parsing-c-headers.rst” into applications/lst.rst

mqttkit ideas

2015

2015-10-28

  • [x] release management
  • [x] add software tests

Goals

  • Complete bidirectional communication, to make sensor nodes receive commands over the air, e.g. for maintenance purposes. That said, the stack is still lacking the whole chain of:

    MQTT [Linux] --> Serial [Linux] --> Serial [Arduino] --> BERadio --> Node [Arduino]
    
  • Maybe send Bencode encoded ‘’structures’’ over the air, to retain mapping information. This would empower sensor nodes at the beginning of the chain to add named sensor points on demand. It will increase payload size, though.

  • Improve error handling and overall robustness. - decoding ack back to node

2015-10-27

  • [x] don’t pretend on nodeid=2, neither use it for documentation, use nodeid=999 instead!

2015-10-26

  • [x] properly finish beradio-2 convenience in forwarding and manipulation code
  • [x] start with libberadio c++
