Agile core components

This repository contains the alpha version of the following AGILE components:

Prerequisites

For the compilation, the following packages needs to be installed:

  • gettext git cmake

A java 8 compatible JDK and maven (mvn) must be already available in the system.

JAVA_HOME must be set for compilation to work.

Agile Protocol Manager

Exposes the org.eclipse.agail.ProtocolManager interface

  • DBus interface name org.eclipse.agail.ProtocolManager
  • DBus interface path /org/eclipse/agail/ProtocolManager

Example

The package org.eclipse.agail.protocolmanager.example contains an example file (i.e BLEDeviceDiscovery.java) to demonstrate the use of AGILE Protocol Manager to discover BLE devices through DBus interface.

AGILE Device Manager

Exposes the org.eclipse.agail.DeviceManager interface

  • DBus interface name org.eclipse.agail.DeviceManger
  • DBus interface path /org/eclipse/agail/DeviceManager

Example

Register BLE Device The package org.eclipse.agail.devicemanager.example contains an example file (i.e RegisterDevice.java) to demonstrate the usage of Agile Device Manager for device registration and creation of DBus interface for the registered device

Additional interfaces

  • org.eclipse.agail.Device
    • DBus interface base name org.eclipse.agail.device.[device name]

    • DBus interface base path /org/eclipse/agail/Device/[device name]

      Example

      • Connect BLE Device(TI SensorTag): The ConnectDevice.java file in org.eclipse.agail.devicemanager.example package demonstrates the usage of Agile org.eclipse.agail.Device Dbus interface to connect a TI SensorTag device.
      • Read Data: The ReadData.java file in org.eclipse.agail.devicemanager.example package demonstrates the usage of org.eclipse.agail.Device DBus interface in order to read temperature data from TI SensorTag temperature sensor/service.

AGILE Device Factory

Exposes the org.eclipse.agail.DeviceFactory interface

  • DBus interface name org.eclipse.agail.DeviceFactory
  • DBus interface path /org/eclipse/agail/DeviceFactory

The DeviceFactory can also load device implementation from a plugin folder. This plugin folder should be part of the classpath and also specified as the first parameter to the DeviceFactory. Class files with device implementation must implement the org.eclipse.egail.Device interface, and should be placed directly in the org.eclipse.agail.device.instance package. Class files must be placed in the plugin folder structured in a folder hierarchy corresponding to the package, i.e. the usual Java way: /org/eclipse/agail/device/instance/MyNewAgileDevice.class.

HTTP API

The DBus API can be used from the HTTP endpoint exposed by default on port 8080.

See the HTTP API reference for details on the exposed endpoints.

To query the endpoint, we suggest using Postman by importing the swagger based API definition

Launching the API

Under the scripts directory you can find different scripts to setup and start / stop the modules.

  • ./scripts/start.sh will install (if not available) all the dependencies required to run and start the modules.

    To control which component to start:

    • ./scripts/start.sh ProtocolManager starts only the Protocol Manager module
    • ./scripts/start.sh DeviceManager starts only the Device Manager module
    • ./scripts/start.sh http starts only the HTTP API module
  • ./scripts/stop.sh will kill all the modules.

    To control which component to stop (based on pkill -f pattern):

    • ./scripts/stop.sh protocolmanager stop only the Protocol Manager module
    • ./scripts/stop.sh devicemanager stop only the Device Manager module
    • ./scripts/stop.sh http stop only the HTTP API module
  • ./scripts/install-deps.sh is used to setup all the java and native dependencies to a local directory (placed in the ./deps folder)
