Overview

This IoT Agent is designed to be a bridge between the Enschede Parking Service and the OMA NGSI standard used in FIWARE. This project communicates directly with the Orion context broker.

Installation

In order to install the TT Agent, just clone the project and install the dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/SaxionSmartCities/fiware-iota-eps.git
npm install

In order to start the IoT Agent, from the root folder of the project, type:

bin/iotagent-eps

Usage

In order to execute the EPS IoT Agent just execute the following command from the root folder:

bin/iotagent-eps.js

This will start the EPS IoT Agent in the foreground. The agent will update the context and finish.

When started with no arguments, the IoT Agent will expect to find a config.js file with the configuration in the root folder. An argument can be passed with the path to a new configuration file (relative to the application folder) to be used instead of the default one.

Configuration

All the configuration for the IoT Agent is stored in a single configuration file (typically installed in the root folder).

This configuration file is a JavaScript file and contains two configuration chapters:

• iota: this object stores the configuration of the Northbound of the IoT Agent, and is completely managed by the IoT Agent library. More information about this options can be found here.
