robopoint - gateway to robocloud for simple devices
===================================================

[](#robopoint---gateway-to-robocloud-for-simple-devices)

As the headline suggests the purpose of this web app is to provide easier access to robocloud for devices for which it would be too difficult to interact directly. Here are a few concrete examples:

- A simple unit based on an ESP chip is sending meteorology measurement data to robocloud for further processing.
- Robotic mouse that is following a line is seeking a buddy to get help to find the lost line.
- Two maze solvers want to share info on the shortest track to get through a maze.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

- Make sure you read the robocloud README.md file first () to learn about the basics.
- In your symfony project run:

```
composer require martinhej/robopoint

```

- Copy the `robopoint.yaml.dist` to `robopoint.yaml`. You can also move a copy of the file into desired `packages` directory to handle environment specific configuration.
- After addressing Kinesis specific settings (and DynamoDB in case you are going to store messages in DynamoDB table) make sure the `message_schema_dir`and `recovery_file` path settings are correct.
- Deploy to a server of your choice or use the Symfony server bundle `bin/console server:run`.

Push messages to stream
-----------------------

[](#push-messages-to-stream)

At this moment the only reference point for available endpoints is the `robopoint\Controller\Api\V1\MessageController` class. The REST API is far from what it should be and its initial structure is in progress.

POST at the `/messages/` endpoint your first message into the stream. I.e. try

```
{
  "messages":
  	[
      {
          "roboId":"robogarden",
          "purpose":"garden.water_pump.start",
          "data":{
              "pumpId":"demo",
              "runTime":"3200"
          }
      }
	]
}
```

If you get 200 response it should contain the message id and time:

```
{
"messages":
    [
        {
            "messageId": "92089bf40a4ed3a623ba6140fa2a520ab77fcb6d",
            "messageTime": "2018-05-30T15:13:21+0000"
        }
    ]
}
```

Read messages
-------------

[](#read-messages)

Visit `api/v1/messages/robo1/read-by-purpose/garden.water_pump.start` to read the message you just sent.

The response contains `messages` and `lag`. The `lag` is the time in microseconds behind the latest message in the stream.
