pi-device-net 0.1.30

A set of tools to operate a device network.

Overview

A system for automated device discovery and commmunication, using UDP (for discovery) and MQTT (via mosquito and Paho-mqtt) for communication.

It is a work in progress.

Installation

The Device Net doesn't install on its own, but is part of a Module or Controller as a client library, to manage networking and communications.

When used on a Module, that project needs to add these entries to their requirements.txt:

• paho-mqtt
• pi-device-net

When used on a Controller, that project needs to add these to its requirements.txt:

• paho-mqtt
• pi-device-net>=0.1.20
• mosquito

In addition, on the Controller system, you need to install and launch the Mosquito service during device setup:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mosquitto
