wiliot-certificate 4.4.1

A library for certifying Wiliot-compliant boards

wiliot-certificate Version 4.4.0

wiliot-certificate is a Python library that provides tools for testing and certifying boards for compatibility with Wiliot’s ecosystem. This python package includes the following CLI utilities:

• Gateway Certificate (wlt-cert-gw)
• Bridge Certificate (wlt-cert-brg)

Version:

wiliot-certificate versions 4.4.0 are compatible with firmware version 4.4.6 (ESP: 4.4.44, BLE: 4.4.93)

Installing wiliot-certificate

Uninstall wiliot-deployment-tools if installed (relevant for old wlt-gw-certificate users):

pip uninstall wiliot-deployment-tools

Install wiliot-certificate:

pip install wiliot-certificate

Using wiliot-certificate

Gateway Certificate

Test Wiliot Gateway capabilities. The Gateway Certificate includes different test that run sequentially to test each capability reported by the Gateway. To run the Gateway Certificate the Gateway needs to use a public MQTT Broker (Eclipse):

Host: mqtt.eclipseprojects.io TLS TCP Port: 8883 TLS Websocket Port: 443 TCP Port: 1883 Websocket Port: 80

More information can be found at https://mqtt.eclipseprojects.io/.

Bridge Certificate

Test Wiliot Bridge capabilities. The Bridge Certificate includes different tests that run sequentially to test each capability reported by the bridge.

update Gateway sim version :

• Update your gateway and bridge using Wiliot's platform. (https://platform.wiliot.com/)
• Transfer the gateway to dev mode - run the following command: py ut\dev_mode.py --gw [GW] --enable
• Connect the gateway to your laptop via USB connection:
• Run the following: wlt-cert-brg --gw SIM --brg --port <COM_PORT>
• For other options of running, see the 'run example' section.
