Guidelines for REST development or alternatives.

[Miguel Nunes]

Hi all,

I have been able to compile Jemma 0.9 rc2 successfuly and also been able to send messages using REST.
Today I felt I had a problem.

I seem to have some problems understanding the modis operandis of the REST interface...
Is it true that when I use REST, I need to encode/decode ZCL packets on my own?
The only thing I need is to get timestamp+value of a cluster attribute.

What do you suggest me to focus on to achieve this?

Sorry for taking your time.

Thanks in advance.

Dear Miguel,

you don't need to encode/decode zcl messages, REST APIs rely on top of OSGi Device Abstraction Layer which is not ZigBee-dependent.

To understand how to interact with REST APIs and how to set-up a test environment with fake devices you can take a look to this page:
https://github.com/ismb/it.ismb.pert.osgi.dal.web-apis/blob/master/README.md


If you want to know all Functions which are exposed by ZigBee devices in JEMMA you can take a look at this page:
https://github.com/ismb/jemma/wiki/JEMMA-DAL-APIs-functions

For instance, if you are looking for the InstantaneousDemand of a device exposing a SimpleMeteringServer cluster, you can send a post request to a function EnergyMeter

URL: http://localhost/api/functions/ZigBee:myFunction:EnergyMeter
POST BODY:{"operation":"getData"}


I hope this helps.


Best Regards.
Ivan
