barnacles-websocket

barnacles-websocket Emits IoT data to connected websocket clients.

barnacles-websocket ingests a real-time stream of raddec and dynamb objects from barnacles which it emits as messages to connected websocket clients. It couples seamlessly with reelyActive's Pareto Anywhere open source IoT middleware.

barnacles-websocket is a lightweight Node.js package that can run on resource-constrained edge devices as well as on powerful cloud servers and anything in between.

Pareto Anywhere integration

A common application of barnacles-websocket is to write IoT data from pareto-anywhere to a SQL Server database. Simply follow our Create a Pareto Anywhere startup script tutorial using the script below:

#!/usr/bin/env node

const ParetoAnywhere = require("../lib/paretoanywhere.js");

// Edit the options to match your SQL Server configuration
const BARNACLES_WEBSOCKET_OPTIONS = {
  printErrors: true,
};

// ----- Exit gracefully if the optional dependency is not found -----
let BarnaclesWebsocket;
try {
  BarnaclesWebsocket = require("barnacles-websocket");
} catch (err) {
  console.log("This script requires barnacles-websocket.  Install with:");
  console.log('\r\n    "npm install barnacles-websocket"\r\n');
  return console.log("and then run this script again.");
}
// -------------------------------------------------------------------

let pa = new ParetoAnywhere();
pa.barnacles.addInterface(BarnaclesWebsocket, BARNACLES_WEBSOCKET_OPTIONS);
