What's inside?
It includes three nodes:
globalcache-controller
: a unique CONFIG node that holds connection configuration for GlobalCache and will acts as the encapsulator for GlobalCache access. As a node-red 'config' node, it cannot be added to a graph, but it acts as a singleton object that gets created in the the background when you add an 'gc' or 'gc-device' node and configure it accordingly.globalcache-out
: GlobalCache output node that can send GlobalCache, so it can be used with function blocks.globalcache-in
: GlobalCache listener node, who emits flow messages based on activity on the GlobalCache bus. Not working in v0.2.0.
Message for GlobalCache output node contains fields:
payload
- (REQUIRED) must be JavaScript object or a string, an example:
{
"serial":"setstate,1:1,1"
}
or
setstate,1:1,1
If one specify three parameters: unit_number
, output
and command
, than all incoming string commands will be transformed into GlobalCache packet: [command],[unit_number]:[output],[command]
format
- must be equalccf
