Introduction

WiseSnail is the short name of Wise Sensor Network Abstract Interactive Layer. It is a layer to define the topology and behavior of sensor network. A complete device represented in WiseSnail includes one virtual gateway, one sensor connectivity interface and several sensor devices. WiseSnail provides a form-like array which we call it infospec array to define tha parameters of sensor device. And a form-like data array updates your real time data. So, you can easy to represent your device by creating several arrays.

Design intention

We refer the data handle flow on Wise-PaaS to design a data layout like right picture. There are two arrays, interface and sensor device, to implement the behavior of gateway. Each variable array includes several tags. A tag is a variable to indicate the parameter on interface or sensor device. So, we have two register functions and assign into two arrays to generate tags.

Structures

Data Type

Description

We provide several types to describe the type of data.

    WISE_VALUE  //for numeric value
    WISE_FLOAT  //for floating point
    WISE_STRING //for string
    WISE_BOOL   //for boolean
    WISE_CUSTOMIZE          //for a customize value, use the following type definition
        WISE_BASE64         // a base64 format data.

Infospec

Description

The infospec structure defines your parameters in sensor device. Those parameter structures will represented in Wise-Paas like a tag. It includes two callback function pointers. You can use the callback pointers to define your own get and set function. The button on Wise-Paas for GPIO will be differed from whether the set function is assigned or not. If the set function is assigned, the value is writable by users on Wise-Paas.

    struct WiseSnail_InfoSpec{
      WiseSnail_DataType type;
      char *name;
      char *unit;
      union {
        float value;
        char *string;
        WiseSnail_RAW *raw;
      };
      float min;
      float max;
      char *resourcetype;
      WiseSnail_SetValue setValue;
      WiseSnail_GetValue getValue;
      WiseSnail_FormatType format;
    };

Example

    {
      WISE_VALUE,                  //WiseSnail_DataType 
      "Temperature",               //name
      "Cel",                       //unit
      0,                           //value or string
      -100,                        //min
      200,                         //max
      "ucum.Cel",                  //resourcetype, optional
      NULL,                        //set function
      NULL                         //get function
    }

Data

Description

The data structure defines your value you want to update in sensor device. The cliendId and infomation is for internal used and will be assigned while your callback function(like set) is called.

    struct WiseSnail_Data{
      WiseSnail_DataType type;
      char *name;
      union {
        float value;
        char *string;
        WiseSnail_RAW *raw;
      };
      WiseSnail_FormatType format;
      char *clientId;              //internal
      WiseSnail_InfoSpec *info;    //internal
    }

Example

    {
      WISE_VALUE,                  //WiseSnail_DataType 
      "Temperature",               //name
      100                          //value or string
    }

Callbacks
