App Functions SDK

See https://github.com/edgexfoundry/app-functions-sdk-go/blob/master/README.md for details on writing custom Application Service using the app-functions-sdk-go.

Examples: https://github.com/edgexfoundry/app-functions-sdk-go/tree/master/examples

Application Service Configurable

See https://github.com/edgexfoundry/app-service-configurable/blob/master/README.md for details on usage.

See Extending EdgeX section of https://www.edgexfoundry.org/blog/2019/09/26/edgex-open-hackathon-snaps/ for details.

Device Service SDK

See https://docs.edgexfoundry.org/Ch-GettingStartedSDK-Go.html for details on creating custom device service using the device-sdk-go

Examples: https://github.com/edgexfoundry/device-random https://github.com/edgexfoundry/device-virtual-go

REST Device Service

This is a new device service that simplifies pushing data to EdgeX via HTTP POSTs. If interested in using this you will have to clone the repo, checkout the hackbranch and the build and run it locally.

See https://github.com/lenny-intel/device-rest-go/blob/initial/README.md for details on usage.

RFID Card Readers

Two RFID Card readers and card sets are available for teams to use. This will required creating a USB Device Service to communicate with the card reader, which are HID devices. The USB VID/PID for these readers is:

  • VID = 0xffff
  • PID = 0x35
  • VendorName = "Sycreader USB Reader"

The github.com/gvalkov/golang-evdev go package can be used to read the data from these card readers.

Note: Each character from the card is read one at a time, rather than as one complete string.
