Given an eci, get the pico_id that owns that channel.
Parameter | Datatype | Required |
---|---|---|
<eci> | <string> | YES |
pico_id = engine:getPicoIDByECI(eci) /* "some_pico_id" */ |
List all the channels for the given pico_id.
Parameter | Datatype | Required |
---|---|---|
<pico_id> | <string> | YES |
channels = engine:listChannels(pico_id) /* [ { "id" : "eci-0...", "name": "name 0", "type": "type 0" }, { "id" : "eci-1...", "name": "name 1", "type": "type 1" } ] */ |
List all enabled ruleset ids. No parameters are given.
rids = engine:listAllEnabledRIDs(); /* ["io.picolabs.pico", "io.picolabs.logging"] */ |
Given a ruleset id, get more information about it.
Parameter | Datatype | Required |
---|---|---|
<rid> | <string> | YES |
desc = engine:describeRuleset("io.picolabs.hello_world"); /* { "rid": "io.picolabs.hello_world", "src": "ruleset io.picolabs.hello_world{ ...<cut for brevity> ... }", "hash": "a096f2f3bfbd63e54bf4f39081814dbc895f3f003ae9918dbe24aec8acc097b9", "url": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Picolab/node-pico-engine-core/master/test-rulesets/hello-world.krl", "timestamp_stored": "2017-05-17T21:31:21.663Z", "timestamp_enable": "2017-05-17T21:31:21.663Z", "meta": { "name": "Hello World", "description": "\nA first ruleset for the Quickstart\n ", "author": "Phil Windley" } } */ |
newPico
Creates a new pico. No parameters are given.
engine:newPico() setting(resp) /* { "id" : <new_pico_id> } */ |
Note: newPico does not provide an eci. This action is used in conjunction with engine:createChannel to create a pico with both an id and eci. See wranglerNPE.krl for an example of how to fully create a pico according to a given prototype.
Parameter | Datatype | Required |
---|---|---|
<pico_id> | <string> | YES |
engine:removePico(id) |
Creates a new channel for a pico (identified to the engine by the pico_id parameter).
Parameter | Datatype | Required |
---|---|---|
<pico_id> | <string> | YES |
<name> | <string> | YES |
<type> | <string> | YES |
engine:newChannel(id, "channel_name", "channel_type") setting(resp) /* { "id" : <new_eci>, "name": "channel_name", "type": "channel_type" } */ |
Note: "id" in the resp body is the given pico's new channel eci, not the original id passed into the function.
Removes a channel whose eci matches the provided eci. This comparison and deletion takes place on the pico with the provided id.
Parameter | Datatype | Required |
---|---|---|
<eci> | <string> | YES |
engine:removeChannel("eci123...") |
Parameter | Datatype | Required |
---|---|---|
<url> | <string> | YES |
<base> | <string> | NO |
Fetch the ruleset krl code given by the `url` and register in the engine.
If you provide `base` then it will be resolved with the url. For example, `base` is "http://raw.githubusercontent.com" and `url` is "/username/repository1/file.txt" then the engine will register `http://raw.githubusercontent.com/username/repository1/file.txt`
Attempting to register a ruleset with the same rid as a rule that is already registered will pull the ruleset from the given base/url and act as an update action, overwriting the current file with the one from the remote repository.
If you register a ruleset sharing a rid with a system ruleset, the system ruleset will be restored when the engine is restarted.
engine:registerRuleset("some.cool.ruleset.krl") setting(resp) with base = "http://example.com/krl-files/" /* "some.cool.ruleset.id" */ |
Unregisters the ruleset given by the rid, or list of rids. It will throw an error if the ruleset is installed on any picos, or depended on by another ruleset.
Parameter | Datatype | Required |
---|---|---|
<rid> | string | array | YES |
engine:unregisterRuleset("myRuleset") engine:unregisterRuleset(["rid.1", "rid.2"]) |
Installs ruleset(s) into a pico.
Parameter | Datatype | Required |
---|---|---|
<pico_id> | <string> | YES |
<rid> | string | array | NO |
<url> | <string> | NO |
<base> | <string> | NO |
The "base" key will have a value that contains the domain name where your krl file is located. ex: "http://raw.githubusercontent.com"
The "url" key will complete the path appended to the base. ex: "/repository1/file.txt"
There are three options provided for a successful install with these parameters:
1) You may provide the "rid" (excluding the "base" and "url" keys) if you know that the ruleset is already registered with the engine.
2) Provide the base and url in their respective parts as described above.
3) Just provide the full url (in the "url" key) where your ruleset is located, leaving the "base" undefined or as an empty string.
Do not provide the "rid" key if you want to retrieve the krl file from a remote repository (just provide the "base" and "url" keys). If you provide the "rid" key at all, this function will assume the ruleset is already registered with the engine and will simply throw an error if it is not found, ignoring the "base" and "url" as if they were not submitted. If the "base" and "url" are provided, then the krl file will be registered to the engine (if not already) and then installed on the pico with the given "pico_id".
engine:installRuleset( ent:id, "wrangler" ) setting(resp) /* "wrangler" */ engine:installRuleset( ent:id, ["wrangler","Pds"] ) setting(resp) /* ["wrangler","Pds"] */ engine:installRuleset( ent:id ) setting(resp) with base = <base> and url = <url> /* "the.rid.at.that.url" */ |
uninstall a ruleset from a pico.
Parameter | Datatype | Required |
---|---|---|
<pico_id> | <string> | YES |
<rid> | string | array | YES |
This does not return anything
engine:uninstallRuleset( meta:picoId, "myRuleset") engine:uninstallRuleset( meta:picoId, ["rid.1", "rid.2"]) |
