Push Static Attributes of one Wasserportal Station to ThingsBoard

Sends station metadata (coordinates, level reference, operator, ...) as client-side attributes to the ThingsBoard device attributes endpoint (/api/v1/{token}/attributes). Attributes are key/value pairs without a timestamp; ThingsBoard overwrites the previous value on every push.

Usage

tb_push_station_attributes(
  attributes,
  device_token,
  host = Sys.getenv("TB_HOST", unset = "https://thingsboard.cloud")
)

Arguments

attributes

named list (or a one-row data frame, which is converted to a list). All entries must be JSON-serialisable scalars.

device_token

ThingsBoard device access token.

host

base URL of the ThingsBoard instance. Defaults to env var TB_HOST if set, otherwise "https://thingsboard.cloud".

Value

invisibly the number of attributes that were sent.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
tb_push_station_attributes(
  attributes = list(
    name = "Pegel Mueggelheim",
    latitude = 52.4291,
    longitude = 13.6450,
    pegelnullpunkt_m_NHN = 32.18
  ),
  device_token = Sys.getenv("TB_DEVICE_TOKEN_5867000")
)
} # }
