IEC104 C/C++ South plugin

A simple asynchronous IEC104 plugin that pulls data from a server and sends it to Fledge.

To build this plugin, you will need the lib60870 library installed on your environment as described below.

You also need to have Fledge installed from the source code, not from the package repository.

Building lib60870

To build IEC104 C/C++ South plugin, you need to download lib60870 at: https://github.com/mz-automation/lib60870

$ git clone https://github.com/mz-automation/lib60870.git
$ cd lib60870
$ export LIB_104=`pwd`

As shown above, you need a $LIB_104 env var set to the source tree of the library.

Then, you can build lib60870 with:

$ cd lib60970-C
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make

Build

To build the iec104 plugin, once you are in the plugin source tree you need to run:

$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make

• By default the Fledge develop package header files and libraries are expected to be located in /usr/include/fledge and /usr/lib/fledge
• If FLEDGE_ROOT env var is set and no -D options are set, the header files and libraries paths are pulled from the ones under the FLEDGE_ROOT directory. Please note that you must first run 'make' in the FLEDGE_ROOT directory.

You may also pass one or more of the following options to cmake to override this default behaviour:

• FLEDGE_SRC sets the path of a Fledge source tree
• FLEDGE_INCLUDE sets the path to Fledge header files
• FLEDGE_LIB sets the path to Fledge libraries
• FLEDGE_INSTALL sets the installation path of Random plugin

NOTE:

• The FLEDGE_INCLUDE option should point to a location where all the Fledge header files have been installed in a single directory.
• The FLEDGE_LIB option should point to a location where all the Fledge libraries have been installed in a single directory.
• 'make install' target is defined only when FLEDGE_INSTALL is set

Examples:

• no options

  $ cmake ..

• no options and FLEDGE_ROOT set

  $ export FLEDGE_ROOT=/some_fledge_setup

  $ cmake ..

• set FLEDGE_SRC

  $ cmake -DFLEDGE_SRC=/home/source/develop/Fledge ..

• set FLEDGE_INCLUDE

  $ cmake -DFLEDGE_INCLUDE=/dev-package/include ..

• set FLEDGE_LIB

  $ cmake -DFLEDGE_LIB=/home/dev/package/lib ..

• set FLEDGE_INSTALL

  $ cmake -DFLEDGE_INSTALL=/home/source/develop/Fledge ..

  $ cmake -DFLEDGE_INSTALL=/usr/local/fledge ..

Using the plugin

As described in the Fledge documentation, you can use the plugin by adding a service from a terminal, or from the web API.

1 - Add the service from a terminal:

$ curl -sX POST http://localhost:8081/fledge/service -d '{"name":"iec104_name","type":"south","plugin":"iec104","enabled":true}'

Or

2. Add the service from the web API:

• On the web API, go to the South tab
• Click on "Add +"
• Select iec104 and give it a name, then click on "Next"
• Change the default settings to your settings, then click on "Next"
• Let the "Enabled" option checked, then click on "Done"
