node-red-contrib-iot-virtual-device

This module provides a set of nodes in Node-RED to rapidly implement simulated IoT device behavior and use it to run many device instances.

Read here how to deploy a sample application to IBM Bluemix

Install

Run the following command in your Node-RED user directory (typically ~/.node-red):

npm install node-red-contrib-iot-virtual-device

Nodes

- **_Device Schema_** (configuration node) to define the device type - **_Start Device_** to create a new instance of a device type - **_Generate Event_** to send events to the IoT platform - **_Set Properties_** to set properties of a device instance - **_Device Function_** to write customized behavior using a specific device instance properties - **_Device Listener_** to react on changes in device instances state (e.g. property change)
