REDIS Example
Using the redis_adapter.py as the DataSource, telemetry can be received through multiple Redis channels and inserted into the full data frame.
The redis_example.ini uses a very basic setup:
- meta : redis_example_CONFIG.json
- parser : onair/data_handling/redis_adapter.py
- plugins : one of each type, all of them 'generic' that do nothing
The telemetry file defines the subscribed channels, data frame and subsystems.
- subscriptions : defines channel names where telemetry will be received
- order : designation of where each 'channel.telemetry_item' is to be put in full data frame (the data header)
- subsystems : data for each specific telemetry item (descriptions only for redis example)
The Redis adapter expects any published telemetry on a channel to include:
- time
- every telemetry_item as described under "order" as 'channel.telemetry_item'
All messages sent must be json format (key to value) and will warn when it is not then discard the message (outputting what was received first). Keys should match the required telemetry_item names with the addition of "time." Values should be floats.
If not already running, start a Redis server on 'localhost', port:6379 (typical defaults)
redis-server
Start up OnAIR with the redis_example.ini file:
python driver.py onair/config/redis_example.ini
You should see:
Redis Adapter ignoring file
---- Redis adapter connecting to server...
---- ... connected!
---- Subscribing to channel: state_0
---- Subscribing to channel: state_1
---- Subscribing to channel: state_2
---- Redis adapter: channel 'state_0' received message type: subscribe.
---- Redis adapter: channel 'state_1' received message type: subscribe.
---- Redis adapter: channel 'state_2' received message type: subscribe.

In another process run the experimental publisher:
python redis-experiment-publisher.py
This will send telemetry every 2 seconds, one channel at random until all 3 channels have recieved data then repeat for a total of 9 times (all of which can be changed in the file). Its output should be similar to this:
Published data to state_0, [0, 0.1, 0.2]
Published data to state_1, [1, 1.1, 1.2]
Published data to state_2, [2, 2.1, 2.2]
Completed 1 loops
Published data to state_2, [3, 3.1, 3.2]
Published data to state_1, [4, 4.1, 4.2]
And OnAir should begin receiving data similarly to this:
