OMA Next Generation Services Interface 10

The ngsi node type implements an interface to FIWARE context brokers following the NGSI 10 RESTful HTTP API.

This implementation if currently limited to the updateContext operation. Therefore only publishing updates is supported. Subscribtion or polling of events is planned for later versions. It's using libcurl and libjansson to communicate with the context broker over JSON.

Configuration

Every ngsi node supports the following special settings:

`endpoint` (string: URL)

`ssl_verify` (boolean)

`timeout` (float: seconds)

`structure` ("flat" | "children")

flat:
children:

`mapping` (array of strings)

Format for structure = flat: "entityId(entityType).attributeName(attributeType)"

Format for structure = children: "parentId(entityType).value(attributeType)"
