Hi Thomas,

 

thanks for the feedback.

PLC4X has such an API (its called subscriptions) but not every PLC supports it, thus we in our company we mostly use a tool called the “scraper” which emulates that (we have PLCs in the field which are > 20 years old…).

 

But we could e.g. add an OPC UA Example (which supports Subscriptions) in the next days.

@Matthias Strljic interested in doing it? 😝

 

And regarding your other questions:

Yes, of course you can add it and I can prepare a PR for you.

On the other hand I also would like to add it to the “integrations” section for PLC4X but for that I need a Release of ditto-clients, so hurry up : )

 

Best

Julian

Hi Julian.

 

That’s awesome, thanks for sharing.

The integration of both PLC4X and Ditto Java client looks straight forward.

 

Does PLC4X also provide a “noticfication” API style?

So that one does not have to poll each 100ms, but register for changes and directly change the Ditto twin as a result.

I’m not at all familiar with PLC programming, so excuse me if that is a stupid question J

 

Could we add this example to the “ditto-examples” repo?

https://github.com/eclipse/ditto-examples

 

That way it would – from a Ditto side – be more prominent and cross-reference to the PLC4X project.

If yes, a PullRequest would be awesome J

 

 

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

Hi folks,

 

I cross post this on both list, as I think these two projects are a perfect fit together.

I made a small example outlining how one could create a digital twin for a (real) PLC using Eclipse Ditto and Apache PLC4X.

Please feel free to ask questions or discuss your ideaas around that : )
