[hono-dev] Eclipse Hono 1.3.0-M2 Milestone
|
Dear Hono community,
today we have created version 1.3.0 milestone 2 of the Eclipse Hono [1]
project.
Hono aims at providing uniform service interfaces for connecting large
numbers of IoT devices to a (cloud) back end. It specifically supports
scalable and secure data ingestion (telemetry data & events) and also
supports sending messages to devices.
Here are the release notes for the changes and improvements since 1.2.2
which are contained in this milestone:
New Features
* The LoraWAN protocol adapter has been extended with support for the
ChirpStack provider.
* Hono's integration tests can now be run with a Jaeger back end in
order to collect tracing information.
* The AMQP 1.0 event message based Connection Event producer now sets a
TTL on the event messages it produces. The TTL is the max TTL
configured at the tenant level.
Fixes & Enhancements
* An admin guide for the CoAP adapter has been added.
* The Prometheus based resource limits checker now supports configuring
a query timeout.
Please refer to Resource Limits Checker Configuration for additional
information.
* When sending a command message to a device, the AMQP adapter now waits
for a configurable period of time (default is 1 second) for the
acknowledgement from the device.
If none is received, the downstream command sender gets back a
`released` outcome.
Please refer to the `sendMessageToDeviceTimeout` property description
in the AMQP Adapter admin guide for additional information.
* The client for storing device connection information to a data grid
now supports configuring the name of the cache to store the data in.
* When the connection to a device is closed or lost, a protocol adapter
instance will now stop listening for commands targeted at the device.
* The AMQP adapter before accepting any connections checks if the
connection limit is exceeded or not and if the adapter is enabled or
not. These checks are currently done inside the
`AmqpAdapterSaslAuthenticatorFactory`. Thereby, if any of these checks
failed, the AMQP adapter reported authentication failure instead of
the actual reason. This has been fixed now.
* The AMQP adapter did not consider the `HONO_CONNECTIONEVENTS_PRODUCER`
configuration variable to set a Connection Event producer. This has
been fixed.
* The *logging* Connection Event producer now supports configuring the
level at which information should be logged. The producer type *none*
has been added to explicitly turn off connection event reporting
altogether.
Please refer to the *Common Configuration* admin guide for details.
* The packages `org.eclipse.hono.service.credentials`,
`org.eclipse.hono.service.management`,
`org.eclipse.hono.service.management.credentials`,
`org.eclipse.hono.service.management.device`,
`org.eclipse.hono.service.management.tenant`,
`org.eclipse.hono.service.registration` and
`org.eclipse.hono.service.tenant` have been moved from the *service
base* to the *device-registry-base* module.
* The Device Connection service did return a 500 error code if no *last
known gateway* could
be found for a device ID. This has been fixed so that the service now
returns a 404 in that case as specified by the Device Connection API.
* The cache based Device Connection service implementation now applies a
lifespan of 28 days when setting/updating cache entries containing
*last known gateway* information. This means no global expiration
configuration is needed anymore for the cache.
API Changes
* The `getRemoteContainer` method in
`org.eclipse.hono.client.HonoConnection` has been renamed to
`getRemoteContainerId`.
* The `getName` method in
`org.eclipse.hono.connection.ConnectionFactory` has been removed
and an additional `connect` method has been added.
* The *set command-handling protocol adapter instance* operation of the
*Device Connection* API has been extended to support an additional
parameter which can be used to indicate the maximum amount of time
that the given information is to be considered valid.
* The `hono-core` module no longer embeds any external classes by
default.
This includes the *OpenTracing API* and *Spring Crypto* classes. You
can still embed the classes, as in Hono versions 1.2.x and before, by
enabling the Maven profile `embed-dependencies` (e.g using the command
line switch `-Pembed-dependencies`). By default this profile is not
active.
* The `org.eclipse.hono.client.DeviceRegistration` interface's *get*
methods have been removed because the Device Registration API does not
define a corresponding operation.
Consequently, the C&C functionality of the Kerlink Lora provider which
relied on the *get* method has been removed.
Binary artifacts are available from the Eclipse Repository [4] and from
Maven Central [5].
However, the easiest and preferred way of using Hono is by
means of using the Helm chart that is available from the Eclipse IoT
Packages project. Installation instructions can be found in the Hono
Deployment Guide [6]. Plain Docker images are also available from Docker
Hub [7].
If you want to give Hono a try, please follow the Getting Started guide
on the project web site [8].
Please refer to the project page at Eclipse [9] for Hono's release plan.
