The virtual device service simulates different kinds of devices to generate events and readings to the core data micro service, and users send commands and get responses through the command and control micro service. These features of the virtual device services are useful when executing functional or performance tests without having any real devices.
Users can refer to the document to learn how to use this device service.
Currently, the NATS Messaging capability (NATS MessageBus) is opt-in at build time. This means that the published Docker image and Snaps do not include the NATS messaging capability.
The following make commands will build the local binary or local Docker image with NATS messaging capability included.
make build-nats
make docker-natsThe locally built Docker image can then be used in place of the published Docker image in your compose file.
See Compose Builder nat-bus option to generate compose file for NATS and local dev images.
