Create Alarm Node

*Since TB Version 2.0*

This Node tries to load latest Alarm with configured Alarm Type for Message Originator. If Uncleared Alarm exist, then this Alarm will be updated, otherwise a new Alarm will be created.

Node Configuration:

Alarm Details Builder script
Alarm Type - any string that represents Alarm Type
Alarm Severity - {CRITICAL | MAJOR | MINOR | WARNING | INDETERMINATE}
is Propagate - whether Alarm should be propagated to all parent related entities.

Note: Since TB Version 2.3.0 the rule node has the ability to:

read alarm config from message:
get alarm type using pattern with fields from message metadata:

Note: Since TB Version 2.4.3 the rule node has the ability to:

filter propagation to parent entities by relation types:

Alarm Details Builder script used for generating Alarm Details JsonNode. It is useful for storing additional parameters inside Alarm. For example you can save attribute name/value pair from Original Message payload or Metadata.

Alarm Details Builder script should return details object.

Message payload can be accessed via msg property. For example msg.temperature
Message metadata can be accessed via metadata property. For example metadata.customerName
Message type can be accessed via msgType property. For example msgType

Optional: previous Alarm Details can be accessed via metadata.prevAlarmDetails. If previous Alarm does not exist, this field will not be present in Metadata. Note that metadata.prevAlarmDetails is a raw String field and it needs to be converted into object using this construction:

var details = {};
if (metadata.prevAlarmDetails) {
    details = JSON.parse(metadata.prevAlarmDetails);
}

Alarm Details Builder script function can be verified using Test JavaScript function.

Example of Details Builder Function

This function takes count property from previous Alarm and increment it. Also put temperature attribute from inbound Message payload into Alarm details.

var details = {temperature: msg.temperature, count: 1};

if (metadata.prevAlarmDetails) {
    var prevDetails = JSON.parse(metadata.prevAlarmDetails);
    if(prevDetails.count) {
        details.count = prevDetails.count + 1;
    }
}

return details;

Alarm created/updated with those properties:

Alarm details - object returned from Alarm Details Builder script
Alarm status - if new alarm -> ACTIVE_UNACK. If existing Alarm -> does not changed
Severity - value from Node Configuration
Propagation - value from Node Configuration
Alarm type - value from Node Configuration
Alarm start time - if new alarm -> current system time. If existing Alarm -> does not changed
Alarm end time - current system time

Outbound message will have the following structure:

Message Type - ALARM
Originator - the same originator from inbound Message
Payload - JSON representation of new Alarm that was created/updated
Metadata - all fields from original Message Metadata

After new Alarm created, Outbound message will contain additional property inside Metadata - isNewAlarm with true value. Message will be passed via Created chain.

After existing Alarm updated, Outbound message will contain additional property inside Metadata - isExistingAlarm with true value. Message will be passed via Updated chain.

Here is an example of Outbound Message payload

{
  "tenantId": {
    "entityType": "TENANT",
    "id": "22cd8888-5dac-11e8-bbab-ad47060c9bbb"

Create and Clear Alarms

Clear Alarm Node

*Since TB Version 2.0*

This Node loads the latest Alarm with configured Alarm Type for Message Originator and Clear the Alarm if it exist.

Node Configuration:

Alarm Details Builder script
Alarm Type - any string that represents Alarm Type

Note: Since TB Version 2.3.0 the rule node has the ability to get alarm type using pattern with fields from message metadata:

Alarm Details Builder script used for updating Alarm Details JsonNode. It is useful for storing additional parameters inside Alarm. For example you can save attribute name/value pair from Original Message payload or Metadata.

Alarm Details Builder script should return details object.

Message payload can be accessed via msg property. For example msg.temperature
Message metadata can be accessed via metadata property. For example metadata.customerName
Message type can be accessed via msgType property. For example msgType
Current Alarm Details can be accessed via metadata.prevAlarmDetails.

Note that metadata.prevAlarmDetails is a raw String field and it needs to be converted into object using this construction:

var details = {};
if (metadata.prevAlarmDetails) {
    details = JSON.parse(metadata.prevAlarmDetails);
}

Alarm Details Builder script function can be verified using Test JavaScript function.

Example of Details Builder Function

This function takes count property from previous Alarm and increment it. Also put temperature attribute from inbound Message payload into Alarm details.

var details = {temperature: msg.temperature, count: 1};

if (metadata.prevAlarmDetails) {
    var prevDetails = JSON.parse(metadata.prevAlarmDetails);
    if(prevDetails.count) {
        details.count = prevDetails.count + 1;
    }
}

return details;

This Node updates Current Alarm:

change alarm status to CLEARED_ACK if it was already acknowledged, otherwise to CLEARED_UNACK
set clear time to current system time
update Alarm details with new object returned from Alarm Details Builder script

In case when Alarm does not exist or it is already Cleared Alarm, original Message will be passed to the next nodes via False chain.

Otherwise new Message will be passed via Cleared chain.

Outbound message will have the following structure:

Message Type - ALARM
Originator - the same originator from inbound Message
Payload - JSON representation of Alarm that was cleared
Metadata - all fields from original Message Metadata. Also additional property inside Metadata will be added -> isClearedAlarm with true value.

Here is an example of Outbound Message payload

{

*Since TB Version 2.1*

Delays incoming messages for configurable period.

Configuration:

Period in seconds - specifies the value of the period during which incoming message should be suspended
Maximum pending messages - specifies the amount of maximum allowed pending messages (queue of suspended messages)

When delay period for particular incoming message will be reached it will be removed from pending queue and routed to the next nodes via Success chain.

Each next message will be routed via Failure chain if the maximum pending messages limit will be reached.

Generator Node

*Since TB Version 2.0*

Generates Messages with configurable period. JavaScript function is used for message generation.

Node Configuration:

Message generation frequency in seconds
Message originator
JavaScript function that will generate the actual message.

JavaScript function receive 3 input parameters:

prevMsg - is a previously generated Message payload.
prevMetadata - is a previously generated Message metadata.
prevMsgType - is a previously generated Message type.

Script should return the following structure:

{   
    msg: new payload,
    metadata: new metadata,
    msgType: new msgType 
}

All fields in resulting object are optional and will be taken from previously generated Message if not specified.

Outbound Message from this Node will be new Message that was constructed using configured JavaScript function.

JavaScript generator function can be verified using Test JavaScript function.

This node can be used for Rule Chain debugging purposes.

Log Node

*Since TB Version 2.0*

You can see the real life example, where this node is used, in the next tutorial:

Reply to RPC Calls

RPC Call Reply Node

*Since TB Version 2.0*

Sends response to the RPC Call originator. All incoming RPC requests are passed through Rule Chain as Messages. Also all RPC requests have request ID field. It is used for mapping requests and responses. Message Originator must be a Device entity because RPC response is initiated to the Message Originator.

Node configuration has special request ID field mapping. If the mapping is not specified, requestId metadata field is used by default.

RPC request can be received via different transports:

MQTT
HTTP
CoAP

Message payload example:

{
  "method": "setGpio",
  "params": {
    "pin": "23",
    "value": 1
  }
}

Message will be routed via Failure chain in the following cases:

Inbound Message originator is not a Device entity
Request id is not present in the Message metadata
Inbound Message payload is empty

For more details how RPC works in the IoT Hub, please read RPC capabilities Article.

You can see the real life example, where this node is used, in the next tutorial:

Reply to RPC Calls

RPC Call Request Node

*Since TB Version 2.0*

Sends RPC requests to the Device and routing response to the next Rule nodes. Message Originator must be a Device entity as RPC request can be initiated only to device.

Node configuration has Timeout field used to specify timeout waiting for response from device.

Message payload must have correct format for RPC request. It must contains method and params fields. Example:

{
  "method": "setGpio",
  "params": {
    "pin": "23",
    "value": 1
  }
}

If Message Payload contains requestId field, its value used to identify RPC request to the Device. Otherwise random requestId will be generated.

Outbound Message will have same originator and metadata as in inbound Message. Response from the Device will be added into Message payload.

Message will be routed via Failure chain in the following cases:

Inbound Message originator is not a Device entity
Inbound Message has missed method or params fields
If Node will not receive a response during configured timeout

Otherwise Message will be routed via Success chain.

For more details how RPC works in the IoT Hub, please read RPC capabilities article.

Save Attributes Node

*Since TB Version 2.0*

Stores attributes from incoming Message payload to the database and associate them to the Entity, that is identified by the Message Originator. Configured scope is used to identify attributes scope.

Supported scope types:

Client attributes
Shared attributes
Server attributes

Expects messages with POST_ATTRIBUTES_REQUEST message type. If message Type is not POST_ATTRIBUTES_REQUEST, Message will be routed via Failure chain.

When attributes are uploaded over existing API (HTTP / MQTT / CoAP / etc.) Message with correct payload and type will be passed into Input node of the Root Rule Chain.

In cases when it is required to trigger attributes saving inside Rule Chain, the Rule Chain should be configured to transform Message payload to the expected format and set message type to POST_ATTRIBUTES_REQUEST. It could be done using Script Transformation Node.

Expected Message Payload example:

{
  "firmware_version": "1.0.1",
  "serial_number": "SN-001"
}

After successful attributes saving, original Message will be passed to the next nodes via Success chain, otherwise Failure chain is used.

Save Timeseries Node

*Since TB Version 2.0*

Stores Timeseries data from incoming Message payload to the database and associate them to the Entity, that is identified by the Message Originator. Configured TTL seconds is used for timeseries data expiration. 0 value means that data will never expire.

Expects messages with POST_TELEMETRY_REQUEST message type. If message Type is not POST_TELEMETRY_REQUEST, Message will be routed via Failure chain.

When timeseries data is published over existing API (HTTP / MQTT / CoAP / etc.) Message with correct payload and type will be passed into Input node of the Root Rule Chain.

In cases when it is required to trigger timeseries data saving inside Rule Chain, the Rule Chain should be configured to transform Message payload
to the expected format and set message type to POST_TELEMETRY_REQUEST. It could be done using Script Transformation Node.

Message Metadata must contain ts field. This field identifies timestamp in milliseconds of published telemetry.

Also, if Message Metadata contains TTL field, its value is used for timeseries data expiration, otherwise TTL from Node Configuration is used.

Expected Message Payload example:

{  
  "values": {
    "key1": "value1",
    "key2": "value2"
  }
}

After successful timeseries data saving, original Message will be passed to the next nodes via Success chain, otherwise Failure chain is used.

GPS Geofencing Events Node

*Since TB Version 2.3.1*

Produces incoming messages by GPS based parameters. Extracts latitude and longitude from incoming message data or metadata and returns different events based on configuration parameters (geo fence).

The rule node fetches perimeter information from message metadata by default. If Fetch perimeter information from message metadata is unchecked, additional information should be configured.

Fetch perimeter information from message metadata

There are two options of area definition based on the perimeter type:

Polygon

Metadata of the incoming message must include key with name perimeter and following data structure:

[[lat1,lon1],[lat2,lon2], ... ,[latN,lonN]]

Circle

"centerLatitude": "value1", "centerLongitude": "value2", "range": "value3"

All values for these keys are in double-precision floating-point data type.

The "rangeUnit" key requires specific value from a list of METER, KILOMETER, FOOT, MILE, NAUTICAL_MILE (capital letters obligatory).

Fetch perimeter information from node configuration

There are two options of area definition based on the perimeter type:

Event Types

There are 4 types of events managed by geofencing rule node:

Entered — is reporting whenever latitude and longitude from the incoming message to belong the required perimeter area for the first time;
Left — is reporting whenever latitude and longitude from the incoming message not belong the required perimeter area for the first time;
Inside and Outside events are used to report current status.

Administrator can configure duration time threshold for reporting inside or outside event. For example, whenever minimal inside time is set to 1 minute the message originator is considered as being inside the perimeter 60 seconds after entering the area. Minimal outside time defines whenever message originator is considered as out of the perimeter as well.

Failure chain will to be used when:

incoming message has no configured latitude or longitude key in data or metadata.
missing perimeter definition;
