I'm using Milo and its example server and client. I'm adding nodes to the server but I can't figure out how to add EuInformation
, i.e., unit and description. I thought about using the ExtensionObject
but since EuInformation
does not implement Serializable
I don't know how to pass it to the ExtensionObject
. I'd also like to know how I can get the namespace ID and URI on client side. So far I just set them statically as I have access to the classes.
I've implemeted the AddNodes on server side. I can add nodes, read nodes and write to nodes. Here's what I'm doing on client side:
// Should somehow get the namespace ID and namespace dynamically.
// Maybe by iterating through all nodes??
ExpandedNodeId parentNodeId = new ExpandedNodeId(
new nodeId(2,DatatypeNamespace.NODE_IDENTIFIER),
datatypeNamespace.NAMESPACE_URI, 0);
NodeId referenceTypeId = Identifiers.String;
// Define the new node.
ExpandedNodeId requestedNewNodeId = new ExpandedNodeId(new NodeId(2, "NewNode"),
DatatypeNamespace.NAMESPACE_URI, 0);
QualifiedName browseName = new QualifiedName(2, "NewNode");
// How to get this to the server??
EUInformation euinfo = new EUInformation(null,-1,LocalizedText.english("MyUnit"),
LocalizedText.english("My Description"));
ExpandedNodeId typeDef = new ExpandedNodeId(Identifiers.BaseVariableType,
DatatypeNamespace.NAMESPACE_URI, 0);
AddNodesItem newItem = new AddNodesItem(parentNodeId, referenceTypeId,
requestedNewNodeId,rowseName,NodeClass.VariableType, null, typeDef);
List<AddNodesItem> items = new ArrayList<AddNodesItem>();
items.add(newItem);
client.addNodes(items).get();
EDIT
With the help of Kevin Herron's answer I worked something out: I adjusted the write()
in my namespace class. I can now modify the display name and description of the node with the values of the EUInformation. Here's my write()
method:
@Override
public void write(WriteContext context, List<WriteValue> writeValues) {
List<StatusCode> results = Lists.newArrayListWithCapacity(writeValues.size());
for (WriteValue writeValue : writeValues) {
ServerNode node = server.getNodeMap().get(writeValue.getNodeId());
if (node != null) {
// Get the type of the variant thats about to be written to the node
NodeId variantType = writeValue.getValue().getValue().getDataType().get();
if (variantType.equals(Identifiers.Structure)) {
ExtensionObject o = (ExtensionObject) writeValue.getValue().getValue().getValue();
if (o.getEncodingTypeId().equals(Identifiers.EUInformation_Encoding_DefaultBinary)) {
EUInformation euInformation = (EUInformation) o.decode();
node.setDescription(euInformation.getDescription());
node.setDisplayName(euInformation.getDisplayName());
System.out.println("Wrote EUInformation " + euInformation);
results.add(StatusCode.GOOD);
context.complete(results);
return;
}
}
try {
node.writeAttribute(new AttributeContext(context), writeValue.getAttributeId(),
writeValue.getValue(), writeValue.getIndexRange());
results.add(StatusCode.GOOD);
System.out.println(String.format("Wrote value %s to %s attribute of %s",
writeValue.getValue().getValue(),
AttributeId.from(writeValue.getAttributeId()).map(Object::toString).orElse("unknown"),
node.getNodeId()));
} catch (UaException e) {
System.out.println(String.format("Unable to write %s", writeValue.getValue()));
results.add(e.getStatusCode());
}
} else {
results.add(new StatusCode(StatusCodes.Bad_NodeIdUnknown));
}
}
context.complete(results);
}
