Thingstream Click

Thingstream Click demo application is developed using the NECTO Studio, ensuring compatibility with mikroSDK's open-source libraries and tools. Designed for plug-and-play implementation and testing, the demo is fully compatible with all development, starter, and mikromedia boards featuring a mikroBUS™ socket.

Click Library

• Author : MikroE Team
• Date : Jun 2020.
• Type : UART type

Software Support

Example Description

This example reads and processes data from Thingstream Clicks.

Example Libraries

• MikroSDK.Board
• MikroSDK.Log
• Click.Thingstream

Example Key Functions

• thingstream_cfg_setup Config Object Initialization function.

void thingstream_cfg_setup ( thingstream_cfg_t *cfg ); 

• thingstream_init Initialization function.

err_t thingstream_init ( thingstream_t *ctx, thingstream_cfg_t *cfg );

• thingstream_reset_pin_state Set RST pin state.

void thingstream_reset_pin_state ( thingstream_t *ctx, uint8_t state );

• thingstream_send_command Send command.

void thingstream_send_command ( thingstream_t *ctx, char *command );

• thingstream_generic_parser Generic parser function.

thingstream_error_t thingstream_generic_parser ( char *rsp,  uint8_t command, uint8_t element, char *parser_buf );

Application Init

Initializes driver and power module.

void application_init ( void )
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;
    thingstream_cfg_t cfg;

    /** 
     * Logger initialization.
     * Default baud rate: 115200
     * Default log level: LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG
     * @note If USB_UART_RX and USB_UART_TX 
     * are defined as HAL_PIN_NC, you will 
     * need to define them manually for log to work. 
     * See @b LOG_MAP_USB_UART macro definition for detailed explanation.
     */
    LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
    log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
    log_info( &logger, "---- Application Init ----" );

    // Click initialization.
    thingstream_cfg_setup( &cfg );
    THINGSTREAM_MAP_MIKROBUS( cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
    thingstream_init( &thingstream, &cfg );

    thingstream_module_power( &thingstream, true );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );

    log_printf( &logger, " --->>> INFO.. \r\n" );
    thingstream_send_command( &thingstream, THINGSTREAM_INFO );
    thingstream_process( );
    log_printf( &logger, "%s", current_parser_buf );
        
    log_printf( &logger, " --->>> CREATE.. \r\n" );
    thingstream_send_command( &thingstream, THINGSTREAM_CREATE );
    thingstream_process( );
    log_printf( &logger, "%s", current_parser_buf );

    log_printf( &logger, " --->>> CONNECT.. \r\n" );
    thingstream_send_command( &thingstream, THINGSTREAM_CONNECT );
    thingstream_process( );
    log_printf( &logger, "%s", current_parser_buf );

    log_printf( &logger, " --->>> GPS POWER.. \r\n" );
    thingstream_send_command( &thingstream, THINGSTREAM_GPS_PWR );
    thingstream_process( );
    log_printf( &logger, "%s", current_parser_buf );

    log_printf( &logger, " --->>> SUBSCRIBE.. \r\n" );
    thingstream_send_command( &thingstream, THINGSTREAM_SUBSCRIBE );
    thingstream_process( );
    log_printf( &logger, "%s", current_parser_buf );

    log_printf( &logger, " --->>> PUBLISH.. \r\n" );
    thingstream_send_command( &thingstream, THINGSTREAM_PUBLISH );
    thingstream_process( );
    log_printf( &logger, "%s", current_parser_buf );

    log_printf( &logger, " --->>> APP INIT <<<--- \r\n" );
}

Application Task

Reads the received data and parses it.

void application_task ( void )
{
    thingstream_send_command( &thingstream, THINGSTREAM_GPS_INFO );  
    thingstream_process( );
    parser_application( current_parser_buf );
}

Note

The Click board needs to be registered with a redemption code to a Thingstream Domain. For more information please refer to the Thingstream Click user manual available on the product page.

Application Output

This Click board can be interfaced and monitored in two ways:

• Application Output - Use the "Application Output" window in Debug mode for real-time data monitoring. Set it up properly by following this tutorial.
• UART Terminal - Monitor data via the UART Terminal using a USB to UART converter. For detailed instructions, check out this tutorial.

Additional Notes and Information

The complete application code and a ready-to-use project are available through the NECTO Studio Package Manager for direct installation in the NECTO Studio. The application code can also be found on the MIKROE GitHub account.
