Alicloud Internet of things platform custom Topic script parsing function demonstration

Summary

Before, all the customized topics on the Internet of things platform were used for direct transmission of messages, instead of data script analysis similar to the model of things. The latest self defined Topic script parsing function of the platform. The device reports data through the self-defined Topic with the parsing mark (? sn=default). After receiving the data, the Internet of things platform calls the data parsing script submitted by you on the console, converts the self-defined format data into a JSON structure, and then flows it to the subsequent business system. This paper mainly demonstrates the realization of this function.

Step By Step

1. Create products and devices

2. Add script

Sample script

3. The device simulates uplink data through a custom Topic

4. Uplink message view

5. Precautions

1. When creating a user-defined Topic on the Internet of things platform, it is defined as a normal Topic without adding the parsing tag;
2. Only analyze the data reported by the device in the cloud, not the downlink data in the cloud;
3. Only the payloads of the reported data are parsed, and the parsed payloads are returned;
4. Before and after analysis, the Topic of data remains unchanged. For example, the data sent by the device to / ${productKey}/${deviceName}/user/update is still in the Topic after parsing.
