Deployment
Follow this guide to deploy and run the service.
Deploy EdgeX and ONVIF Device Camera Microservice
-
Navigate to the EdgeX
compose-builder
directory:cd edgex-compose/compose-builder/
-
Checkout the latest release (v3.1):
git checkout v3.1
-
Run Edgex with the ONVIF microservice in secure or non-secure mode.
Non-secure mode
make run no-secty ds-onvif-camera
Secure mode
Note
Recommended for secure and production level deployments.
make run ds-onvif-camera
Token Generation (secure mode only)
Note
Need to wait for sometime for the services to be fully up before executing the next set of commands. Securely store Consul ACL token and the JWT token generated which are needed to map credentials and execute apis. It is not recommended to store these secrets in cleartext in your machine.
Note
The JWT token expires after 119 minutes, and you will need to generate a new one.
Note
Consul will be deprecated in EdgeX 4.0, and core-keeper will become the new registry and configuration provider.
Generate the Consul ACL Token. Use the token generated anywhere you see
<consul-token>
in the documentation.Example output:make get-consul-acl-token
12345678-abcd-1234-abcd-123456789abc
Generate the JWT Token. Use the token generated anywhere you see
<jwt-token>
in the documentation.Example output:make get-token

Note
Secrets such as passwords, certificates, tokens and more in Edgex are stored in a secret store which is implemented using Vault a product of Hashicorp. Vault supports security features allowing for the issuing of consul tokens. JWT token is required for the API Gateway which is a trust boundry for Edgex services. It allows for external clients to be verified when issuing REST requests to the microservices. For more info refer Secure Consul, API Gateway and Edgex Security.
Note
Go version 1.20+ is required to run natively. See here for more information.
-
Navigate to the EdgeX
compose-builder
directory:cd edgex-compose/compose-builder/
-
Checkout the latest release (v3.1):
git checkout v3.1
-
Run EdgeX:
make run no-secty
-
Navigate out of the
edgex-compose
directory to thedevice-onvif-camera
directory:cd device-onvif-camera
-
Checkout the latest release (v3.1):
git checkout v3.1
-
Run the service
make run
[Optional] Run with NATS
make run-nats
Verify Service and Device Profiles
-
Check the status of the container:
docker ps
The status column will indicate if the container is running, and how long it has been up.
Example output:
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES 33f9c5ecb70e nexus3.edgexfoundry.org:10004/device-onvif-camera:latest "/device-onvif-camer…" 7 weeks ago Up 48 minutes 127.0.0.1:59985->59985/tcp edgex-device-onvif-camera
-
Check whether the device service is added to EdgeX:
Note
If running in secure mode all the api executions need the JWT token generated previously. E.g.
curl --location --request GET 'http://localhost:59881/api/v3/deviceservice/name/device-onvif-camera' \ --header 'Authorization: Bearer <jwt-token>' \ --data-raw ''
Good response:curl -s http://localhost:59881/api/v3/deviceservice/name/device-onvif-camera | jq .
Bad response:{ "apiVersion" : "v3", "statusCode": 200, "service": { "created": 1657227634593, "modified": 1657291447649, "id": "e1883aa7-f440-447f-ad4d-effa2aeb0ade", "name": "device-onvif-camera", "baseAddress": "http://edgex-device-onvif-camera:59984", "adminState": "UNLOCKED" } }
{ "apiVersion" : "v3", "message": "fail to query device service by name device-onvif-camer", "statusCode": 404 }
-
Check whether the device profile is added:
Good response:curl -s http://localhost:59881/api/v3/deviceprofile/name/onvif-camera | jq -r '"profileName: " + '.profile.name' + "\nstatusCode: " + (.statusCode|tostring)'
Bad response:profileName: onvif-camera statusCode: 200
profileName: statusCode: 404
Note
jq -r
is used to reduce the size of the displayed response. The entire device profile with all resources can be seen by removing -r '"profileName: " + '.profile.name' + "\nstatusCode: " + (.statusCode|tostring)', and replacing it with '.'
Note
Secure mode login to Edgex UI requires the JWT token generated in the above step
Entering the JWT token
-
Visit http://localhost:4000 to go to the dashboard for EdgeX Console GUI:
Figure 1: EdgeX Console Dashboard
-
To see Device Services, Devices, or Device Profiles, click on their respective tab:
Figure 2: EdgeX Console Device Service List
Figure 3: EdgeX Console Device List
Figure 4: EdgeX Console Device Profile List
Additionally, ensure that the service config has been deployed and that Consul is reachable.
Note
If running in secure mode this command needs the Consul ACL token generated previously.
curl -H "X-Consul-Token:<consul-token>" -X GET "http://localhost:8500/v1/kv/edgex/v3/device-onvif-camera?keys=true"
Example output:
["edgex/v3/device-onvif-camera/AppCustom/BaseNotificationURL", "edgex/v3/device-onvif-camera/AppCustom/CheckStatusInterval",
