npm install sparkplug-b-payload

Usage

This library supports the Sparkplug Google Protocol Buffer Schemas for the following Sparkplug namespaces:

• spBv1.0
• spAv1.0 (deprecated)

Encoding a payload

Here is a code example of encoding a payload:

var sparkplug = require('sparkplug-payload').get("spBv1.0"),
    payload = {
        "timestamp" : new Date().getTime(),
        "metrics" : [
            {
                "name" : "intMetric",
                "value" : 1,
                "type" : "Int32"
            }
        ]
    },
    encoded = sparkplug.encodePayload(payload);

Decoding a payload

Here is a code example of decoding an encoded payload:

var decoded = sparkplug.decodePayload(encoded);
