FabFire Adapter

The FabFire adapter translates MQTT messages from the FabReader hardware to API calls to bffhd.

Installation

With python3-venv

Easy, native installation without overhead is possible with python3 virtual environment:

cd /opt/fabinfra/adapters/
git clone https://gitlab.com/fabinfra/fabaccess/fabfire_adapter.git --recursive
cd fabfire_adapter/
python3 -m venv env
. env/bin/activate
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

With the Dockerfile and Podman

You can also install the fabfire adapter using Docker or Podman:

podman build -f Dockerfile -t fabinfra/fabfire_adapter

#cleanup if required:
podman system prune

Configuration

Edit the config file example provided in config/config.toml

Set hostname and port for your MQTT Broker and bffhd instance

Add your desired readers to the [readers] section. Every reader needs a unique subsection name:

[readers]
 [readers.REPLACEME]
 id = "111"
 machine = "urn:fabaccess:resource:Testmachine"

 [readers.REPLACEMETOO]
 id = "222"
 machine = "urn:fabaccess:resource:Another"

Running

Run the adapter:
```
python3 main.py
```

or with Podman:

podman run localhost/fabinfra/fabfire_adapter:latest

The adapter has to remain running for the readers to work
