IoT Websocket Server

This component is used to support actuations over websocket protocol. It is an alternative for mqtt protocol.

Server listens on determined port. It uses 'echo-protocol' for receiving and sending requests.

Websocket client also has to use 'echo-protocol'. After the establishment of connection client has to send initial json object message:

Key	Description
type	type of message, always "device" for clients
deviceId	identifier of your device in iotkit database
deviceToken	token of device which is received after activation

Example json message:

{
    "type": "device",
    "deviceId": <deviceId>,
    "deviceToken": "eyJ0eXA....asdfwefadA"
}

Basic response codes:

Code	Description
401	"Invalid device token" or "Wrong message format"
500	Internal server error
200	Subscribed to ws server
1024	Received actuation message

Example of actuations message:

{
    "code":1024,
    "content": {
        "type":"command",
        "transport":"ws",
        "content": {
            "accountId":"c4715841-bb1e-4c87-ad78-2376fe596a11",
            "deviceId":"example001",
            "gatewayId":"example001",
            "componentId":"1e447b10-9afd-4221-b4d8-7bc5c5bb6c3f",
            "command":"LED.v1.0","params":[{"name":"LED","value":"1"}]
        }
    }
}
