MindConnect-NodeJS

Introduction

This is a nodejs library which can be used as a starting point for custom agent implementation in nodejs. The library also contains useful tooling like command line support, which enables the user to easily import (historical) timeseries data, files and events to Insights Hub. There is also a Typescript/JavaScript SDK and a development proxy which can be used to kickstart your development.

Prerequisites

You will need Node.js which can be acquired from nodejs.org. The library can be installed everywhere where nodejs is running ( Windows, Linux, MacOS, Raspbian...)

Getting and Installing the MindConnect-NodeJS Library

There are several ways to install the library. The most common one is via npm registry:

Installing the library via npm

# install the latest stable library from the npm registry

As an alternative you can also clone the GitHub repository and install the file from the local file.
