CoRE RD Endpoint

Library for using RIOT as CoRE Resource Directory endpoint. More...

Detailed Description

Library for using RIOT as CoRE Resource Directory endpoint.

This module implements a CoRE Resource Directory endpoint library, that allows RIOT nodes to register themselves with resource directories. It implements the standard endpoint functionality as defined in draft-ietf-core-resource-directory-15.

Design Decisions

• all operations provided by this module are fully synchronous, meaning that the functions will block until an operation is successful or will time out
• the implementation limits the endpoint to be registered with a single RD at any point in time

Return values and error codes used by this module.

Enumerator
CORD_EP_OK	everything went as expected
CORD_EP_TIMEOUT	no response from the network
CORD_EP_ERR	internal error or invalid reply
CORD_EP_NORD	not connected to an RD
CORD_EP_OVERFLOW	internal buffers can not handle input

Function Documentation

cord_ep_discover_regif()

int cord_ep_discover_regif	(	const sock_udp_ep_t *	remote,
		char *	regif,
		size_t	maxlen
	)

Discover the registration interface resource of a RD.

Parameters

[in]	remote	remote endpoint of the target RD
[out]	regif	the registration interface is written to this buffer
[in]	maxlen	size of regif

Returns

CORD_EP_OK on success

CORD_EP_TIMEOUT if the discovery request times out

CORD_EP_NORD if addressed endpoint is not a RD

CORD_EP_ERR on any other internal error

cord_ep_register()

int cord_ep_register	(	const sock_udp_ep_t *	remote,
		const char *	regif
	)

Initiate the node registration by sending an empty push.

• if registration fails (e.g. timeout), we are not associated with any RD anymore (even if we have been before we called cord_ep_register)

Note

In case a multicast address is given, the regif parameter MUST be NULL. The first RD responding to the request will be chosen and all replies from other RD servers are ignored.

Parameters

[in]	remote	remote endpoint of the target RD
[in]	regif	registration interface resource of the RD, it will be discovered automatically when set to NULL

Returns

CORD_EP_OK on success

CORD_EP_TIMEOUT on registration timeout

CORD_EP_NORD if addressed endpoint is not a RD

CORD_EP_OVERFLOW if regif does not fit into internal buffer

CORD_EP_ERR on any other internal error

cord_ep_remove()

int cord_ep_remove

(

void

)

Unregister from a given RD server.

Returns

CORD_EP_OK on success

CORD_EP_TIMEOUT if the remove request times out

CORD_EP_ERR on any other internal error

cord_ep_update()

int cord_ep_update

(

void

)

Update our current entry at the RD.

Returns

CORD_EP_OK on success

CORD_EP_TIMEOUT if the update request times out

CORD_EP_ERR on any other internal error
