Core module to be used in ioBroker adapters. Acts as the bridge to js-controller.
Core module to be used in ioBroker adapters. Acts as the bridge to js-controller.
This replaces the utils.js included in the ioBroker template adapter.
npm i @iobroker/adapter-coreconst utils = require(__dirname + "/lib/utils");
const utils = require("@iobroker/adapter-core");
// old style
const adapter = utils.adapter(/* options */);
// new style (classes). See https://github.com/ioBroker/ioBroker.template/ for a more detailed usage
class MyAdapter extends utils.Adapter {...}
Compared to the old utils.js, some utility methods were added.
getAbsoluteDefaultDataDirconst dataDir = utils.getAbsoluteDefaultDataDir();
This returns the absolute path of the data directory for the current host. On linux, this is usually /opt/iobroker/iobroker-data
getAbsoluteInstanceDataDir// old style
const instanceDataDir = utils.getAbsoluteInstanceDataDir(adapter);
// new style (classes)
const instanceDataDir = utils.getAbsoluteInstanceDataDir(this);
Returns the absolute path of the data directory for the current adapter instance.
On linux, this is usually /opt/iobroker/iobroker-data/<adapterName>.<instanceNr>
EXIT_CODESadapter.terminate(
"for some reason",
utils.EXIT_CODES.ADAPTER_REQUESTED_TERMINATION,
);
Use standardized exit codes if your adapter needs to terminate.
commonToolsA collection of various utility methods and modules from JS-Controller. Prefer this over trying to find lib/tools.js and similar internal modules from the controller yourself!
Currently, the following methods are available:
commonTools.pattern2RegEx - Converts a pattern to match object IDs into a RegEx string that can be used in new RegExp(...)commonTools.getAdapterDir - Finds the adapter directory of a given adaptercommonTools.getInstalledInfo - Get list of all installed adapters and controller version on this hostcommonTools.getLocalAddress - Get the localhost (IPv6 or IPv4) address according to the ioBroker configcommonTools.getListenAllAddress - Get the "listen all" (IPv6 or IPv4) address according to the ioBroker configcommonTools.isLocalAddress - Check if given IPv4 or IPv6 ip address corresponds to localhostcommonTools.isListenAllAddress - Check if given IPv4 or IPv6 ip address corresponds to "listen all" addresscommonTools.ensureDNSOrder - Ensure that DNS resolution is performed according to ioBroker configAnd the following modules are exposed:
commonTools.password - Previously exposed as lib/password.js in JS-Controller.commonTools.letsEncrypt - Previously exposed as lib/letsencrypt.js in JS-Controller. Note that letsEncrypt has a capital E!commonTools.session - Previously exposed as lib/session.js in JS-Controller.commonTools.zipFiles - Previously exposed as lib/zipFiles.js in JS-Controller.commonTools.isDocker - Checks if we are running inside a docker containerioBroker has the ability to include files written by adapters in its backups. To enable that, you need to add the following to io-package.json:
{
// ...
"common": {
// ...
"dataFolder": "path/where/your/files/are"
}
}
This path is relative to the path returned by getAbsoluteDefaultDataDir(). The placeholder %INSTANCE% is automatically replaced by the instance number of each adapter, for example "dataFolder": "my-adapter.%INSTANCE%".
npm run build creates a clean rebuild of the module. This is done automatically before every buildnpm run lint checks for linting errorsnpm run watch creates an initial build and then incrementally compiles the changes while working.If you find errors in the definitions, e.g. function calls that should be allowed but aren't, please open an issue here or over at https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped and make sure to mention @AlCalzone.
