SDK Configuration Options

Here is a list of the configuration options that the SDK constructor takes as parameters.

constructor (token: string, exhibitId: number, manifest: Object, options = {})

token

The exhibit token generated through the Exhibit/Auth tab in the Gumband UI. This is required to authenticate the SDK with Gumband.

exhibitId

The ID of the exhibit in Gumband. This can be found under the Exhibit/Auth tab in the Gumband UI. This is required to authenticate the SDK with Gumband.

manifest

The exhibit manifest. See the Exhibit Manifest Configuration docs for how to structure the manifest object.

options

All of the remaining optional parameters that enables certain features of the Gumband SDK.

contentLocation: string

Including this option tells the SDK to download a copy of each file in the Exhibit/Files tab of the Gumband UI and save them in this location. The SDK will automatically sync these files each time it starts and connects to Gumband, but the files can also be synced manually with the gb.content.sync() function.

endpoint: string

Set to “app” by default. May be set to “custom” if app.gumband.com is not the instance of Gumband to which you’re connecting your exhibit. If set to “custom”, the sdk can connect the “customServerIP” option or 0.0.0.0 if “customServerIP“ is left undefined.

customServerIP: string

If the “endpoint” configuration option is set to “custom”, this option can be set in order to tell the SDK the IP address of the Gumband server to which it is connecting. Set to 0.0.0.0 by default.

version: string

The version of the Gumband Cloud to which the exhibit should connect. Set to “v1” by default.

noInternetConnection: boolean

Tells the SDK that the exhibit is expected to be disconnected from the internet, and should not attempt to authenticate with Gumband.

allowOnlyCloudHardwareIds: boolean

Tells the SDK only to allow messages from hardware associated with the same exhibit as the SDK.

allowedHardwareIds: number[]

A whitelist of hardware IDs. The SDK is only permitted to process messages from hardware on this whitelist. By default, messages from all hardware IDs are permitted.

useLocalMQTTBroker: boolean

Whether a local MQTT broker should be started when the SDK is initialized. This MQTT broker is used to communicate with Gumband Hardware.

MQTTBrokerIP: string

An IP for the user provided MQTT broker. The SDK will attempt to open an MQTT client connection to this IP and the port from the MQTTBrokerPort option.

MQTTBrokerPort: number

Only applicable if the “useLocalMQTTBroker” option is true. This option is the port that the local MQTT broker is exposed on.

skipOrganizationFileSync: boolean

Set to true by default. Tells the SDK not to download all organization files along with the exhibit files when the “contentLocation” option is provided. Exhibit files are only accessible by the exhibit under the Exhibit/Files tab in the Gumband UI, but organization files are available to all exhibits under the organization and can be seen under each exhibits' Files tab. Organization files are prefixed by “[ORG]” and are managed by the Strapi CMS.

SDK Base Function Library

isReady( )

Returns true if Gumband is connected to the Gumband Cloud and is ready to process requests. Useful when the Gumband SDK is initialized in multiple places since the constructor returns a singleton and it is possible to "miss" the READY event if an event listener is not configured yet.

setManifest(manifestLocation: string): Promise<void>

Use a local manifest to update the exhibit items on the gumband cloud. This function updates the SDK cache of the manifest as well.

manifestLocation

The directory path to the manifest.

Example

gumbandSDK.setManifest('./path/to/manifest.json');

getOperatingMode( ): Promise<boolean>

The Operating Mode feature is deprecated and disabled by default. You can continue to use it, but we plan to replace it with a more functional feature in the future. When the feature is disabled, this method will always resolve false. To enable the OperatingMode feature, call the setOperatingMode method once while the SDK is connected to the Gumband platform.

Get the current operating mode for the exhibit from Gumband.

Example

let operatingMode = await gumbandSDK.getOperatingMode();

console.log(`Operating Mode: ${operatingMode}`);
// Operating Mode: true

setOperatingMode(opMode: boolean): Promise<void>

The Operating Mode feature is deprecated and disabled by default. You can continue to use it, but we plan to replace it with a more functional feature in the future. To enable the OperatingMode feature, call the setOperatingMode method once while the SDK is connected to the Gumband platform.

Set the operating mode for the exhibit in Gumband.

opMode

The target operating mode.

Example

await gumbandSDK.setOperatingMode(true);

getStatus(statusName: string): Promise<string>

Get the value of a status from Gumband.

statusName

The “id” field of the status in the manifest.

Example

let statusValue = await gumbandSDK.getStatus('cpu-usage');

console.log(`CPU Usage: ${statusValue}`);
// CPU Usage: 50%

setStatus(statusName: string, value: string): Promise<void>

Set the value of a status in Gumband.

value

The target value to which the status should be set.

Example

Sockets.HARDWARE_FULLY_REGISTERED

Emitted when a Gumband Hardware connects to and registers its app and system info/properties with the exhibit SDK.

Example

gumbandSDK.on(Sockets.HARDWARE_FULLY_REGISTERED, (payload) => {
    console.log(payload);
    
    //  {
    //    id: "hardware-id",
    //    system: {
    //      info: {
    //        ...systemInfo
    //      },
    //      properties: {
    //        ...systemProperties
    //      }
    //    },
    //    app: {
    //      info: {
    //        ...appInfo
    //      },
    //      properties: {
    //        ...appProperties
    //      }
    //    }
    //  }
});

Sockets.HARDWARE_SYSTEM_PROPERTY_RECEIVED

Emitted when a system property is changed in a Gumband Hardware that is connected to the exhibit.

Example

gumbandSDK.on(Sockets.HARDWARE_SYSTEM_PROPERTY_RECEIVED, async (payload) => {
    console.log(payload);
    
    //  {
    //      id: 'hardware-id',
    //      info: {
    //        system: { info: [Object], properties: [Array] },
    //        app: { info: [Object], properties: [Array] }
    //      },
    //      value: [ "myValue" ],
    //      property: 'My Property',
    //      source: 'app'
    //  }
});

Sockets.HARDWARE_APP_PROPERTY_RECEIVED

Emitted when an app property is changed in a Gumband Hardware that is connected to the exhibit.

Example

gumbandSDK.on(Sockets.HARDWARE_APP_PROPERTY_RECEIVED, async (payload) => {
    console.log(payload);
    
    //  {
    //      id: 'hardware-id',
    //      info: {
    //        system: { info: [Object], properties: [Array] },
    //        app: { info: [Object], properties: [Array] }
    //      },
    //      value: [ "myValue" ],
    //      property: 'My Property',
    //      source: 'app'
    //  }
});

Sockets.HARDWARE_PROPERTY_RECEIVED

Emitted when either a system or app property is changed in a Gumband Hardware that is connected to the exhibit.

Example

gumbandSDK.on(Sockets.HARDWARE_PROPERTY_RECEIVED, async (payload) => {
    console.log(payload);
    
    //  {
    //      id: 'hardware-id',
    //      info: {
    //        system: { info: [Object], properties: [Array] },
    //        app: { info: [Object], properties: [Array] }
    //      },
    //      value: [ "myValue" ],
    //      property: 'My Property',
    //      source: 'app'
    //  }
});

Sockets.FILE_UPLOADED

Emitted when a new file has been uploaded to Gumband, usually through the Exhibit/Files tab of the Gumband UI.

Example

gumbandSDK.on(Sockets.FILE_UPLOADED, (payload) => {
    console.log(payload);
    
    // {
    //   file: 'uploadedFileName.png',
    //   size: 7891,
    //   exhibitId: '1',
    //   lastUpdated: '2023-08-28T16:14:54.418Z'
    // }
});

Sockets.FILE_DELETED

Emitted when a file is deleted from Gumband, usually through the Exhibit/Files tab of the Gumband UI.

Example

gumbandSDK.on(Sockets.FILE_DELETED, (payload) => {
    console.log(payload);
    
    // { 
    //   file: 'deletedFileName.png'
    // }
});

Sockets.ERROR

Emitted when any error is logged to the local logger via Gumband.

Example

gumbandSDK.on(Sockets.ERROR, (payload) => {
    console.log(payload);
    
    // This is an error message
    // Note: you can forward these errors to the Gumband UI by calling:
    // gumbandSDK.logger.error(payload);
});
