Server

The server package provides the basic functionality of getting data from the IO devices, monitoring the IO device processes and providing an api for th e admin server to query the configuration.

It initially opens a Kafka consumer process and waits for configuration messages on the default admin topic ‘_admin’.

The ckAgent listens for messages on the ‘_admin’ topic. The following messages will be acted upon:-

• add - This adds an IO device.

• del - This deletes an IO device.

• get - This gets the agents configuration and publishes it on the same topic.
