What's the problem with mapping it to a driver id using computed attributes?
Wow, your responses are so quick. Thank you for that.
Well, I suppose I have no idea how to do that then. I managed to map io's to rpm/throttle and so on, but this one is above my pay grade.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Also happy to make a donation for your time.
Create a computed attribute "driver id" (or whatever it's called) and put beacon1Namespace
as the expression.
That works like a bomb, thank you. My problem is mapping this back to trip report. I have the built in driverUniqueId in computed attributes which maps to beacon1Namspace and a test returns the ID. Under trip report through, driver remains empty.
Driver has been added with an identifier that matches this string returned. Seems it does not just map automatically and I still need to do something.
You need to make sure you have driver value in every position. Computed attributes also don't apply retroactively.
Do you mean, it must report it with every record or that there must be a driver for every reported value?
Currently there is only one tag reporting, and one driver until I can make this work, so it will indeed only be one value.
This tag only sends its ID every 30 seconds. There is no way to have it send with every location update. It works like an event, such as harsh braking and is occasional. Went back to test the computed attribute and got this instead of the ID, where it worked previously
org.traccar.handler.ComputedAttributesHandler.computeAttribute:124@1:1 variable 'beacon1Namespace' is undefined - Variable (ComputedAttributesHandler:125 < AttributeResource:63 < ... < OverrideFilter:49 < ...)
If it doesn't report it with every location, you should use attribute copying to copy it. Otherwise reports won't work properly.
<entry key = 'processing.copyAttributes.enable'> true </entry>
<entry key = 'processing.copyAttributes'> driver unique id </entry>
also changed expression to: beacon1Namespace ? beacon1Namespace : null
to prevent previous error in testing.
Returns value when you keep testing and the 30 seconds passed.
Vehicle stopped now, will need to wait and hope it works.
Thank you Anton.
It should be "driverUniqueId" instead of "driver unique id".
Hi Anton.
Thanks a mil.
I did that, but still nothing, so I changed beacon1Namespace ? beacon1Namespace : null to just beacon1Namespace assuming the copy attribute actually looks for empty reports and that worked.
So for anyone else with this requirement, there you go.
Much appreciate your quick replies and help. Awesome product.
Hi there clever people.
I have a Teltonika device, which needs to scan a bluetooth unit and report on the unique ID.
I have managed to get this going on the hardware but it reports it as an event and not an io/attribute.
Below is the full string it reports. I have searched computed attributed but have not found anything that helps me map this beacon1Namespace to a driver. Please help.
