Hi Eduleen,

Yeah, this is the expected result. In the value field of the text/json is the digital twin representation of your device as Eclipse Ditto things and features.

The architecture of Kanto is as follows, there are suite/aws/azure connector which receive messages from the cloud and then those messages are routed to other Kanto and customer components through a local MQTT broker. So, you should host your own Hono instance(there is no progress on the Hono Sandbox certificate issue), switch to AWS or Azure, or skip the remote connection and send messages directly to the local MQTT broker.

The last alternative is the fastest way to try out the software updates. You can use  '$ mosquitto_sub -t "#" -v' command to follow the local MQTT messages and in another terminal, you can publish a software update message. There is a message template in hono_command_su.py. Adjusted to the device from the screenshot you send, the command should be:

$ mosquitto_pub -t command///req/e58e52ff-4860-41e2-8dec-2495325e19c0/install -m '{

Hi Dimitrov/Kanto team,

After adding the steps you've mentioned, it returned a bunch of text 😄.

I guess this is the expected result?

My next question is how to run software update without eclipse hono?

I followed the guide but it seems like connecting to eclipse hono is required.

Your guidance is highly appreciated.

Thank you,

Hi Eduleen,

I just got through the steps of the guide on a clear system, and I was surprised to get the same result as you - no result. After a quick investigation, I found out that you should do one additional step as the /var/lib/local-digital-twins is not created automatically by the local-digital-twins service. The following commands should fix the problem and the structure of the digital twins should be displayed upon python script execution:

   $ mkdir /var/lib/local-digital-twins

   $ systemctl restart local-digital-twins.service

   $ python3 hono_commands_ldt.py -t demo -d demo:device

I am sorry that you wasted some of your time due to this mistake. The creation of the thingsDB directory will be fixed in the local-digital-twins service.

Best regards,

Dimitar Dimitrov

Hi Dimitrov/Kanto team,

We are interested in Software update and Container management features of eclipse kanto.

Thank you for pointing me to how-to-guides/Offline explore edge device. 🙂

I'm following the steps. However, I'm not sure if the results are correct.

Here are the steps I've done.

1. Install dependencies:
   $ sudo apt install -y wget curl git python3 python3-pip
2. Install containerd:
   $ curl -fsSL https://github.com/eclipse-kanto/kanto/raw/main/quickstart/install_ctrd.sh | sh
3. Install eclipse kanto:
   $ wget https://github.com/eclipse-kanto/kanto/releases/download/v0.1.0-M3/kanto_0.1.0-M3_linux_x86_64.deb
   $ sudo apt install ./kanto_0.1.0-M3_linux_x86_64.deb
   * There is a note after installation:
     -
4. Check if eclipse kanto components are running:
   $ systemctl status suite-connector.service container-management.service software-update.service file-upload.service file-backup.service system-metrics.service local-digital-twins.service suite-bootstrapping.service
   - Everything behaves as expected. Only local-digital-twins.service and suite-bootstrapping.service are inactive.
5. Install requirements:
   $ pip3 install -r requirements.txt
   * Cannot install due to this note:
     -
   * I added --break-system-packages to successfully install.
     -
6. Stop suite-connector.service:
   $ sudo systemctl stop suite-connector.service
7. Download offline exploration python script:
   $ wget https://github.com/eclipse-kanto/kanto/raw/main/quickstart/hono_commands_ldt.py
8. Configure Local digital twin config file /etc/local-digital-twins/config.json:

   {

       "logFile": "/var/log/local-digital-twins/local-digital-twins.log",

       "caCert": "/etc/local-digital-twins/iothub.crt",

       "thingsDb": "/var/lib/local-digital-twins/thing.db",

       "tenantId": "demo",

       "deviceId": "demo:device",

       "authId": "demo_device",

       "password": "secret"

     }

9. Start and display status of local-digital-twins.service:
   $ sudo systemctl start local-digital-twins.service
   $ systemctl status local-digital-twins.service
   -
10. Run hono_commands_ldt.py:
    $ python3 hono_commands_ldt.py -t demo -d demo:device
    -

My Questions:

• How can I determine if my local-digital-twins setup is working?
  
• Where can I find this shell mentioned in the verify output according to the guide?
• 
• Can I use this setup for Update software how-to-guide?

Your guidance is highly appreciated.

Hey Eduleen Talledo,

You can go through the Offline explore edge device how-to guide, as it does not require cloud connection. 

There are also other options depending on which Kanto components you are interested in. Eg, If you want to explore the container-management, you can use kanto-cm CLI. You can type kanto-cm --help to check the possible commands. Keep in mind that commands are similar to others container management CLIs(docker, containerd).  Do you have an understanding in which Kanto components you are interested in?

Alternatively, you can use Azure/AWS cloud connectors. Even thought they are not officially released and there is no public documentation, they are functional and can be used. Kanto team could help when configuring them.

Best regards,

Dimitar Dimitrov

Hi Dimitrov/Kanto team,

Thank you Dimitrov. 🙂

May I ask if do I really need to use eclipse hono to use eclipse kanto?

I'm trying to deploy eclipse kanto in my local setup (without cloud).

Is there a documentation to follow on how to do it?

Your guidance is highly appreciated.

Hello Eduleen Talledo,

I have forwarded the issue to the Eclipse Hono team, as the SSL certificate of the Hono Sandbox seems to have expired. I will write back when there is feedback from the Hono team.

Subject: [kanto-dev] Kanto Getting Started Clarification

 

Hi Kanto Team,

We are investigating if its possible and how can we integrate eclipse kanto in our sdv project.

May I ask for guidance about how to use kanto?

I've been following the kanto getting started guide.

However, I got an error when running hono_provisioning.sh.

This is my hono_provisioning.sh file.

Did I miss something while setting up the host OS(Debian 12)? 🙂

Your guidance is highly appreciated.
