Hi all,
I have been working on a POC around geolocation. Like we discussed in another thread, we decided not to have a "deep" integration with the Push server but instead a separate component / microservice. Well the POC is more a miniservice ;)
So, the idea is to have a server to which devices can register by providing their positions. On the other side, the server provide an endpoint to make spatial queries, like give me all the installations within a radius of 10 km around this lat/ltg.
Thanks to Forge, I created/scaffolded a really simple server providing the registration endpoint and the search endpoint.
I tried to make a decent readme that will give you more details :
And as usual, I made a little screencast showing all that in action ;)
Please remember this is a POC, so the security is almost inexistant, the console is awful ;)
What about the Client SDKs ?
If we reach some kind of consensus arounf the concept of Unfied Geo Server we can start building the Client SDKs / POCs , they will be quite simple : retrieve geolocation and register to the geo endpoint.
