  • Enable ISO-on-TCP connection on the S7 device

Build Instructions

  1. Clone the device-rest-go repo with the following command:

    git clone https://github.com/edgexfoundry/device-s7.git

  2. Build a docker image by using the following command:

    make docker

  3. Alternatively the device service can be built natively:

    make build

Build with NATS Messaging

Currently, the NATS Messaging capability (NATS MessageBus) is opt-in at build time. This means that the published Docker images do not include the NATS messaging capability.

The following make commands will build the local binary or local Docker image with NATS messaging capability included.

make build-nats
make docker-nats

Packaging

This component is packaged as docker images.

Please refer to the Dockerfile and Docker Compose Builder scripts.
