Changelog
v4.4.0
Features
Concentratord ZMQ API
This updates the Concentratord ZMQ API interface to be compatible with the ChirpStack Concentratord v4.5+ and ChirpStack Gateway Mesh v4.1+. If using the Concentratord backend, make sure to update this / these component(s) too.
Mesh events / commands
This refactors the Gateway Mesh heartbeat payload into a more generic Mesh Event payload, which can be used by both "known" and "proprietary" event types. The first implemented "known" type is the heartbeat. It also implements Mesh commands that can be used to execute commands configured on the Relay gateway.
Bugfixes
v4.3.2
Features
- Add MQTT connection callback configuration (e.g. to exec. command to turn on / off LED on gateway).
Improvements
- Make MQTT re-connect interval configurable through
reconnect_interval
config option. (#63) - On startup, validate that Gateway ID is 8-bytes. (#65)
- Update internal dependencies.
v4.3.1
Features
- Implement handling of ChirpStack Gateway Mesh heartbeat messages.
Improvements
- Update internal dependencies.
Bugfixes
- Spawn message-callback to not block MQTT eventloop. (#57)
v4.3.0
Features
- Expose duty-cycle stats exposed by ChirpStack Concentratord.
- Make it possible to use environment variables in configuration (like ChirpStack).
Improvements
- Update internal dependencies.
v4.2.3
Improvements
- Add
keep_alive_interval
config option for MQTT. (#54) - Update internal dependencies.
v4.2.2
Bugfixes
- Fix mips corrupted payloads regression re-introduced by v4.2.1. (#50)
v4.2.1
Bugfixes
- Fix firewall security issue on Kerlink gateways.
v4.2.0
Features
paho-mqtt
to rumqttc
refactor
This refactors the code to use rumqttc
instead of paho-mqtt
as MQTT client
library. As rumqttc
is a pure-Rust MQTT client, which uses rustls
for TLS,
it is no longer needed to statically link against OpenSSL.
Improvements
- Add AMD64 build. (#46)
- Reconnect ZeroMQ REQ socket on error.
- Update dependencies.
Bugfixes
- Fix extending meta-data in Concentratord backend.
- Fix
udp_bind
>bind
error in config examples. (#49) - Fix corrupted payloads on mips / mipsel platforms. (#50, #52)
v4.1.3
Improvements
- Update RAK packaging for WisGateOS2 v2.2+.
- Implement
preamble
andno_crc
fields. - Update internal dependencies.
v4.1.2
Features
- Provide package for Multitech Conduit AP3.
Improvements
- Update internal dependencies.
v4.1.1
Improvements
- Add packaging for RAK
ramips_24kec
based gateways. - Update internal dependencies.
Bugfixes
- Fix setting empty username and password in MQTT. (#257)
v4.1.0
Features
Improvements
DevAddr and JoinEUI filters
This adds a [backend.filters]
configuration section under which it is
possible to configure the prefix-filters for DevAddr (data uplink) and
JoinEUIs (join-requests).
Time fallback
This adds a time_fallback_enabled
configuration option to the semtech_udp
section. If enabled and no RX time is provided by the packet-forwarder, then
the ChirpStack MQTT Forwarder server-time will be used as fallback.
Build improvements
The provided pre-compiled binaries are fully static and based on musl libc. This removes the need to compile against a very old verion of glibc to stay compatible with old gateway firmwares.
Other improvements
- Update dependencies.
Bugfixes
- Fix bootstript for Dragino
.ipk
package.
v4.0.0
This marks the initial release of the ChirpStack MQTT Forwarder.
The ChirpStack MQTT Forwarder is a re-implementation of the ChirpStack Gateway Bridge for gateway installations only. The aim of this component is to provide a more lightweight solution, that also can be installed on gateways with a limited amount of memory (for example Dragino OpenWRT based gateways).
