hawkBit Device Simulator

The device simulator handles software update commands from the update server.

Run

java -jar examples/hawkbit-device-simulator/target/hawkbit-device-simulator-*-SNAPSHOT.jar

Or:

run org.eclipse.hawkbit.simulator.DeviceSimulator

Notes

The simulator has user authentication enabled by default. Default credentials:

• username : admin
• passwd : admin

This can be configured/disabled by spring boot properties

Usage

Graphical User Interface

The device simulator comes with a graphical user interface which makes it very easy to generate dummy devices handled by the device simulator. The status and the update progress of the simulated device are shown in the UI. The UI can be accessed via the URL:

http://localhost:8083

Basic Authentication Credentials are admin / admin

REST API

The device simulator exposes an REST-API which can be used to trigger device creation.

Optional parameters:

• name : name prefix simulated devices (default: "dmfSimulated"), followed by counter
• amount : number of simulated devices (default: 20, capped at: 4000)
• tenant : in a multi-tenenat ready hawkBit installation (default: "DEFAULT")

Example: for 20 simulated devices (default)

http://localhost:8083/start

Example: for 10 simulated devices that start with the name prefix "activeSim":

http://localhost:8083/start?amount=10&name=activeSim
