* DDI API: Limit number of feedback messages for an action status. Even though the number of ActionStatus entries are limited to 1000 per action using QuotaManagement, there is no limit on the number of messages that can be sent as part of a single ActionStatus. This allows a controller to potentially send large number of messages for a single action. Limiting the number of allowed messages to 50 using the javax.validation.constraints.Size within DdiStatus.

(#381) Resolves #381 The mechanism is useful for example, when the client software running on the device loses this information prior to reporting a final execution status such as 'closed' to hawkBit. This may happen, e.g., due to a power cycle or simply a crash. Upon the client software restarting, it installs the same payload again as advertised by hawkBit (as the device has not sent a final update execution status). Instead, if the last feedback sent to hawkBit would be reported back to the device, the client may resume installation. Feedback messages sent as part of POST /{tenant}/controller/v1/{targetid}/deploymentBase/{actionId}/feedback, are sent back to controller as part of response to GET /{tenant}/controller/v1/{targetid}/deploymentBase/{actionId}. Following example illustrates the API changes: 1. After retrieving the action from server, controller starts download and sends a feedback. curl 'http://127.0.0.1:8080/default/controller/v1/1/deploymentBase/1/feedback' -i -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8' -H 'Accept: application/hal+json' -d '{ "id" : "1", "time" : "20170406T121500", "status" : { "result" : { "progress" : { "of" : 1, "cnt" : 0 }, "finished" : "none" }, "execution" : "proceeding", "details" : [ "proceeding with download" ] } }' 2. Once artifact download has finished, controller sends another feedback. curl 'http://127.0.0.1:8080/default/controller/v1/1/deploymentBase/1/feedback' -i -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8' -H 'Accept: application/hal+json' -d '{ { "id" : "1", "time" : "20170406T123000", "status" : { "result" : { "progress" : { "of" : 1, "cnt" : 0 }, "finished" : "none" }, "execution" : "proceeding", "details" : [ "downloaded artifacts for update" ] } }' 3. If there is a power outage now, the controller can retrieve the messages posted earlier from the action history when it restarts again. curl 'http://127.0.0.1:8080/default/controller/v1/1/deploymentBase/1?c=411599879&actionHistory=-1' -i -H 'Accept: application/hal+json' Response will be like below { "id": "1", "deployment": { "download": "forced", "update": "forced", "chunks": [ { "part": "os", "version": "1", "name": "1", "artifacts": [....], } ], }, "actionHistory": { "status": "RETRIEVED", "messages": [ "downloaded artifacts for update", "proceeding with download" ] } } 4. Based on the feedback messages, controller may be able to skip the download and resume with installation and send additional feedback. curl 'http://127.0.0.1:8080/default/controller/v1/1/deploymentBase/1/feedback' -i -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8' -H 'Accept: application/hal+json' -d '{ "id" : "1", "time" : "20170406T121314", "status" : { "result" : { "progress" : { "of" : 1, "cnt" : 0 }, "finished" : "none" }, "execution" : "resumed", "details" : [ "resuming installation based on previous feedback, download skipped" ] } }' Note: The maximum number of messages to be retrieved from the database by a controller is limited to 100. The actionHistory parameter's value has the following meaning: Input Value | Output ----------------------------- <0 | Retrieve maximum allowed number of messages from | action history. unspecified or =0 | Do not retrieve any message (default). >0 | Retrieve specified number of messages, limited by | maximum allowed number.

Eclipse hawkBit Documentation
The hawkBit documenation is based on the Jekyll
Jekyll is a ruby gem and needs ruby to execute.
Build and Serve documentation
Unix / Mac
On a unix or mac you don't need to extra install Jekyll. The maven build is downloading the ruby runtime and the necessary ruby-gems via the maven rubygems-proxy repository. The ruby runtime is downloaded into the target folder and executed during the build.
To serve the current documentation you only need to call mvn gem:exec@jekyll-serve. It automatically monitors the filesystem and every local changes are generated on-demand on the local server http://127.0.0.1:4000/.
Windows
On a windows operating system you'll need to install Jekyll manually. If you don't have installed Jekyll on your machine you can just use the PortableJekyll project. Just clone the Github repository and start the setpath.cmd which setups the necessary path entries into the CMD (Don't forget to copy them into the environment path variable to have the path set for every command prompt).
The maven build on windows just executes the Jekyll process using the maven-exec plugin. This allows to also use maven build to build and servce the documentation on a windows machine.
To serve the current documentation you only need to call mvn exec:exec@jekyll-serve. It automatically monitors the filesystem and every local changes are generated on-demand on the local server http://127.0.0.1:4000/.
