Releases: eclipse-hono/hono
Eclipse Hono 0.6-M2
Eclipse Hono 0.6-M1
Eclipse Hono 0.5
This is the initial release of Eclipse Hono with a strict focus on providing functionality for devices to publish Telemetry data and Events for consumption by applications connected to Hono.
Devices can publish data to Hono using MQTT and/or HTTP. Eclipse Kura gateways can publish data to Hono using Kura's standard MqttDataTransport. The arbitrary transport protocols for interacting with devices are implemented by Protocol Adapters. Hono comes with an MQTT, a HTTP and a Kura Protocol Adapter out of the box. Users can extend the range of supported transport protocols by implementing a custom Protocol Adapter and integrating it with the Hono back end services.
When a device connects to a protocol adapter, Hono verifies the device's identity by means of username/password credentials thus establishing the source of the data being published. Consuming applications can then be sure that the data they receive really originates from the indicated device.
The APIs between the protocol adapters and Hono as well as the consuming solutions and Hono are defined in AMQP 1.0.
Milestone 0.5-M10
- Created Eclipse sandbox
- Arbitrary bug fixes and improvements
0.5-M9
Protocol Adapters now require devices to authenticate on connection establishment.
Device Registry exposes RESTful resources for managing credentials via HTTP.
Protocol Adapters expose additional metrics indicating number of processed/discarded messages.
0.5-M4
The main focus of this milestone is:
- support deployment to Docker in Swarm mode
- support deployment to Openshift
- bug fixes
Please refer to the list of closed issues for details.
The easiest and also the preferred way of using Hono is by means of Docker images available from Hono repository on Docker Hub.
Please note that due to changes in packaging we no longer provide a hono-default-config nor a qpid-default-config nor a qpid-sasldb Docker image anymore. The content of these images (mainly
configuration files) has been moved to the corresponding component images.
On the other hand we are now providing our own dispatch-router image which
includes Hono specific configuration files formerly contained in qpid-default- config and qpid-sasldb. Please refer to the Components documentation on the web
site for further details.
0.5-M3
Main focus of this milestone was:
- creation of the initial version of the project web site (#)
- support TLS to encrypt connections between Hono's components and clients
- simplification of code
- several bug fixes
- improve compatibility with Docker Swarm mode
