Sender

Module summary

Sender module is used to read data from receiver and conditionally execute automated actions, usually to route the processed messages to the other systems.

Module lifecycle

Each sender module connected over the Service bus to exactly one Receiver module and follows this process:

1. Periodically checks new data on Receiver
2. Read normalized data from Receiver
3. Evaluate action rules
4. Trigger one or more automated actions
5. Delete processed data from Receiver

Action rules

Automated actions are executed, only if action rules are met or no rules are defined.

Currently, there is just one type of action rule - filter rule. Filter rule defines set of filter conditions, which are evaluated in a row. Filter rule consist of referrenced field name, operation type (e.g. EQ, GT, NOT_NULL, etc) and values.

Automated actions

There are several automated action type:

• Send data to the BellaDati backend over REST API

• Send data to 3rd party systems using HTTP protocol

• Send email

• Save data to file

• Publish MQTT messages to the MQTT server
