          Description

          Hi!

          I’m Iván, from Encore Lab, one of the FI-C3 startups.

          We’re having trouble with the CEP generic enabler. Right now our devices
          send all its data to the ORION platform, and the ORION redirects the
          submitted data to the CEP using some subscriptions. Then we have created a
          new project in CEP in order to try to detect patterns for our seizure
          detection system. But at this step we are having some issues to configure
          the CEP tool, which we don’t know if it’s receiving the events properly or
          if the rules we’ve configured are not correct.

          In order to see what’s working it would be useful to see the CEP’s inner
          status. Is there any tool that allow us to debug the CEP application, or at
          least see if it is receiving and processing the events with no errors and
          which rules are being applied?

          Another question: Is there any more information to read about CEP and its
          connection to ORION? Maybe some examples where it’s showed the connection
          between them can be useful for us. We have seen some videos but its
          explanations are not enough… We’re really having lots of issues and errors
          while configuring the CEP.

          Thank you so much. Kind regards,

          –

              Hello Ivan,
              There is a standing issue in connecting with ORION with PROTON CEP due to change in the message format from XML to JSON. Therefore, new revisions of ORION will not connect.
              You need to use ORION version which works with XML format messages.
              So, is that the case here?

              Thanks,

              Hello,

              At the moment I'm using ORION 0.28 (I've updated from 0.27 this week, and no problems with ORION so far). As far as I know the current version would be the last supporting XML, so this case might not be the conflicting formats.

              Thanks

              Hi Ivan, here is more info from our experts (Assuming you work with the XML messaging format):

              1. To get information re connecting CEP to ORION etc you can look here: https://github.com/ishkin/Proton/blob/master/documentation/ProtonUserGuidev4.4.1.pdf. This is the CEP User guide , from page 40 there are instructions and example on how to connect to ORION context broker.
              2. We have no tooling allowing to inspect CEP internal state, however there are couple of things which should be verified:
                1. First of all the application syntactic correctness. This can be verified by authoring the application in CEP AuthoringTool and clicking on "Verify" button. There should be no errors reported.
                2. Another thing to make sure the application is up and running is to test its state via REST: http://forge.fiware.org/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/fiware/index.php/Complex_Event_Processing_Open_RESTful_API_Specification, under Administrating Instances section there is information how to retrieve instance state
                3. And finally, for debugging the application I would suggest creating a file consumer (basically making Proton to write output events to a file ) in the application definitions JSON, examples on how to do that can be found in the user guide. When specifying the events which should be forwarded to the consumer I would suggest specifying the row input event as well. If this event gets written to the output file and the derived events are not, that means there is something wrong with the application logic. On the other hand, if this event is not delivered to the output file that means something is wrong with the configuration between CEP and Orion, and events are not being delivered to CEP.

              Hope this helps.
