Velocitas VApps

For local deployment without a cloud backend, deployment specifications for Eclipse Velocitas Vehicle Apps may be put directly onto the device.

Create a Kanto deployment specification for your vehicle app. You may copy one of the existing JSON files in /data/var/containers/manifests as a template
Copy the specification file to the device, e.g. scp -P 2222 myapp.json root@localhost:/data/var/containers/manifests/
Apply the specification: systemctl restart kanto-auto-deployer

To update an existing container when the configuration has changed, delete the container and restart kanto-auto-deployer:

kanto-cm remove -n myapp-example
# Edit /data/var/containers/manifests/myapp.json
kanto-auto-deployer

Configuration of Velocitas Middleware Type

The following Velocitas environment variables need to be set to configure the proper middleware type and hostnames of services:

SDV_MQTT_ADDRESS=mosquitto:1883
SDV_VEHICLEDATABROKER_ADDRESS=databroker:55555
SDV_MIDDLEWARE_TYPE=native

Example Deployment Specification

Attention: The current implementation requires all fields to be present in the JSON, even if the values are not set or used. Do not remove any fields, as it may break the functionality.
