Notifications / Events

[James McNab]

Hi  Zaid,

Thanks for getting back to me.

Unfortunately I don’t think provisions and extensions are going to work for me, as in provision you don’t have visibility of data that was received in the Inform message i.e. what type of event trigger the inform and also what parameters were included (most useful for a 4 VALUE CHANGE). I need so I can be informed when something changes on the device, the alternative is I have to poll the GenieACS API and compare a stored copy of the data model to the new copy, which seems extremely inefficient.

I’m going to look at akcoder’s branch that implements this (https://github.com/zaidka/genieacs/pull/45 <https://github.com/zaidka/genieacs/pull/45>) and see if I can rebase it to your master, but I think it might be worth re-evaluating that PR if the new API is not going to be released in the near future. I’d rather not be using a fork if possible!

Cheers,
James
