update-connectivity-info

Description

Updates connectivity information for a Greengrass core device.

Connectivity information includes endpoints and ports where client devices can connect to an MQTT broker on the core device. When a client device calls the Greengrass discovery API , IoT Greengrass returns connectivity information for all of the core devices where the client device can connect. For more information, see Connect client devices to core devices in the IoT Greengrass Version 2 Developer Guide .

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  update-connectivity-info
--thing-name <value>
--connectivity-info <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--thing-name (string)

The name of the core device. This is also the name of the IoT thing.

--connectivity-info (list)

The connectivity information for the core device.

(structure)

Contains information about an endpoint and port where client devices can connect to an MQTT broker on a Greengrass core device.

id -> (string)

An ID for the connectivity information.

hostAddress -> (string)

The IP address or DNS address where client devices can connect to an MQTT broker on the Greengrass core device.

portNumber -> (integer)

The port where the MQTT broker operates on the core device. This port is typically 8883, which is the default port for the MQTT broker component that runs on core devices.

metadata -> (string)

Additional metadata to provide to client devices that connect to this core device.

Shorthand Syntax:

id=string,hostAddress=string,portNumber=integer,metadata=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "id": "string",
    "hostAddress": "string",
    "portNumber": integer,
    "metadata": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples

To update connectivity information for a Greengrass core device

The following update-connectivity-info example gets the connectivity information for a Greengrass core device. Client devices use this information to connect to the MQTT broker that runs on this core device.

aws greengrassv2 update-connectivity-info \
    --thing-name MyGreengrassCore \
    --cli-input-json file://core-device-connectivity-info.json

Contents of core-device-connectivity-info.json:

{
    "connectivityInfo": [
        {
            "hostAddress": "192.0.2.0",
            "portNumber": 8883,
            "id": "localIP_192.0.2.0"
        }
    ]
}

Output:

{
    "version": "a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111"
}

Output

version -> (string)

The new version of the connectivity information for the core device.

message -> (string)

A message about the connectivity information update request.
