NAME

OPCUA::Open62541 - Perl XS wrapper for open62541 OPC UA library

SYNOPSIS

  use OPCUA::Open62541;

  my $server = OPCUA::Open62541::Server->new();

  my $client = OPCUA::Open62541::Client->new();

DESCRIPTION

The open62541 is a library implementing an OPC UA client and server. This module provides access to the C functionality from Perl programs.

EXPORT

Refer to OPCUA::Open62541::Constant module about the exported values.

METHODS

Refer to the open62541 documentation for the semantic of classes and methods.

Variant

$variant = OPCUA::Open62541::Variant->new()

$variant->isEmpty()

$variant->isScalar()

$variant->hasScalarType($data_type)

$variant->hasArrayType($data_type)

$variant->setScalar($p, $data_type)

VariableAttributes

This type is converted automatically from a hash. The key that are recognized are:

VariableAttributes_value

Server

$server = OPCUA::Open62541::Server->new()

$server = OPCUA::Open62541::Server->newWithConfig($server_config)

$server_config = $server->getConfig()

$status_code = $server->run($server, $running)

$running should be TRUE at statup. When set to FALSE during method invocation, the server stops magically.

$status_code = $server->run_startup($server)

$wait_ms = $server->run_iterate($server, $wait_internal)

$status_code = $server->run_shutdown($server)

ServerConfig

$status_code = $server_config->setDefault()

$status_code = $server_config->setMinimal($port, $certificate)

$server_config->setCustomHostname($custom_hostname)

Client

$client = OPCUA::Open62541::Client->new()

$client_config = $client->getConfig()

$status_code = $client->connect($url)

$status_code = $client->connect_async($endpointUrl, $callback, $userdata)

$status_code = $client->run_iterate($timeout)

$client_state = $client->getState()

$status_code = $client->disconnect()

ClientConfig

$status_code = $client_config->setDefault()

Logger

The Logger can either be a standalone object or use the embedded logger of a sever config. In the latter case the life time is entangled with the config. It contains Perl callbacks to the log and clear functions. The log funtions are exported to Perl.

$logger = OPCUA::Open62541::Logger->new()

$logger->setCallback($log, $context, $clear);

$log = sub { my ($context, $level, $category, $message) = @_ }

$clear = sub { my ($context) = @_ }

$logger->logTrace($category, $msg, ...);

$logger->logDebug($category, $msg, ...);

$logger->logInfo($category, $msg, ...);

$logger->logWarning($category, $msg, ...);

$logger->logError($category, $msg, ...);

$logger->logFatal($category, $msg, ...);

CAVEATS

This interface is far from complete.

UA_Int64 and UA_UInt64 are implemented as Perl IV respectively IV. This only works for Perl that is compiled on a 64 bit platform. 32 bit platforms are currently not supported.
