Push Notifications vs Events.
brunoga opened this issue · 8 comments
I am trying to figure out how exactly this all should work but without success. When I send something like:
gimbal push attitude on;
to the robot, I get an ok reply but it does not look like I am receiving anything either via port 40924/udp (Message push) or 40925/tcp (Event reporting). WHere should I get those messages? Are they being sent at all?
Push and event are working well, give this a try:

Push and event will appear in console logs: https://github.com/nanmu42/robo-playground/blob/7654497072ae11e84124a7e6b37f5ab472d7f159/drive.py#L174

Yep, it was a bug on my code in the end. Still the documentation could be improved. As it is now, it is a bit confusing.
Anyway, I am also writing a framework for the SDK but using Go instead of Python. You might be interested in taking a look at it although it is not even close to be as feature complete as robomasterpy. Go Robomaster Framework
Cool, take my star.
So, it looks like there is no explicit use of the "Event reporting" endpoint in the API at all so I wonder what it is for. Everything seems to use push notifications ("Message push").
What is it supposed to be used for?
Have a look at armor hit and sound applause.

I did not implement the Armor or Applause stuff yet in my framework but, from the documentation (against, translated form chinese to english so that might be the issue) it looks like those are push events (see highlighted parts):
3.2.6.3. Reporting control of armor plate events
IN: armor event
description
Control the reporting of armor plate detection events
See event reporting data format armor plate event reporting data
parameter
attr ( armor_event_attr_enum): Event attribute name
switch ( switch_enum): Event attribute control switch
Examples
armor event hit on;: open the armor plate detection event push
3.2.6.4. Data reporting for armor plate incidents
OUT: armor event hit
description
When an armor plate tapping event occurs, this message can be received from the event push port
parameter

drive.py has used all these stuffs, you may try and see.

Oh, don't take me wrong, I believe what you are saying. I just wanted to make a point that the documentation is confusing in this respect.
