RStudio Integration into Thinger.io

In an effort to provide different development environments within Thinger.io for Time Series Data Analysis, we are pleased to announce the release of the RStudio Plugin for Thinger.io.

This new plugin provides a web-based RStudio Server instance that can be accessed from the Thinger.io console. RStudio® is an integrated development environment (IDE) for R, a programming language for statistical computing and graphics. The RStudio Web IDE plugin can greatly benefit data scientists, IoT developers, and researchers who need to analyze and visualize IoT data effectively.

From Thinger.io we hope that this integration is found useful by professionals across various domains to make data-driven decisions and optimize their IoT solutions.

Check the documentation for the plugin, which contains a plugin overview, integration details, and a guide to get started with RStudio in Thinger.io.

We encourage you to check the documentation for the plugin as well as for the OTA programming.

Node-RED Plugin Version 1.7.0-1

From Thinger.io we have released a new Node-RED Plugin version with some improvements and fixes, hoping to resolve some bugs and make flows easier.

One of the most useful features of this new version is the possibility to use the input message properties through the nodes configuration forms via templates, avoiding the need to use functions or change nodes before concatenating thinger nodes. For example, to call a resource of a device, we can do the following, given that the input message contains a property id and property resource:

This functionality is available for all Thinger.io nodes that allow input messages. More information for each individual node can be found in Node-RED node documentation.

Given this new feature, the endpoint call node can now configure its payload through the configuration form:

The Asset Iterator node can now filter also assets based on assigned products.

Additionally, now the request against the Thinger.io sevice has a configuration timeout, with a default of 30 seconds.

We welcome everyone to interact with us through our community at community.thinger.io as well as from this extensionss GitHub repository
