Jobs_GetTopic()

JobsStatus_t Jobs_GetTopic	(	char *	buffer,
		size_t	length,
		const char *	thingName,
		uint16_t	thingNameLength,
		JobsTopic_t	api,
		size_t *	outLength
	)

Populate a topic string for a subscription request.

Parameters

[in]	buffer	The buffer to contain the topic string.
[in]	length	The size of the buffer.
[in]	thingName	The device's thingName as registered with AWS IoT.
[in]	thingNameLength	The length of the thingName.
[in]	api	The desired Jobs API, e.g., JobsNextJobChanged.
[out]	outLength	The length of the topic string written to the buffer.

Returns

JobsSuccess if the topic was written to the buffer; JobsBadParameter if invalid parameters are passed; JobsBufferTooSmall if the buffer cannot hold the full topic string.

When all parameters are valid, the topic string is written to the buffer up to one less than the buffer size. The topic is ended with a NUL character.

Note

The thingName parameter does not need a NUL terminator.

The AWS IoT Jobs service does not require clients to subscribe to the "/accepted" and "/rejected" response topics for the APIs that accept requests on PUBLISH topics. The Jobs service will send responses to requests from clients irrespective of whether they have subscribed to response topics or not. For more information, refer to the AWS docs here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot/latest/developerguide/jobs-mqtt-api.html

Example

// The following example shows usage of the Jobs_GetTopic API to
// generate topic string for the NextJobExecutionChanged API
// of AWS IoT Jobs service.
 
// Every device should have a unique thing name registered with AWS IoT Core.
// This example uses a dummy serial number for the thing name.
#define THING_NAME           "11223445566"
#define THING_NAME_LENGTH    ( sizeof( THING_NAME ) - 1U )
 
// This example allocates a buffer of maximum length for a Jobs topic
// possible for the thing name using the JOBS_API_MAX_LENGTH macro.
char topicBuffer[ JOBS_API_MAX_LENGTH( THING_NAME_LENGTH ) ] = { 0 };
uint16_t topicLength = 0U;
JobsStatus_t status = JobsSuccess;
status = Jobs_GetTopic( topicBuffer,
                        sizeof( topicBuffer ),
                        THING_NAME,
                        THING_NAME_LENGTH,
                        &( topicLength ) );
 
if( status == JobsSuccess )
{
    // The topic string of length, topicLength, has been
    // generated in the buffer, topicBuffer, for the NextJobExecutionChanged API.
    // Subscribe to this topic using an MQTT client of your choice.
}

See jobs.h for docs.

Jobs_MatchTopic()

JobsStatus_t Jobs_MatchTopic	(	char *	topic,
		size_t	length,
		const char *	thingName,
		uint16_t	thingNameLength,
		JobsTopic_t *	outApi,
		char **	outJobId,
		uint16_t *	outJobIdLength
	)

Output a topic value if a Jobs API topic string is present. Optionally, output a pointer to a jobID within the topic and its length.

Parameters

[in]	topic	The topic string to check.
[in]	length	The length of the topic string.
[in]	thingName	The device's thingName as registered with AWS IoT.
[in]	thingNameLength	The length of the thingName.

Returns

JobsSuccess if a matching topic was found; JobsNoMatch if a matching topic was NOT found (parameter outApi gets JobsInvalidTopic ); JobsBadParameter if invalid parameters are passed.

Note

The topic and thingName parameters do not need a NUL terminator.

Not all Jobs APIs have jobIDs within the topic string. NULL and 0 are output when no jobID is present. The parameters jobId and jobIdLength may be NULL.

    }
    else
    {

0 if write to buffer fails

messageLength if the write is successful

Example

// The Following Example shows usage of the Jobs_UpdateMsg API to
// generate a message string for the UpdateJobExecution API
// of the AWS IoT Jobs Service
const char * expectedVersion = "2";
size_t expectedVersionLength = ( sizeof(expectedVersion ) - 1U );
JobCurrentStatus_t status = Succeeded;
char messageBuffer[ UPDATE_JOB_MSG_LENGTH ]  = {0};
size_t messageLength = 0U;

{
    // The message string of length, messageLength, has been
    // generated in the buffer, messageBuffer, for the UpdateJobExecution API
    // Publish this message to the topic generated by Jobs_Update using an

                             &jobId);
 
if ( jobIdLength > 0 )
{
    // Job ID was successfully extracted from the message
    // Store the Job ID so that it can be used as needed by other functions.
    // For example, as an input to Jobs_Update.
}
