LoRaWAN(R) device-profiles

This repository contains device-profiles for LoRaWAN devices grouped by vendor. A device-profile contains important information about the capabilities of the device. For example which LoRaWAN mac-version has been implemented, which regions are supported, if the device supports Class-B or Class-C, etc... The aim is to build a complete list of LoRaWAN device-profiles that then can be imported by ChirpStack or potentially any other LNS.

Why not use the TTN lorawan-devices repository?

Unfortuantely the https://github.com/thethingsnetwork/lorawan-devices repository can no longer be used as a whole. The open-source license has been removed and users are not allowed to extract and/or reuse the Device Repositoryas as a whole or a substantial part of its content. This prevents ChirpStack users (and other LNS providers) from importing this repository into their database.

The goal of this repository is to provide an open-source database of LoRaWAN device-profiles that can be freely imported.

Structure

Example structure for an example-vendor with an example device:

vendors/
└── example-vendor
    ├── codecs
    │   ├── example.js
    │   ├── test_decode_example.json
    │   └── test_encode_example.json
    ├── devices
    │   └── example.toml
    ├── profiles
    │   └── example-EU868.toml
    └── vendor.toml

Please take a look at the vendors/example-vendor example documented configuration files.

vendors/example-vendor

This is the root of the example vendor. It must contain a vendor.toml file. This vendor.toml.

vendors/example-vendor/codecs

This directory contains the payload codecs. Codecs can be used by one or multiple devices. E.g. some vendors have a generic payload codec.

Each codec is expected to have tests for encoding and decoding. If the codec filename is example.js, then you should create two test-files called test_decode_example.json (thus + test_decode_ prefix and .json extension) and test_encode_example.json.

vendors/example-vendor/devices

This directory contains the devices. Each device will have its own .toml configuration.

vendors/example-vendor/profiles

This directory contains the profiles. These profiles can be used by one or multiple devices. The profile also defines the region.

Running the test

To run the test-runner, execute:

make test

This will run all tests within a Docker Compose environment.
