向非现有设备发送措施时会创建设备 - IoTAgent-UL

Question

We've discovered a bug in the IoT Agent Ultralight.

If we try to send a measure to a non existing device, we'll get a 404 - DEVICE_NOT_FOUND error but at the same time a device without any attribute will be created in IoTA's and Orion CB's database.

When I say a device without any attribute I refer to the following:

{
    "device_id": "test",
    "service": "MyService",
    "service_path": "/MyServicePath",
    "entity_name": "MyEntity:test",
    "entity_type": "MyEntity",
    "attributes": [],
    "lazy": [],
    "commands": [],
    "static_attributes": []
}

This is a very important bug, because it's really simple to create as many devices as someone wants and that could eat our database space.

Does someone know how to solve it?

Answer 1

• Which version of IotAgent-ul and external components, I mean, (Fiware OCB and MongoDB) are you using? It's highly recommend to use the latest one.
• It's a good way to run OCB and MongoDB using docker images
• Could you provided us your commands/code that you used to send a meassure?

From my self, I tested it and it works great:

Curl commands used to send a meassure:

#!/usr/local/bin
mosquitto_pub -t /TEF/sensor03/attrs -m 't|45|c|extreme'

It seems to me that you have something wrong about your config set up. Please provide us all the points before comment and for a nice follow up, could you open it in the Github site ? IotAgent-UL Take up there
