Chirpstack documentation V4 - not updated for importing Device Templates

Drone51_Limited · June 14, 2024, 9:54am

Hello dears !

I’ve found that JS decoders mentioned in :

https://www.chirpstack.io/docs/chirpstack/use/device-profile-templates.html

Are not up to date to Chirpstack V4 , which need decodeUplink function instead of Decoder.

Could you kindly provide the URL/github link to donwload all device templates with the correct decodeUplink function ?

Best.-

Santi

The Chirpstack device repository is a fork of TTN’s device repository from when it was still legal to use it:

This removes importing The Things Network's Device Repository via `import-ttn-lo…rawan-devices`. First, the import is full reuse and/or extraction of a database that is obtained, verified (reviewed, tested) and structured by The Things Industries, and therefore violates database protection rights. This right is implicitly granted under EU law, but we clarified this today in https://github.com/TheThingsNetwork/lorawan-devices#database-protection-right. Second, this code depends on a very specific structure of the Device Repository. We do not provide guarantees that we follow this structure going forward. In fact, we are planning changes to the database structure that will break this import tooling. I guess it is interest of the ChirpStack user community that import functionality is unavailable rather than it is broken. We do not accept that our branding is associated with functionality that we know will break in the future.
