public class BabelSimpleChainableLedsHSBDemo extends pt.unl.fct.di.novasys.babel.core.GenericProtocol implements BabelDemo
Demo: the minimal way to drive a Grove chainable RGB LED strip in the HSB (hue/saturation/brightness) colour model. Every LED in the chain is set to the same colour, which sweeps smoothly around the spectrum over time.

This is the HSB twin of BabelSimpleChainableLedsRGBDemo and the stripped-down counterpart of BabelChainableLedsHSBDemo: no per-LED colour buffer, no batched request — on each tick it computes one HSB colour and sends a separate SetChainableLEDColorHSBRequest for every LED position. The only difference from the simple RGB demo is the colour model and the request type; the control protocol converts HSB to the wire format.

Devices & control protocols used. One Grove chainable RGB LED strip (DeviceType.GROVE_CHAINABLE_RGB), driven through the DigitalOutputControlProtocol (protocol id 2300).

The teaching point. The app never touches Pi4J or GPIO. It registers the device, keeps the returned DeviceHandle, and drives the strip purely by sending Babel requests; the control protocol does the GPIO work.

To run: java -jar <jar> simpleLedsHSB (see Main.java).

Configuration. The strip length is read from the rgb.led.count property (via DigitalOutputControlProtocol.RGB_LED_COUNT, default 1) and the GPIO data line from led.line (default 24) — both in paradigmshift.config.

Based on IoT-control demos originally developed at NOVA FCT for the TaRDIS project; provided and evolved independently by ParadigmShift.

    • init

      public void init(Properties props) throws pt.unl.fct.di.novasys.babel.exceptions.HandlerRegistrationException, IOException
      Wires this protocol's event handlers and starts device registration.

      The reply and timer handlers are registered before the request is sent, so the RegisterIoTDeviceReply cannot arrive before its handler is in place. We then ask the DigitalOutputControlProtocol to register a chainable RGB strip on deviceLine; the handle comes back asynchronously in handleRegisterIoTDeviceReply(pt.unl.fct.di.tardis.babel.iot.api.replies.RegisterIoTDeviceReply, short).

      Specified by:
      init in class pt.unl.fct.di.novasys.babel.core.GenericProtocol
      Throws:
      pt.unl.fct.di.novasys.babel.exceptions.HandlerRegistrationException
      IOException

    • handleDemoTimer

      public void handleDemoTimer(DemoTimer t, long time)
      Periodic-timer handler: each tick advances the colour by repainting the strip. Babel calls this on its event loop once the timer is armed in handleRegisterIoTDeviceReply(pt.unl.fct.di.tardis.babel.iot.api.replies.RegisterIoTDeviceReply, short).

    • handleRegisterIoTDeviceReply

      public void handleRegisterIoTDeviceReply(pt.unl.fct.di.tardis.babel.iot.api.replies.RegisterIoTDeviceReply rep, short protocolId)
      Reply handler for the device registration. Babel routes the RegisterIoTDeviceReply here once the control protocol has claimed the hardware.

      The pattern: check RegisterIoTDeviceReply.isSuccessful(); on failure, bail out. On success, keep the DeviceHandle (our only reference to the strip), paint an initial frame, and arm the periodic timer that drives the colour sweep. The alias check guards against a mismatched reply.

    • execute

      public void execute() throws Exception
      Entry point for this demo (called from Main). Bootstraps Babel: grab the Babel singleton, load paradigmshift.config, instantiate the one control protocol this demo needs (DigitalOutputControlProtocol), register it plus this demo, init them in dependency order (control protocol first so its handlers exist before we send to it), then start the event loop.
      Specified by:
      execute in interface BabelDemo
      Throws:
      Exception
