# Plc to Google IoT Core Adapter

This Adapter opens a MQTT Bridge to Google Cloud IoT Core.

To run this code, you need an account to the google cloud and a project.
You need to create a device registry and add a device to it, as described here:
https://cloud.google.com/iot/docs/how-tos/devices

Then, you can run the PlcToGoogleIoTCoreSample to connect tho google and send some values into the cloud.
Some sample arguments:

    -project-id=myprojectname
    -registry-id=plc4x-test
    -cloud-region=europe-west1
    -device-id=plc4x-test-device
    -private-key-file=../../../rsa_private_pkcs8
    -algorithm=RS256

Some documentation can be found here:
https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/java-docs-samples/tree/master/iot/api-client/manager#cloud-iot-core-java-mqtt-example
This code was adapted from:
https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/java-docs-samples/tree/master/iot/api-client/manager#cloud-iot-core-java-mqtt-example

To retrieve the messages, you can subscribe to Cloud Pub/Sub.
For example, you could install the google cloud sdk (gcloud) and run:

    gcloud auth login
    gcloud config set myprojectname
    gcloud iot devices configs list --project=myprojectname \\
        --region=europe-west1 \\
        --registry=myplc4x-test-registry \\
        --device=myplc4x-test-device \\
        --limit=5
    gcloud pubsub subscriptions create --topic plc4x-test-events plc4x-test-subscription
    gcloud pubsub subscriptions pull --auto-ack plc4x-test-subscription


To pull more than one message, use the option --limit [number]
