Hello OpenEMS community,
I’m a new OpenEMS user working on a customization project. I’ve reached the Alerts part and my goal is to display alerts in my own UI. I found the bundle io.openems.backend.alerting
, but I don’t fully understand how it works.
Context:
- I want an EdgeController (e.g., monitoring
meter0/Current
) to raise an alert whenever a channel value exceeds a threshold. - That alert should be generated on the edge, forwarded to the backend, and then pushed to my custom UI—so the UI stays updated with all active alerts.
Questions:
- Does the existing alerting logic in the OpenEMS base code already support this workflow? If so, how can I leverage it to achieve my objective?
- If not (i.e., if I need to implement alerting from scratch), could you provide a high-level roadmap for doing so?
Thank you in advance for your help!
