CayenneLPP by Electronic Cats - Library for Arduino and ESP-IDF

LibraryBuild

This is an Library for Arduino and ESP-IDF Compatible with Cayenne Low Power Payload with Extended Data Types.

CayenneLPP is a format designed by myDevices to integrate LoRaWan nodes into their IoT Platform. It is used to send sensor data in a packed way to The Things Network platform. You can read more on myDevices CayenneLPP

Description

CayenneLPP format is a quite well-optimized way to send sensor data over low bit rate connection, like LoRa. You may find, probably, a better way for your specific project but CayenneLPP is a standardized and proven format that packs data in a sufficient way. It implements basic sensor types specified by OMA SpecWorks, formerly IPSO Alliance.

It supports multichannel data, which means that you can use it on multisensor devices.

Warning

This version of the library includes several IPSO data types not included in the original work by Johan Stokking or most of the forks and side works by other people, these additional data types are not supported by My Devices Cayenne. In addition, it includes a fully backward-compatible decoder in JavaScript, suitable for implementations with NodeRED or TTN, for instance.

When using the decoder, you must install the ArduinoJson 6.X library. You can find it in both the Arduino IDE and Platform IO library managers.
