ros2_medkit_beacon_common
Shared C++ library for beacon-based discovery plugins. Provides hint validation,
entity mapping, response building, and rate limiting used by both ros2_medkit_topic_beacon
and ros2_medkit_param_beacon.
Components
| Class | Purpose |
|---|---|
BeaconHint |
Data struct for discovery hints (entity ID, topology, transport, process diagnostics, metadata) |
BeaconHintStore |
Thread-safe hint storage with TTL-based expiration and deduplication |
BeaconValidator |
Input validation for entity IDs, required fields, and hint consistency |
BeaconEntityMapper |
Maps beacon hints to SOVD entity hierarchy (Apps, Components, Functions, Areas) |
BeaconResponseBuilder |
Builds JSON responses for gateway vendor extension endpoints |
TokenBucket |
Thread-safe rate limiter for high-frequency beacon streams |
Usage
This package is a dependency of the beacon discovery plugins. It is not used directly by end users. Plugin developers building custom beacon types should link against this library for validation and entity mapping.
