In this version I've added MessagePack encoding support for both uplink and downlink data. Encoding format is indicated on messages so this version breaks compatibility with older ones. So please, UPDATE ALL YOUR NETWORK NODES TO THIS VERSION or you may suffer inconsistencies.

This is a big improvement as it makes gateway transparent not only for uplink but for downlink too.

All messages addressed to nodes that use JSON formatting are now automatically converted to MessagePack.

Nodes do the opposite conversion so they get the complete JSON object. Try to make JSON objects as small as possible to keep messages short.

These are the release notes:

  • BugFix: Downlink was broken on 0.8.3. This is fixed now.
  • Add payload encoding field to data messages
  • Add support to MessagePack
