ARTIK API

The ARTIK API is intended to speed application development on ARTIK 5, 7, and 10 hardware modules. This API has been developed in an object-oriented fashion, in order to provide consistency across the different languages and bindings supported.

Go to the ARTIK API pages now for complete details on the API calls. Refer to the Wireless IoT Networks articles for information on the APIs for the ARTIK 0 family.

ARTIK Board Setup Procedure

To add the API support package to your ARTIK module code, you'll need to point to the package repository and add a public key to allow connection to the repository. You'll then be able to install the package.

Use the terminal emulator connection to your ARTIK board to create the following files.

1. Add a new repository. In the existing /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory, create a file named artik.repo and add the content shown.

3. Install the API package. The following command will install all the compiled binary tests as well as all the compiled API libraries. Doing so allows applications that were developed using the API to run on your platform.
   dnf repository-packages artik upgrade
dnf install libartik-sdk-tests artiksee

Development PC Setup Procedure

From the development side, there are two approaches to installing and using the ARTIK API.

• Install Eclipse. When you install the Eclipse IDE according to our instructions, the ARTIK API is made available to your programming environment.

• Use your own environment. If you prefer a different development environment, you have to install each of the development libraries for the associated function. For example, to use your ARTIK board for your development environment, you would run the following commands to install the various packages needed.

  dnf install libartik-sdk-base-devel
dnf install libartik-sdk-bluetooth-devel
dnf install libartik-sdk-connectivity-devel
dnf install libartik-sdk-lwm2m-devel
dnf install libartik-sdk-media-devel
dnf install libartik-sdk-sensor-devel
dnf install libartik-sdk-systemio-devel
dnf install libartik-sdk-wifi-devel
dnf install libartik-sdk-zigbee-devel
