Clarification on Databases

[sabamerchant]

Does anyone have more information of whether a database for F’ exists? If not a database, a compiled list of command and telemetry data

I have read conflicting information of a database needing to be made, but also a few components that have similar functionalities. Would anyone be able to clarify if there is a document or a place in the code where this would be?

Thank you!

@sabamerchant From what I understand, the commands and telemetry (and event messages) are defined on a per-component basis. So if you want to see what telemetry, commands, etc. are available, there should be something in the .fpp file for each component (like the Math Component), then the handler is in the component .cpp file. The FPP guide has more info on the .fpp version of this.

Once you've build the application, there should be an .xml file in /build-artifacts//dict with everything command, telemetry, and event in the application (all the components) ; that's the file that's read by fprime-gds.

Hope that helps!
