Detailed Description

A sensor value stores a sensor reading as a string with unit and data type. The sensor value class can be used in the following way:

sensor_value_t ref_lock_sensor("Reference", my_lock, "unlocked", "locked"); std::cout << ref_lock_sensor.to_pp_string() << std::endl; //prints Reference: locked

sensor_value_t temp_sensor("Temperature", my_temp, "C"); std::cout << temp_sensor.to_pp_string() << std::endl; //prints Temperature: 38.5 C

◆ sensor_value_t() [1/6]

uhd::sensor_value_t::sensor_value_t ( const std::string &  name,
bool  value,
const std::string &  utrue,
const std::string &  ufalse 
)

Create a sensor value from a boolean.

Parameters
namethe name of the sensor
valuethe value true or false
utruethe unit string when value is true
ufalsethe unit string when value is false

◆ sensor_value_t() [2/6]

uhd::sensor_value_t::sensor_value_t ( const std::string &  name,
signed  value,
const std::string &  unit,
const std::string &  formatter = "%d" 
)

Create a sensor value from an integer.

Parameters
namethe name of the sensor
valuethe signed integer value
unitthe associated unit type
formatterthe formatter string

◆ sensor_value_t() [3/6]

uhd::sensor_value_t::sensor_value_t ( const std::string &  name,
double  value,
const std::string &  unit,
const std::string &  formatter = "%f" 
)

Create a sensor value from a real number.

Parameters
namethe name of the sensor
valuethe real number value
unitthe associated unit type
formatterthe formatter string

◆ sensor_value_t() [4/6]

uhd::sensor_value_t::sensor_value_t ( const std::string &  name,
const std::string &  value,
const std::string &  unit 
)

Create a sensor value from a string.

Parameters
namethe name of the sensor
valuethe real number value
unitthe associated unit type

◆ sensor_value_t() [5/6]

uhd::sensor_value_t::sensor_value_t ( const std::map< std::string, std::string > &  sensor_dict)

Create a sensor value from a map.

The map must have the following keys: name, type, value, and unit.

type must one of the following strings: BOOLEAN, INTEGER, REALNUM, or STRING (see data_type_t).

◆ sensor_value_t() [6/6]

uhd::sensor_value_t::sensor_value_t ( const sensor_value_t source)

Create a sensor value from another sensor value.

Parameters
sourcethe source sensor value to copy

Member Function Documentation

◆ operator=()

sensor_value_t& uhd::sensor_value_t::operator= ( const sensor_value_t value)

Assignment operator for sensor value.

◆ to_bool()

bool uhd::sensor_value_t::to_bool ( void  ) const

convert the sensor value to a boolean

◆ to_int()

signed uhd::sensor_value_t::to_int ( void  ) const

convert the sensor value to an integer

◆ to_map()

sensor_map_t uhd::sensor_value_t::to_map ( void  ) const

convert the sensor value to sensor_map_t

◆ to_pp_string()

std::string uhd::sensor_value_t::to_pp_string ( void  ) const

Convert this sensor value into a printable string.

◆ to_real()

Member Data Documentation

◆ name

std::string uhd::sensor_value_t::name

The name of the sensor value.

◆ type

data_type_t uhd::sensor_value_t::type

The data type of the value.

◆ unit

std::string uhd::sensor_value_t::unit

The sensor value's unit type. For boolean types, this will be the one of the two units depending upon the value of the boolean true or false.

◆ value

std::string uhd::sensor_value_t::value

The sensor value as a string. For integer and real number types, this will be the output of the formatter. For boolean types, the value will be the string literal "true" or "false".
