Building and Publishing a User-defined Message

API Used on this example

• Nimbus::PDS
• NimPostMessage from utils

Example

The Perl module Nimbus::PDS wraps the various PDS functions in the Nimsoft API function library.

The code example creates a PDS instance, adds some data to the PDS, then publishes the message onto the Nimsoft Bus with the subject “your_subject”.

use Nimbus::PDS

# Post trend-data onto the Nimsoft Bus
my $pds = Nimbus::PDS->new();
$pds->string("directory", "/tmp");
$pds->number("count", 33);
$pds->post("your_subject");

The PDS Class use the nimPostMessage method (you can find the API in utils section). So you can write the post by the following code as well :

nimPostMessage("your_subject", $pds->data);
