Dynamically rendering an application programming interface for internet of things applications

摘要

A schema server receives from an application server vendor ID, solutions ID, and version fields extracted from a universally unique identifier (UUID) of a node and defining a protocol agnostic metadata schema application descriptor sheet identifier (PAMS ADS ID). The schema server retrieves from the memory a protocol agnostic metadata schema application descriptor sheet (PAMS ADS) that contains a list of property-type pairs and corresponds to the PAMS ADS ID, and sends the PAMS ADS to a host services gateway such that the host services gateway, using the PAMS ADS, establishes communications with the node and exposes an interface of the node as a web application programmer's interface (API).
