It allows you to access VSS data from KUKSA databroker using an Android System.
The KUKSA Android SDK allows you to interact with [VSS data](https://covesa.github.io/vehicle_signal_specification/)
from the [KUKSA Databroker](https://github.com/eclipse/kuksa.val/tree/master/kuksa_databroker)

Probably also better to link here to the main page, instead of the sub page:

I am a little bit disagreeing here because everyone would just go instantly to the sub link from the main page. Feels more like the right entry point to me.

Removed the last sentence and linked to GitHub packet

within an Android App. The main functionality consists of fetching, updating and subscribing to VSS data.

## Integration

*build.gradle*
```
implementation("org.eclipse.kuksa:kuksa-sdk:<VERSION>")
```

Snapshot builds are also available (but of course less stable): [Package view](https://github.com/eclipse-kuksa/kuksa-android-sdk/packages/1986280/versions)

See the [quickstart guide](https://github.com/eclipse-kuksa/kuksa-android-sdk/tree/main/docs/QUICKSTART.md) for
additional integration options.

### GitHub packages

The KUKSA SDK is currently uploaded to [GitHub packages](https://docs.github.com/en/packages/working-with-a-github-packages-registry/working-with-the-gradle-registry)
where an [authentication](https://docs.github.com/en/packages/working-with-a-github-packages-registry/working-with-the-gradle-registry#authenticating-to-github-packages)
is needed to download the dependency.

```
maven {
url = uri("https://maven.pkg.github.com/eclipse-kuksa/kuksa-android-sdk")
credentials {
username = <USERNAME>
password = <GITHUB_TOKEN>
}
}
```

## Usage

> [!NOTE]
> The following snippet expects an **unsecure** setup of the Databroker. See the [quickstart](https://github.com/eclipse-kuksa/kuksa-android-sdk/blob/main/docs/QUICKSTART.md) guide

> for instructions on how to establish a **secure** connection to the Databroker.

```kotlin
private var dataBrokerConnection: DataBrokerConnection? = null

fun connectInsecure(host: String, port: Int) {
lifecycleScope.launch {
val managedChannel = ManagedChannelBuilder.forAddress(host, port)
.usePlaintext()
.build()

val connector = DataBrokerConnector(managedChannel)
dataBrokerConnection = connector.connect()
// Connection to the Databroker successfully established
} catch (e: DataBrokerException) {
// Connection to the Databroker failed
}
}
```

```kotlin
fun fetch() {
lifecycleScope.launch {
val property = Property("Vehicle.Speed", listOf(Field.FIELD_VALUE))
val response = dataBrokerConnection?.fetch(property) ?: return@launch
val entry = entriesList.first() // Don't forget to handle empty responses
val value = entry.value
val speed = value.float
}
}
```

Refer to the [quickstart guide](https://github.com/eclipse-kuksa/kuksa-android-sdk/tree/main/docs/QUICKSTART.md) or
[class diagrams](https://github.com/eclipse-kuksa/kuksa-android-sdk/blob/main/docs/kuksa-sdk_class-diagram.puml) for
further insight into the KUKSA SDK API. You can also checkout the [sample](https://github.com/eclipse-kuksa/kuksa-android-sdk/tree/main/samples) implementation.

## Requirements

- A working setup requires at least a running KUKSA [Databroker](https://github.com/eclipse/kuksa.val/tree/master/kuksa_databroker)
- Optional: The [KUKSA Databroker CLI](https://github.com/eclipse/kuksa.val/tree/master/kuksa_databroker) can be used to manually feed data and test your app.
See [this chapter](https://github.com/eclipse/kuksa.val/tree/master/kuksa_databroker#reading-and-writing-vss-data-using-the-cli) on how to read and write data via the CLI.
- Optional: The [Mock Service](https://github.com/eclipse/kuksa.val.services/tree/main/mock_service) can be used to simulate a "real" environment.
