[DEVWKS-2074] Cisco Live Workshop: create custom In-Room Controls and Macros for CE and Webex Devices

DEVWKS-2074 - Create custom In-Room Controls and Macros for CE and Webex Devices

This workshop is run at Cisco Live events in the DevNet Zone. Check the deck from past editions: Cisco Live Barcelona 2019

Join this workshop to go hands-on with xAPI (ie Webex Devices APIs and Cisco Collaboration Endpoint APIs). You'll learn to interact with a Webex Device from code, and implement an end-to-end In-Room Control by creating a custom interface and deploying Macros onto your device check the sessions details

In 45 min, you will learn to

• use a sandbox’ed RoomKit
• build a custom In-Room Control
• listen to events via ssh
• create your first Macro
• post to a Webex Teams space with the HttpClient command

Walkthrough

If you're new to Cisco Collaboration Devices, take this DevNet learning module.

Then:

• reserve a Sandbox'ed CE9+ Roomkit or use the training pod provided at your event (VPN to devnetsandbox-emea-gwy.cisco.com:20339)
• load and deploy the provided In-Room control
• connect via ssh and type

  xstatus UserInterface Extensions
  xfeedback register /Event/UserInterface/Extensions/Event/Clicked
  xfeedback deregisterall

• create and enable the provided JS macro

Step by step instructions

• Step 2
• Step 3
  • Step 3.1
  • Step 3.2
• Step 4

Tip: check the raw contents, these are ready to paste into a Webex Teams space

Step 0

Connect to your RoomKit

Sandbox VPN           : devnetsandbox-emea-gwy.cisco.com:20339
Sandbox user          : user01 user02 user03 user04
Sandbox password      : cisco1234
RoomKit IP            : https://10.10.1.171 172 173 174 …
RoomKit user          : admin
RoomKit passwd        : ciscopsdt

Step 1

Step 1.1

Open the In-Room Controls Editor.

Create a new Panel with a push button with id: 'DEVWKS-2074' or simply import the provided panel sample

Step 1.2

From the terminal, open a ssh session to your device (use PUTTY if on windows):

• ssh 10.10.20.17X
• user: admin
• password: ciscopsdt

Then type commands one at a time:

xfeedback register /Event/UserInterface/Extensions/Event/Clicked

When done, unregister with command:

xfeedback deregisterall

Step 2

Once the agenda In-Room control has been created, open the Macro Editor and create a new listen macro with the following script:

const xapi = require('xapi')

xapi.event.on('UserInterface Extensions Event Clicked Signal', (widgetId) => {
    console.log(`new event from widget: ${widgetId}`)
    
    // Add your custom logic
})

console.log('listening...')

Step 3

Step 3.1

We'll now configure your device to allow Http POST/PUT requests

Go back to your ssh session and type the commands below, one at a time:

xConfiguration HttpClient Mode: On
xConfiguration HttpClient AllowInsecureHTTPS: True

Step 3.2

Create another macro named push with the following script, and place your first name on the last line:

const xapi = require('xapi');

function push(msg, cb) {

  // Replace with your bot token
  const token = "YTJkZDlmZjAtMGM3NS00MDUxLWIzNzItNmU0M2I2MDE0ZGRmODcwMTExZGUtNzU0"
  // replace with a space your bot is part of
  const roomId = "Y2lzY29zcGFyazovL3VzL1JPT00vYmEzlkNDktZmI5NTAxNDlhODVl"

  // Post message
  let payload = {
    "markdown": msg,
    "roomId": roomId
  }
  xapi.command(
    'HttpClient Post',
    {
      Header: ["Content-Type: application/json", "Authorization: Bearer " + token],
      Url: "https://api.ciscospark.com/v1/messages",
      AllowInsecureHTTPS: "True"
    },
    JSON.stringify(payload))
    .then((response) => {
      if (response.StatusCode == 200) {
        console.log("message pushed to Webex Teams")
        if (cb) cb(null, response.StatusCode)
        return
      }
            
      console.log("failed with status code: " + response.StatusCode)
      if (cb) cb("failed with status code: " + response.StatusCode, response.StatusCode)
    })
    .catch((err) => {
      console.log("failed with err: " + err.message)
      if (cb) cb("Could not post message to Webex Teams")
    })
}

push('Hi, this is Steve! I am performing well so far...', console.log)

Step 4

Now disable the listen and push macros, and create a new workshop macro with the following contents:

const xapi = require('xapi')

xapi.event.on('UserInterface Extensions Event Clicked Signal', (widgetId) => {
    console.log(`new event from widget: ${widgetId}`)
    
    let markdown = buildMarkdownForSession(widgetId)
    push(markdown)
})


function buildMarkdownForSession(widgetId) {

    let markdown = `no session found for widget identifier: ${widgetId}`
    let session = sessions[widgetId]
    if (session) {
      console.log(`found session with id: ${widgetId}`)
      markdown = `${session.day}, ${session.time}, ${session.location}`
      markdown += `<br/>**\[${session.id}\] - ${session.title}**`
      markdown += `<br/>_${session.description}_`
    }
    
    return markdown
}

sessions['DEVWKS-2074'] = {

    })
}
