About GOOSER

Project @github https://github.com/anatoliyzhang/gooser

Currently this application consists of three parts: a web server (with Websocket) an agent(or more agents) and a client(Web Browser).

The modbus_rtu_agent application is to read data from devices via Modbus-RTU protocol, then send data to the server via Websocket connection.

The server application connects with the agents and clients(browsers). It receives data from agents, stores them to database, and sends data to clients(browsers) with some data visualization functions. It also handles instructions from clients, such as device management, display management.

This application is the open-sourced version of Goose 1.0, with a complete rewrite in Rust.
