How can I generate a server AddressSpace from a XML nodeset file?

Question

I am getting familiar with the node-opc-ua project and I want to generate a servers address space from a given nodeset (xml file) automatically.

Is there a possibility?

Answer 1

You can specify more than one nodeset2.xml files to load to enrich the address space. Here is a simplified example.

var opcua = require("node-opcua");

var nodeset_filename1 ="CustomAddressSpaceNodeset2.xml";
var nodeset_filename2 ="OtherCustomAddressSpaceNodeset2.xml";

var server_options = {
   /* [...] */
   nodeset_filename: [
     opcua.nodesets.standard_nodeset_file,
     nodeset_filename1,
     nodeset_filename2 
   ]
   /*  other server options here */
};

var server = new opcua.OpcuaServer(server_options);

server.start(function (err) {
});
