Route Topic Wildcards

[nonoski]

Hi all,

When creating a route I want to use a wildcard in my topic. For instance, I have two boards: devBoard1 and devBoard2. I’d like the same route on both and will add more boards with thee same name in the future, like devBoard3, etc. It seems I cannot use the topic: “devBoard*” and have it trigger the route?

How can I create a route where I do not have the exactly specify the device name, etc?

Thanks!

Any ideas here?

Unfortunately we don’t support wildcards in that way right now. (We do support a * wildcard that matches every topic but that’s probably not what you want)

I’d suggest making your device send a custom topic to do what you want.

With the Hologram Nova CLI you can do this with hologram send -t <topic> <message>
