Edge SDK (Go) — Backend Services

edgesdk.NewEdgeClient builds client stubs for the three backend services alongside the EdgeAdapter gRPC server (see Overview) — access them via client.LiveData(), client.Connector(), and client.MissionAutonomy().

Live Data

LiveDataService (github.com/Zequent/zqnt-edge-sdk-go/livedata) manages persistent gRPC client-streaming connections and routes telemetry frames through them — one open stream per device serial number, reused across calls rather than redialed each time.

MethodPurpose
ProduceTelemetryData(ctx, *domains.TelemetryRequestData)Push telemetry using the POJO-style domain type; the SDK maps it to the proto request for you
ProduceTelemetry(ctx, deviceSN, *proto.ProduceTelemetryRequest)Push a pre-built proto request directly, for advanced/full-control cases
CloseStream(ctx, deviceSN)Close the persistent stream for one device
CloseAllStreams(ctx)Close every open stream — call during shutdown (client.Shutdown already does this for you)
client.LiveData().ProduceTelemetryData(ctx, &domains.TelemetryRequestData{
    SN:   "YOUR-DEVICE-SN",
    Type: domains.TelemetryTypeAsset,
    AssetTelemetry: &domains.AssetTelemetryData{
        Latitude:  &lat,
        Longitude: &lon,
        // ... see AssetTelemetryData for the full field set (mirrors the AssetTelemetry proto)
    },
})

domains.TelemetryType distinguishes dock/primary-asset telemetry (TelemetryTypeAsset) from paired-drone/sub-asset telemetry (TelemetryTypeSubAsset).

Connector

ConnectorService (github.com/Zequent/zqnt-edge-sdk-go/connector) is this SDK's old-API Connector surface — asset registration and organization lookup only, not the current-model Connector the Java/Python Edge SDKs and the Go client SDK's connector package expose. No scheduler or Mission/Task methods exist on it at all — see below.

CategoryMethods
AssetsGetAssetBySN, GetAssetByID, GetSubAssetBySN, UpdateAsset, RegisterAsset, DeRegisterAsset
OrganizationsGetOrganizationByID

Mission and task lookup are not part of the Go Edge SDK's connector client — unlike the Java and Python Edge SDKs, it has no GetTask. A Go adapter therefore cannot resolve a bare task id, which is why it can only take the command-based execution path (see Waypoint Missions).

asset, err := client.Connector().GetAssetBySN(ctx, "YOUR-DEVICE-SN")

Mission Autonomy

MissionAutonomyService (github.com/Zequent/zqnt-edge-sdk-go/missionautonomy) is likewise the old Mission/Task model's namesake, not the Application/Skill execution engine — but its surface here is a single read, not CRUD:

CategoryMethods
SchedulersGetScheduler

That is the whole surface: the Go Edge SDK's missionautonomy package exposes scheduler lookup only — no create/update/delete, and no mission or task methods at all. Creating and managing missions and tasks belongs to the Client SDK, used by customer applications.
