JOD Distributions TEMPLATE

The JOD Distribution TEMPLATE is the starting point for Makers to generates custom JOD Distributions.

A JOD Distribution is a compressed folder that contains all libraries, scripts and configuration to run a JOD agent that represent a specific John Object. Generated distributions can be executed on local machine, deployed on remote objects or shared with other users.

JOD Distribution TEMPLATE LifeCycle diagram

A JOD Distribution, once executed, expose represented object's features to the John O.S. Platform Ecosystem.

Any Maker can create a new JOD Distribution simply extracting latest JOD Distribution TEMPLATE artifacts; and then configuring extracted files. After that, Maker can build, tests and publish his own JOD Distributions.

With JOD Distribution TEMPLATE makers can:

  • Create a full working JOD Distribution
  • Customize object's info, configs and structure
  • Choose the JOD versions to use
  • Add custom firmware files
  • Customize JOD Instance management

At JOD Distributions list page of the JOSP Docs, you can find many ready-to-use JOD Distributions. Depending on what you would integrate to the JOSP EcoSystem as an Object, maybe there is already a JOD Distribution for your needs. Otherwise, use them as examples for your custom JOD Distribution.
To publish your own distribution on this list, please contact us at tech@johnosproject.com.

Each JOD Distribution TEMPLATE can download and build a JOD Distribution using different versions of the JOD agent. Here the table of JOD Distribution TEMPLATE versions and corresponding supported JOD versions.
