Express Mock Application Function

Introduction

This project provides a very simple HTTP server that implements two routes.

The first route m8.js is used to return information about the available services and the available base URL of the Application Function. The 5GMSd Aware Application uses this route as M8 interface.

The second route service-access-information.js provides the corresponding Service Access Information to the data that is returned via M8.

This server is intended to be used for development when static responses are enough to implement or test a new feature.

Downloading

The source can be obtained by cloning the github repository.

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/5G-MAG/rt-5gms-examples.git

Building

cd express-mock-af
npm install

Running

cd express-mock-af
npm start

The server is started on port 3003 per default.

To query the M8 information call http://localhost:3003/m8/m8.json.

To query the Service Access Information call http://localhost:3003/3gpp-m5/v2/service-access-information/<provisioningSessionID>, for example http://localhost:3003/3gpp-m5/v2/service-access-information/1 returns

{
  "provisioningSessionId": 1,
  "provisioningSessionType": "DOWNLINK",
  "streamingAccess": {
    "entryPoints": [
      {
        "locator": "https://livesim.dashif.org/livesim/testpic_2s/Manifest.mpd",
        "contentType": "application/dash+xml",
        "profiles": [
          "urn:mpeg:dash:profile:isoff-live:2011"
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}

To access the server from a mobile device or another machine replace localhost with the IP address of your machine.
