We have a bunch of attributes that come in from our teltonika trackers which are deployed to customer vehicles. Many of these are used to generate custom attributes, such as GPS accuracy.
We will get around to making pull requests for many of these eventually into the Teltonika Decoder, but in the meantime, if I wanted to nullify the raw attribute after using it to compute into a custom attribute, what's the trick; just twiddle with the priority in another Computed Attribute that nullifies the raw attribute?
Example (I've chosen a simple one, not one I necessarily care about):
- Raw Attribute: io14
- Computed Custom Attribute: "simCardid"
I see no reason to have io14 listed in any of the position records with a raw value, as I know it is the SIM Card ID, and customers are just confused by raw values.
Yes, add another computed attribute to set the value to null. Make sure the priority is right.
Hah, it's been almost 10 months and I only just realised that much of this is being handled in the "Model" field. I thought it was somehow decoding this from the teltonika data.
Nope. All I have to do is name the model appropriately and many of these attributes are computed already. In my defense, the documentation is a bit lacking here.
And I need to now do a pull request to add a bunch more models into the Teltonika decoder. :D
