Feature #883

Updated by Hammel 5 months ago

PiSentry devices will send a multicast query to ask for pistore addresses.    The response request comes with a unique uuid generated by pistore. uuid.    This query will be on a different port than Ironman multicast queries. 
 PiStore devices will respond with an Ack to the uuid calling used in the /registerStore API (like /register for Ironman, but specifcally for pistores). request. 
 PiStore picks the first response for session storage.    PiSentry PiStore then calls an API on PiStores's PiSentry's mongoose server to request hand PiSentry a place to store its files.    PiStore reserves a location (under directories marked for PiSentry use) by creating a directory with the PiSentry IP and responds with the mount point and directory name. 

 See piboxd for how to receive multicast messages (from IoT devices). 

 PiStore will create a device ID and session id under it's name and save files to <mount>/pisentry/<device id>/<session id>/<files>.    A unique name assigned by the user may be used instead of the device ID (see /etc/monitor for the DESCRIPTOR entered in imwww web UI).
