# LoRa Packet Forwarder Client

Enables communication with the [LoRa Packet Forarder](https://github.com/Lora-net/packet_forwarder) from Semtech.

The code is based on the [LoRa Gateway Bridge](https://github.com/brocaar/lora-gateway-bridge) which is also used in the [TTN Packet Forwarder Bridge](https://github.com/TheThingsNetwork/packet-forwarder-bridge) but targets a more generic aproach to talk to the Gateway, e.g. you can receive packets with wrong CRC and there is no dependencie to LoRaWAN specifics like `lorawan.EUI64`.

# Usage

Make sure you have a [LoRa Packet Forarder](https://github.com/Lora-net/packet_forwarder) configured

to communicate with the client endpoint. You can find example configs and code in `/examples`:

[usage.go](https://github.com/Lobaro/lora-packet-forwarder-client/blob/master/examples/usage.go) and

[local_conf.json](https://github.com/Lobaro/lora-packet-forwarder-client/blob/master/examples/local_conf.json)

```

func main() {

	client, err := gateway.NewClient(

		":1680",

		func(gwMac gateway.Mac) error {

			return nil

		},

		func(gwMac gateway.Mac) error {

			return nil

		},

	)

	if err != nil {

		panic(err)

	}

	defer client.Close()

	log.Info("Waiting for gateway packet ...")

	msg := <-client.RXPacketChan()

	log.Infof("Received packet from Gateway with phy payload %v", msg.PHYPayload)

	log.Info("Exit")

}

```
