node-fmamsg: Sun FMA Message ID Library

Introduction

This library parses Sun FMA Message IDs of the following form:

ZFS-8000-HC

It validates the identifier and returns a hash:

{ name: 'ZFS', value: 16 }

Exceptions are thrown for malformed identifiers, checksum errors, etc. The library can also encode name-value pairs back into strings.

Installation

npm install fmamsg

Usage

var fmamsg = require('fmamsg');
 
/* Decode: */
var obj = fmamsg.decode('ZFS-8000-HC');
console.log('Dictionary = ' + obj.name + ', Entry = ' + obj.value);
 
/* Encode: */
var str = fmamsg.encode(obj.name, obj.value);
console.log('Message ID = ' + str);
