How to build a new gateway adapter to accept REST request?

[xuch74]

I have built some adapter like mqtt type, or REST client type. But now i meet a need to build a new gateway adapter to accept REST request from external app... I want to accept some watch like a mycontroller device, but the vendor only supply one way to supply the data, they need me to provide a https/http url, and they will provide the watch data through the url....

just to build a REST server to accept the request from the external app?

And the app has to use the username and pass word of the myController?

@xuch74 you have to create your own REST API server, that server should act as a REST-MQTT adapter.
On MyController create a mycontroller device type gateway with mqtt and add topic details from your adapter.
