go-mod-core-contracts

This module contains the contract models used to describe data as it is passed via Request/Response between various EdgeX Foundry services. It also contains service clients for each service within the edgex-go repository. The definition of the various models and clients can be found in their respective top-level directories.

The default encoding for the models is JSON, although in at least one case – DeviceProfile – YAML encoding is also supported since a device profile is defined as a YAML document.
