In this guide, we will walk through a Data Application and a simple example implementation of an IoT use case. Complete code for this guide can be found in the on Github. See the example.

Looking for additional detail on Data Application development? More information is available in .
In order to get started, install dependencies as described in the . You will need at least the global-l0, metagraph-l0, and metagraph-l1-data containers enabled in your euclid.json file for this guide.

Installing Templates with Hydra
1. List Available Templates: First, determine th`e templates at your disposal by executing the command below:
2. Install a Template: After selecting a template, replace :repo_name with your chosen repository's name to install it. For instance:
As a practical example, if you wish to install the water-and-energy-usage template, your command would look like this:
This process will set up a metagraph based on the selected template.
Within your Euclid modules directory (source/project/water-and-energy-usage/modules) you will see three module directories: l0 (metagraph l0), l1 (currency l1), and data_l1 (data l1). Each module has a Main.scala file that defines the application that will run at each corresponding layer.
Edit the send_data_transaction.js script and fill in the globalL0Url, metagraphL1DataUrl, and walletPrivateKey variables. The private key can be generated with the dag4.keystore.generatePrivateKey() method if you don't already have one.
Once the variables are updated, save the file. You can now run node send_data_transaction.js to send data to the /data endpoint.
Using the custom endpoint created in the data_l1 Main.scala routes method, we can check the metagraph state as updates are sent.
Using your browser, navigate to <your L1 base url>/data-application/addresses to see the complete state including all devices that have sent data. You can also check the state of an individual device using the <your L1 base url>/data-application/addresses/:address endpoint.
You should see a response like this:
To initiate a metagraph using a template, we provide several options in our . Follow these steps to utilize a template:
This brief guide demonstrates the ability to update and view on-chain state based on the Metagraph Framework's Data Application layer. Detailed information about the framework methods used can be found in the and in comments throughout the code. Also see additional break downs of the application lifecycle methods in the section.
