It has also a contextual menu with a few usefull function like putting the mode id in clipboard or the entire browse path which can be used directly in you program: client.nodes.root.get_child(['0:Objects', '2:MyNode'])

What works:

  • connecting and disconnecting
  • browsing with icons per node types
  • showing attributes and references
  • subscribing to variable
  • available on pip: sudo pip install opcua-client
  • remember connections and show connection history
  • subscribing to events
  • write variable node values
  • gui for certificates
  • gui for encryption
  • call methods
  • plot method values
  • remember last browsed path and restore state

TODO (listed after priority):

  • detect lost connection and automatically reconnect
  • gui for loging with certificate or user/password (can currently be done by writting them in uri)
  • Maybe read history
  • Something else?
