Example node definition

A full node definition in config.json looks like the block below. Paste it under the sources key of your config, keyed by the node’s instance name (any identifier; it doesn’t have to match the node ID).

{
  "sources": {
    "optical_cpp": {
      "outEndpoint": "inproc://optical_cpp_data",
      "type": "DTrack",
      "settings": {
        "type": "DTrack"
      }
    }
  }
}

Field reference

Field	Purpose
`outEndpoint`	ZMQ / inproc endpoint this source binds to publish its output. The runtime auto-generates one if omitted.
`type`	Subtype / backend selector. See the Subtypes section above for valid values.
`settings`	All user-configurable fields — see the Properties table above.

Connections can also be declared at the top-level connections array when settings.explicitConnections is true, as an alternative to filling inputEndpoints on each node.
