Store data on the dongle

Hello.
I would store some data on the dongle, not only get data from it. Is it possible ?
Thanks

The device already bufferes all data in a Redis DB, before uploading it to the cloud. As of now there isn’t anything available to keep it locally. But you can make it on your own. You need to hook into this file:

import cloud_cache
import datetime
import logging
try:
    import redis
    HAS_REDIS = True
except ImportError:
    HAS_REDIS = False

from salt.utils import jid


log = logging.getLogger(__name__)


__virtualname__ = "cloud"


def __virtual__():
    if not HAS_REDIS:

Alternatively you can make a new Cloud module under the Custom Modules section and add it to your device. You can get inspiration from the existing cloud uploader.
