File-Based Packages

File-based packages are supported on the ThingWorx Edge MicroServer (EMS) and C SDK. For more information, see the ThingWorx Edge MicroServer (EMS) and Lua Script Resource (LSR) Help Center and the ThingWorx Edge C SDK, SCM Edge Extension, and Remote Session Edge Extension for the C SDK Help Center.

File-based packages include a script file that contains installation and roll-back instructions. A Wait instruction allows you to set a time period during which certain conditions must be met before the instructions are executed. However, not all devices can process these instructions.

For file-based packages, the Lua script file is supported. For more information, see Lua Script for File-Based Packages.
