About Custom Commands
Application custom commands allow application developers to expose functionality that can be interacted with via Predix Edge from within their applications. As developers create complex applications, they need to be able to expose their capabilities, send status information, deploy content, and issue commands into their applications from both Predix Edge Manager and Predix Edge Technician Console (PETC).
For Example, the analytics framework that leverages all the underlying infrastructure of application custom commands to expose that it supports the AnalyticEngine capability can deploy analytic templates or data maps, send status to Edge Manager, and issue commands such as Delete, Stop, and Start of a specific analytic into the application.
