Application for logging and displaying data from the IOT_Board project.

Prerequisites

• Git
• Ruby 2.6.5
• PostgreSQL
• An MQTT Broker

1. Check out the repository

git clone https://github.com/lbrnmdev/iot_monitor.git
cd iot_monitor
bundle install

3. Create and setup the database

Make sure PostgreSQL is running, then run the following commands to create and setup the database.

bundle exec rake db:setup

4. Start your MQTT Broker

Roadmap

• Testing!
• Device description and location data
• Allow for devices to log readings of any sort, not just temperature
• Allow for data/commands to be sent to subscribed devices
• User accounts so monitored devices are exclusive to a particular user
