Mainflux is modern, scalable, secure open source and patent-free IoT cloud platform written in Go.
It accepts user, device, and application connections over various network protocols (i.e. HTTP,
MQTT, WebSocket, CoAP), thus making a seamless bridge between them. It is used as the IoT middleware
for building complex IoT solutions.

## Quickstart
#### Docker
To start the docker composition, execute the [startup script](bin/mainflux-docker.sh) from `bin`
directory:
```
./mainflux-docker.sh start
2016-04-29 04:16:01 +08:00
```
If the command successfully completes, you can verify that the all images are up & running by
executing the following command in the terminal window:
```
docker ps
```
2016-04-29 04:19:08 +08:00
The composition can be terminated in the following way:
2016-04-29 04:07:16 +08:00
```
./mainflux-docker.sh stop
```
#### From sources
To download all the sources, and place them in appropriate locations (i.e. $GOPATH), use the
[installation script](bin/mainflux-install.sh). Once it completes, the script will provide the
instructions on how to finish the manual installation (i.e. install the required infrastructure).
