Mainflux
About
Mainflux is modern open source and patent-free IoT cloud platform written in Go.
It allows device, user and application connections over various network protocols, like HTTP, MQTT, WebSocket and CoAP, making a seamless bridge between them. It is used as the IoT middleware for building complex IoT solutions.
Mainflux is built with <3 by Mainflux team and community contributors.
N.B. Mainlux is uder heavy development and not yet suitable for professional deployments
Install/Deploy
Mainflux uses MongoDB, so insure that it is installed on your system (more info here). You will also need MQTT broker running on default port 1883 - for example Mosquitto.
Installing Mainflux is trivial go get
:
go get github.com/mainflux/mainflux
$GOBIN/mainflux
If you are new to Go, more information about setting-up environment and fetching Mainflux Lite code can be found here.
Docker
Running Mainflux in a Docker is even easier, as it will launch whole composition of microservices, so you do not have to care about dependencies.
- Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/Mainflux/mainflux.git && cd mainflux
- Start the Docker composition:
docker-compose up
This will automatically download Docker images from Mainflux Docker Hub and deploy the composition.
System Architecture
Mainflux IoT cloud is composed of several components, i.e. microservices:
- Mainflux Core (HTTP API Server and Admin)
- Authentication and Authorization Server
- MQTT PUB/SUB Broker (and WebSocket Server)
- Mongo Database
- Dashflux UI
Docker composition that constitues Mainflux IoT infrastructure is defined in the docker-compose.yml
.
Features
An extensive (and incomplete) list of features includes:
- Responsive and scalable architecture based on a set of microservices
- Set of clean APIs: HTTP RESTful, MQTT, WebSocket and CoAP
- SDK - set of client libraries for many HW platforms in several programming languages: C/C++, JavaScript, Go and Python
- Device management and provisioning and OTA FW updates
- Highly secured connections via TLS and DTLS
- Enhanced and fine-grained security via Reverse Proxy, OAuth 2.0 identity management and RBAC Authorization Server.
- LwM2M standard compliance
- oneM2M adapter
- Easy deployment and high system scalability via Docker images
- Clear project roadmap, extensive development ecosystem and highly skilled developer community
- And many more
