frugal-iot-logger v1.0.11

Frugal IoT Logger

This is a library for a simple Mqtt Logger suitable for use with the Frugal IoT project.

Please see https://github.com/mitra42/frugal-iot for the full project.

It should be able to work with any MQTT server that allows websocket connections, but it is only (currently) tested against the Frugal-IoT mqtt server, which is mosquitto running at ws://naturalinnovation.org:9012

Example of usage with expressjs

The main example of the loggers use - that we test against - is in the frugal-iot-server repo

This combines this Logger with a simple HTTP server to serve up the logged data and user interface.

To install As a standalone server

Use in other projects

While this project was designed for the needs of the Frugal-IoT project, which uses a Mosquitto server and has a particular pattern of topics, we would welcome PRs to make it more generically useful to other projects. After all - the more people find it useful - the more bugs will get fixed.
