How to start the program

• In the project root run: docker-compose up --build -d
• Go to http://localhost:8080 for the frontend
• Run docker ps to see the container ID of the image aic_g4t2_iot_client
• Enter docker exec -it <ContainerID> /bin/bash to get a shell of the IoT-Client
• To start the simulated IoT-Client, run python iot_client.py -t

Alternatively you can use the provided Makefile:

• Run make start to start all containers
• The frontend should now be available at http://localhost:8080
• To get into the IoT-Client, run make iot (needs grep and awk)
• python iot_client.py -t will start the simulation

Technologies used

• Python 3.8.6 with Django for the backend
• Angular 9 for the frontend
• Dropbox API for storing images
• AWS S3 for object storage
• MongoDB for storing metadata

Detailed description of a usecase

Follow: How to start the program to setup the program. To simulate that a device sent some picture enter trigger into the iot_client. You can now see the pictures distributed over the different storages. Write set 0 to position the cursor to the first image sent. Issue update to update the image. The new image shows up in the dashboard and a new version in the corresponding storages is created. Navigate to the Map in the frontend and reload it to see a location marker where the image was taken.
