Cloud IoT Core Python Samples

This folder contains Python samples that demonstrate an overview of the Google Cloud IoT Core platform.

Quickstart

1. Install the gCloud CLI as described in the device manager guide.

2. Create a PubSub topic:

   gcloud beta pubsub topics create projects/my-iot-project/topics/device-events

3. Add the service account [email protected] to that PubSub topic from the Cloud Developer Console or by using the helper script in the /scripts folder.

4. Create a registry:

   gcloud alpha iot registries create my-registry
   --project=my-iot-project
   --region=us-central1
   --pubsub-topic=projects/my-iot-project/topics/device-events

5. Use the generate_keys.sh script to generate your signing keys:

   ./generate_keys.sh

6. Register a device:

   gcloud alpha iot devices create my-python-device
   --project=my-iot-project
   --region=us-central1
   --registry=my-registry
   --public-key path=rsa_cert.pem,type=rs256

7. Connect a sample device using the sample app in the mqtt_example folder.

8. Learn how to manage devices programatically with the sample app in the manager folder.
