Setting up ...

• Clone, or fork the repo
• From the repo directory - type npm install ( to install node dependencies )
• You'll need a mongo database. I use http://compose.io, which is lovely to work with
• create a 'config' folder
• in the config folder place the following config.js file for the database config

module.exports = {
    'url': 'mongodb://<username>:<password>@mongodb352.aws-us-east-1-portal.21.dblayer.com:10352/cielo' 
};

• add a Watson IoT service pack to your Bluemix app *
• in the config folder place the following iot.js file for the iot config

module.exports = {
    "org": "<unique org id>",
    // ID has to be unique, https://docs.internetofthings.ibmcloud.com/applications/mqtt.html#/mqtt-client-identifier#mqtt-client-identifier
    "id": Date.now().toString(),
    "auth-method": "apikey",
    "auth-key": "<unique key>",
    "auth-token": "<unique token>"
}
