Watcher IoT platform

The Watcher is a Java based desktop application where you can make users and see the attributes of different nodes and sensors.

Usage

User creation

Firstly user needs to be registered, following this the application will send a confirmation email with a verification link which needs to be activated before usage. If the email has not been verified, the user cannot be logged into.

Logging in

When the user has been registered and verified you are able to log in. The server responds to a successfull login with a session token, which the client will use for communicating with the server and gaining authorization to endpoints.

Nodes

A admin can create a new node to the database. User can subscribe to a node from which it wants data. The user table has a array in it which contains the ID's of the subscribed nodes. The node table has info on the node, but there will be a subtable which contains nodeID, timestamp and attributes.

Future implementations

Watcher should have the possibility to add friends to users friends list and possibly share their data.
