README

GOST (Go-SensorThings) is an IoT Platform written in Golang (Go). It implements the Sensing profile (part 1) of the OGC SensorThings API standard including the MQTT extension.

Implementation of the Tasking profile (part 2) and Rules Engine profile (part 3) of the OGC SensorThings API is planned as a future work activity.

The GOST website and blog can be found at www.gostserver.xyz

Binaries

Current release V0.5: 2017-07-17

Binaries are build for Windows, Ubuntu and OSX.

Roadmap

Date	Version	Features
2018-05-01	0.6	new dashboard (based on polymer/webcomponents) + bugfixes for locations

Benchmarks

For benchmarks see http://www.github.com/gost/benchmarks.

Run GOST with Docker-compose

For more information about running GOST with Docker-compose, see GOST Docker support.

For more information about running GOST in Raspberry Pi with Docker-compose, see How to run GOST on Raspberry Pi.

Run GOST Server in Docker

For making connection to external database use environmental variables GOST_DB_HOST, GOST_DB_PORT, GOST_DB_DATABASE, GOST_DB_USER, GOST_DB_PASSWORD

$ docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -t -e GOST_DB_HOST=192.168.40.10 -e GOST_DB_DATABASE=gost --name gost geodan/gost

For using your config own file, create a mount:

$ docker run -v myconfiglocation:/gostserver/config geodan/gost -config /gostserver/config/myconfig.yaml

Build GOST server Docker image

$ docker build -t geodan/gost .

Build GOST server for Raspberry Pi

note: building the Raspberry Pi image must be done on a Raspberry Pi :-(, otherwise errors will occur.

$ sudo docker build -f Dockerfile-rpi -t geodan/rpi-gost .

$ sudo docker push geodan/rpi-gost

OGC Compliance testing status

GOST is being tested against the OGC SensorThings API Test Suite 1.0 https://github.com/opengeospatial/ets-sta10

Samples

Apiary API Docs

HTTP API: For sample requests (setting up sensors/datastreams/things and adding observations) see the tests in the playground. For a complete collection of working requests install Postman and import the Postman file

MQTT: For getting started with Gost and MQTT for publishing/receiving data see GOST and MQTT - Getting started

Goals

• Complete implementation of the OGC SensorThings spec
• Test coverage!
• Frontend
• Benchmarks
• Authentication
• Different storage providers such as MongoDB (Now using PostgreSQL)
