In order to demonstrate device services in Everyware Cloud (EC), gateway devices must be registered in the Everyware Cloud console. The following instructions describe how to register gateway devices with EC:

Configure Everyware Cloud (EC)

Create Users and Child Accounts

  1. Log in to ec-console with ec-sys/ec-password (or whatever admin credentials you have set up).

  2. Add a child account to use. "Child Accounts" → "Add". Take note of the "Account Name" because you will need this for registering gateways.

  3. Select the newly created Child Account in the top pane and click the Settings tab in the bottom pane.

  4. Select each service and select the "infinite*" setting and then "Save" for each of the following services: VpnConnectionService, AccountService, GroupService, DeviceRegistryService, TagService, UserService, and JobService.

  5. In the top right corner of the page click "Everyware Cloud Sysadmin @ec-sys" then "Switch to Account", and select the new Child Account that you created.

  6. Add users by clicking "Users" menu, then "Add".

  7. For each user that you create, select them in the top pane, and then assign a role by clicking on the "Role" tab in the bottom pane, then "Add". Select from the applicable roles.

Configure Everyware Software Framework (ESF)

Configure Cloud Services in ESF

  1. Log in to ESF Console (credentials sent via email)

  2. Click "Cloud Services" in left side menu.

  3. Under "DataService" tab, change connect.auto-on-startup to true then "Apply".

  4. Under "MqttDataService", change the following values: 

    broker-url = mqtt://ec-broker-mqtt.<project_name>.svc.cluster.local:1883/
topic.context.account-name = <Child Account Name created in EC>
username = <gateway username created in EC>
password = <password from EC>

  5. Click "Apply"

  6. Click "Connect"

  7. Click on the "Status" at top of left side menu and verify "Service Status" shows CONNECTED.

Note The broker-url parameter above assumes the gateway is a virtual gateway running in a pod. If you are configuring a physical gateway, you would use port 31883 along with the public IP address or host name: 
broker-url = mqtt://<node's public IP address>:31883/
