OPEN COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK & API FOR THE INTERNET OF THINGS!
Visit SKYNET.im for up-to-the-latest documentation and screencasts.
======
SkyNet is an open source machine-to-machine instant messaging network and API. Our API supports both HTTP REST and realtime Web Sockets via RPC (remote procedure calls). We also bridge MQTT communications across our HTTP and Web Socket device channels.
SkyNet auto-assigns 36 character UUIDs and secret tokens to each registered device connected to the network. These device credentials are used to authenticate with SkyNet and maintain your device's JSON description in our device directory.
SkyNet allows you to query devices such as drones, hue light builb, weemos, arduinos, and server nodes that meet your criteria and send IM messages to 1 or all devices.
SkyNet includes a Node.JS NPM module called SkyNet and a skynet.js file for simplifying Node.JS and mobile/client-side connectivity to SkyNet.
You can also subscribe to messages being sent to/from devices and their sensor activities.
GigaOm - Listen to Stacey Higginbotham from GigaOm interview Chris Matthieu, the founder of SkyNet, about our capabilities, uses, and future direction.
Wired - ‘Yes, I’m trying to build SkyNet from Terminator.’
LeapMotion - Developer newsletter covers flying drones connected to SkyNet with LeapMotion sensor!
- Phase 1 - Build a network and realtime API for enabling machine-to-machine communications.
- Phase 2 - Connect all of the thingz.
- Phase 3 - Become self-aware!
Clone the git repository, then:
$ npm install
$ cp config.js.sample config.js
Modify config.js
with your MongoDB connection string. If you have MongoDB running locally use:
mongodb://localhost:27017/skynet
You must also modify config.js
with your Redis connection information. If you have Redis running locally use:
redisHost: "127.0.0.1",
redisPort: "6379"
Start the server use:
$ node server.js
