For an overview of Waggle visit https://wa8.gl/

• OS: Linux, OSX

Installation guides for Docker https://docs.docker.com/install/)

git clone https://github.com/waggle-sensor/beehive-server
cd beehive-server

Optional: The default location for persistent data is the data subfolder. If you want to change this, define the BEEHIVE_ROOT. See next section for further documentation.

export BEEHIVE_ROOT=`pwd`/data     # this exmaple is the default 

Start beehive:

./do.sh deploy

By default all your beehive data be stored in a data/ subfolder in your checked out git repository. This data directory will contain:

1. Databases
2. Nodes Keys
3. Beehive Keys
4. RMQ data

If you remove this directory you loose all persistent stuff. The incoming data from the nodes also gets stored under this directory.

To change location of your data folder, set the BEEHIVE_ROOT variable, e.g.

export BEEHIVE_ROOT=${HOME}/beehive-server-data

(Pro tip: store the beehive variable in you ~/.bashrc or similar)
