My Internet Of Things - miot

A simple but complete Web platform for you to create IoT / Physical Web oriented content. Beacons can provide an additive second-screen experience for visitors in a lot of contexts or places. This platform allows you to easily create optimized content for mobile devices with different templates and layouts. That means : you can propose a unique experience for users / visitors / curious people by defining places, events and points of interest and attach attractive content to it.

How to deploy

The docker way

First, create a docker.env file containing the environment vars :

Do not change the MIOT_DB_HOST value !

MIOT_DB_NAME=miot
MIOT_DB_USER=miotuser
MIOT_DB_PASSWORD=password
MIOT_DB_HOST=db
MIOT_SECRET=YOUR_DJANGO_SECRET_KEY_HERE
MIOT_GOOGLEMAP=YOUR_GOOGLE_MAP_API_KEY_HERE

Then all you got to do is docker-compose up

Manual local deployment

Physical Web, feed it with good content

The concept of the Physical Web is to stream simple URLs using Beacons. The main advantage is that users do not need a specific app anymore. This technology is supported by default on Android devices, all you need is to have a Beacon configured to stream your URL and you are ready to go !

The question is what URL do I stream with my Beacon ? What content will be attached to my point of interest ?

A wikipedia page ? - Nah, it's too technical and basique

A youtube video ? - Meh, you don't know if they will watch it... and it's too loudy

A website homepage ? - Totally out of context

What about a good miot Physical Web optimized page ? - Great idea !
