  • Page 24: Appendix I - Create Your Bluemix Service

    Appendix I – Create Your Bluemix Service Create a Starter Cloud Application These instructions assume you have already registered for an IBM Watson IoT account. 1. From your host computer, log into the Bluemix site, using the credentials you established in the lab pre-work.
  • Page 25 6. Click the CREATE button. You will see the staging message at the top of the page as follows: After a few minutes, the message changes to indicate the application has started running, as shown below. Depending on the volume of traffic to the site, starting the application can take anywhere from 2 to 10 minutes.

This opens a new tab in your browser showing the Node-RED cloud application development SDK. The default application shown below is made up of different types of nodes, each with different operational characteristics, and linked together to perform a logical circuit.

  • Page 27: Create A Cloud Service

    Create a Cloud Service Quickstart is a public service that allows anyone to make an unsecured connection to the sample application. However, now that we have a custom application, we want to provide a more secure access point, through the IBM Watson IoT broker service. Once the service is created, we can bind our application to it, so incoming data will be validated and then routed to your application.
  • Page 28 6. Accept the offer to restage the application by clicking the RESTAGE button when presented. Once the application is running, you will have a new Bluemix option for authentication, which can be used with the IIoT_Bluemx_Demo on the target. As before, this operation will take a few minutes (2-10) to complete. Page 28...

    Using the example above, the listing appears as shown here: The IIoT_Bluemix_Demo program automatically looks in its current directory for a configuration file, so when it is launched, it will adopt your configuration credentials. These could be hard- coded in an application, but it is more convenient to use a configuration file. Complete the Bluemix Application 1.
  • Page 35 2. In the left-hand panel, scroll down to the output nodes and drag and drop the ibmiot node onto Flow 1. Position the node to the right and above the safe node. 3. Click the bubble on the right side of the safe node and with the left mouse button pressed, drag the cursor over to the left bubble on your new IBM IoT node to make a connection between them.
  • Page 36 Make sure you capitalize JSON in the Format box. Click the OK button. 7. Click the Deploy button at the top right. 8.
