# WARNING - MIGRATION ONGOING
Mainflux project is being slowly migrated under [Abstract Machines](https://www.abstractmachines.fr/) company, created and fully owned by the main Mainflux author [@drasko][drasko].

You will find the current development on the [Abstract Machines GitHub](https://github.com/absmach).

Once migration and rebrand is fully finished, this repo will be archived and up-to-date info provided.

Mainflux is modern, scalable, secure, open-source, and patent-free IoT cloud platform written in Go.

It accepts user and thing (sensor, actuator, application) connections over various network protocols (i.e. HTTP,
MQTT, WebSocket, CoAP), thus making a seamless bridge between them. It is used as the IoT middleware
for building complex IoT solutions.

For more details, check out the [official documentation][docs].

## Features

- Multi-protocol connectivity and bridging (HTTP, MQTT, WebSocket and CoAP)
- Device management and provisioning (Zero Touch provisioning)
- Mutual TLS Authentication (mTLS) using X.509 Certificates
- Fine-grained access control (policies, ABAC/RBAC)
- Message persistence (Cassandra, InfluxDB, MongoDB and PostgresSQL)
- Platform logging and instrumentation support (Prometheus and OpenTelemetry)
- Event sourcing
- Container-based deployment using [Docker][docker] and [Kubernetes][kubernetes]
- [LoRaWAN][lora] network integration
- [OPC UA](opcua) integration
- Edge [Agent](agent) and [Export](export) services for remote IoT gateway management and edge computing
- SDK
- CLI
- Small memory footprint and fast execution
- Domain-driven design architecture, high-quality code and test coverage

## Prerequisites

The following are needed to run Mainflux:

- [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/install/) (version 20.10)
- [Docker compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/) (version 1.29)

Developing Mainflux will also require:

- [Go](https://golang.org/doc/install) (version 1.19.2)
- [Protobuf](https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf#protocol-compiler-installation) (version 3.6.1)

## Install

Once the prerequisites are installed, execute the following commands from the project's root:

```bash
docker-compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml up
```

This will bring up the Mainflux docker services and interconnect them. This command can also be executed using the project's included Makefile:

```bash
make run
```

If you want to run services from specific release checkout code from github and make sure that
`MF_RELEASE_TAG` in [.env](.env) is being set to match the release version

```bash
git checkout tags/ -b
# e.g. `git checkout tags/0.13.0 -b 0.13.0`
```

Check that `.env` file contains:

```bash
MF_RELEASE_TAG=
```

>`docker-compose` should be used for development and testing deployments. For production we suggest using [Kubernetes](https://docs.mainflux.io/kubernetes).

## Usage

The quickest way to start using Mainflux is via the CLI. The latest version can be downloaded from the [official releases page][rel].

It can also be built and used from the project's root directory:

```bash
make cli
./build/mainflux-cli version
```

Additional details on using the CLI can be found in the [CLI documentation](https://docs.mainflux.io/cli).
