## Installation

### Dependencies

- libpcap

```bash

sudo apt install libpcap

```

- NodeJS (>= 8.0.0)

### 1. Get the code

```bash

git clone https://github.com/vergissberlin/amazon-dash-mqtt.git

cd amazon-dash-mqtt

npm install

```

### 2. Configure

- Copy the dist file ```cp config.dist.json config.json```

- Add your MQTT credentials in the *config.json*.

- Add the buttons, the message and the feed where to publish the MQTT message in the *config.json*.

- If you're using a broker without need for a token just leave it empty

```json

{

    "settings": {

        "broker": "mqtt://",

        "username": "",

        "token": ""

    },

    "devices": [

        {

            "mac": "",

            "feed": "",

            "message": ""

        }

    ]

}

```

    NOTE: If you're using Adafruit IO, then use

          "mqtt://io.adafruit.com" as "broker", and in "feed" use "/feeds/".

### 3. Start the application

```bash

sudo nano app.js

```
