App Overview

This repo contains all necessary files needed to utilize the PawsIO app web app. This project utilizes an Intel® Gallileo Board, Intel® Edison Development Platform, and a Seeed Studio Grove Starter Kit. Your device must contain a compatible version of Node.js and must be accessible to the Intel XDK via a network connection.

Important Sample App Files

• main.js
• package.json

Important Sample Project Files

Tested IoT Node.js Platforms

• Intel® Galileo Board
• Intel® Edison Development Platform
• Intel® Joule™ 570x Developer Kit

Getting Started

• This setup requires the following sensors available in the Seeed Studio Grove Starter Kit:

  • Temperature
  • LCD RGB Backlight
  • Sound Sensor
  • Rotary Angle Sensor
  • 3-Axis Accelerometer

• Hooking up your sensors to your Grove Shield interface:

• Hook the following Sensors to the given ports as marked in the below table

Sensor	Port
Temperature Sensor	A0
Rotary Angle Sensor	A1
Sound Sensor	A2
3-Axis Accelerometer	I2C0*
LCD RGB Backlight	I2C3**

* far left I2C port

** far right I2C port

Running the Code

One you have all things connected, make sure to have your Intel® XDK IOT Edition properly installed and prepared to upload code by following along with this guide and this guide. Once the device has an wifi connection, we need to have two additional setup files.

Run the following command in your terminal:

$ npm run setup

This will create the two setup files were you must input your information needed to interact with PawsIO. In the files, write the following code:

// userinfo.js
module.exports = {
    username: 'insert username here',
    password: 'insert password here'
};

// petinfo.js
module.exports = {
    name: 'insert pets name here',
    animal: 'insert type of animal here'
};

These files will be prevented from uploading to git via the .gitignore file. The userinfo contains your unique user info attached to your PawsIO account and the petinfo is related to the specific pet you currently are monitoring when running the device.

After files are created, upload them to your IOT device via the Intel® XDK. Use the rotary angle sensor and turn it completely clockwise to start recording. To stop recording, turn the rotary sensory completely counter-clockwise and the data will be pushed to our database as soon as an internet connection is found. Have fun and enjoy connecting more with your pet!
