IoT Tower alert we did on the last night of 2015!!
We make a tower alert that responds to github events:
- Github publishes repo events to a number of webhooks. But in reality, any service that speaks http can be used.
- AWS lambda receives the github webhooks and publishes MQTT events. python code
- Adafruit io provides a MQTT gateway.
- A little ESP8266 HUZZAH receives the MQTT messages and controls the red, yellow, and green lights of a tower alert. huzzah code
The live coding video can be found on youtube.
