Magistrala 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. For extra bits and services see our contrib repository.

Features

  • Multi-protocol connectivity and bridging (HTTP, MQTT, WebSocket and CoAP; see contrib repository for LoRa and OPC UA)
  • Device management and provisioning (Zero Touch provisioning)
  • Mutual TLS Authentication (mTLS) using X.509 Certificates
  • Fine-grained access control (policies, ABAC/RBAC)
  • Message persistence (Timescale and PostgresSQL - see contrib repository for Cassandra, InfluxDB, and MongoDB support)
  • Platform logging and instrumentation support (Prometheus and OpenTelemetry)
  • Event sourcing
  • Container-based deployment using Docker and Kubernetes
  • Edge Agent and 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 Magistrala:

Developing Magistrala will also require:

Install

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

docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml --env-file docker/.env -p git_github_com_absmach_magistrala_git_  up

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

make run

If you want to run services from specific release checkout code from github and make sure that MG_RELEASE_TAG in .env is being set to match the release version

git checkout tags/<release_number> -b <release_number>
# e.g. `git checkout tags/0.13.0 -b 0.13.0`

Check that .env file contains:

MG_RELEASE_TAG=<release_number>

docker-compose should be used for development and testing deployments. For production we suggest using Kubernetes.

Usage

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

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

make cli
./build/cli version

Additional details on using the CLI can be found in the CLI documentation.
