This is a collection of tutorials for the FIWARE platform. Each tutorial consists of a series of exercises to demonstrate the correct use of individual FIWARE components and shows the flow of context data within a simple Smart Solution either by connecting to a series of dummy IoT devices or manipulating the context directly or programmatically.

Docker Compose is a tool for defining and running multi-container Docker
applications. A series of *.yaml files are used configure the required
services for the application. This means all container services can be brought
up in a single command. Docker Compose is installed by default as part of Docker
for Windows and Docker for Mac, however Linux users will need to follow the
instructions found here
You can check your current Docker and Docker Compose versions using the following commands:
docker-compose -v
docker versionPlease ensure that you are using Docker version 18.03 or higher and Docker Compose 1.21 or higher and upgrade if necessary.
The tutorials which use HTTP requests supply a collection for use with the Postman utility. Postman is a testing framework for REST APIs. The tool can be downloaded from www.getpostman.com.
We will start up our services using a simple Bash script. Windows users should download cygwin to provide a command-line functionality similar to a Linux distribution on Windows.
Most tutorials supply a services script to start the containers:
cd <tutorial-name>
./services startEach tutorial submodule contains one or more docker-compose.yml files, along
with a Postman collection containing the necessary HTTP requests: import the
collection into Postman and follow the instructions.
Each submodule contains full instructions in README which details the appropriate bash commands (cUrl and Docker Compose) to run.
Full instructions can be found within the documentation
