LG01-P Linux Script to AWSIot

#!/bin/sh

#when connecting to AWSIOT , a cert , privatekey and certificate authority file is required . 
#after downloading the cert files when creating a thing , it is possible rename the files so that it is easier to
#call the file when writing the script and cli 
#also note that aws things shadow update requires message to be in json to update 
#to catch messages sent to things but are rejected due to improper json format ,  subscribe to things shadow update through mqtt. 
# do remember to check the activity page for the AWsiot " thing" u have created to see whether the message is accepted or rejected

#the $1 refers to the additional data sent from arduino code ( the add parameter command )

# type in linux shell with mosquitto cli installed  
# -h is the url of the broker , -t is the topic 
# -d enable debug messages to show what is going on in mosquitto cli
# for both -h and -t of sub client it is possible to set it as a variable in the script and call the variable instead of typing everything on a single line

Trivial demonstrations rarely get the acclaim they deserve.
