Prerequisits for Labs

Prerequisits for IoT Labs

Some of the labs have prequisits. Here's how to install them on OSX. For AWS EC2 AMI or Cloud9 use sudo yum install -y <app> instead of brew. For Linux use sudo app-get install --yes <app>. If using Windows, please try using Cloud9.

  • Homebrew, brew command, a MacOS package manager, install with /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
  • jq, a JSON cli filter, jq command, OSX install with brew install jq, Cloud9 install with sudo yum install -y jq
  • git, source code control, install with brew install git
  • HTTPie, http command, a modern CURL for HTTP, install with brew install httpie, see this httpie cheatsheet
  • AWS CLI, aws command, a command line interface for AWS services, install with brew install awscli then configure with aws configure and enter your AWS user's account "AWS Access Key ID" and "AWS Secret Access Key" from your AWS User and the AWS region you like to use, like us-west-2 for Oregon
