There exists a script to install hub server and an example. It requires a path where to install the pubsub server. Don't worry, the server is a standalone version and does not care about where it is located. So to keep it simple, you could "install" it in the pubsub extension folder.

cd /folder/to/ow/extensions/pubsub/
sh scripts/install_hub_server.sh pubsubserver

When you execute this the server will be installed in the folder /folder/to/ow/extensions/pubsub/ pubsubserver.
