Simulate IoT for AWS IoT_Core

Script to simulate IoT devices to connect with AWS IoT core. If your device (is not unix based) doesn't support bash shell script file , look into the makeiot.sh file and run the commands on your own. It requires npm to be installed on the device.

Download the below two files

1. iot_simulator.js
2. makeiot.sh

Make a folder cert. Open the file iot_simulator.js and edit the path, hostName and topic.

Move these files (from aws iot) to the folder cert

1. Certificate with name : 'iot_thing-certificate.pem.crt'.
2. Private key with name : 'iot_thing-private.pem.key'.
3. Root CA with name : 'AmazonRootCA1.cer

Open terminal

1. Go to the folder.
2. run chmod +x makeiot.sh to make script executable.

Check if all the required files are in the same folder with proper names

Now run ./makeiot.sh and enjoy

Thanks
