       Setting up MQTT on pi and gateway
       By: guest135 Date: June 28, 2017, 7:03 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Hello,
       Let me explain my situation first, I've already successfully
       sent data to the losant web server using mqtt via the gateway
       with data from a mcModule 120 (it was very simple with great
       documentation), now my boss wants me to figure out how to send
       the same data to AWS,but from what I've found I can't directly
       publish the data due to the IOT certifications that AWS needs to
       accept data. I saw that you can use a pi as a "middleman" so to
       speak to receive the data from the gateway then publish it to
       AWS. I've installed mosquitto and the client runs ok (v3.1) on
       the pi but I do not know how to properly configure the gateway
       for this or what part of my code I should modify to make this
       work.
       So has anyone been able to successfully do something similar or
       am I missing something obvious?.
       Current code:

       I don't know anybody that uses a middle man on a pi.
       Maybe you should look into moving your data to CloudMQTT
       (powered by AWS) and move it from there.

       There were a couple of users that were discussing using Pi's as
       middle men - not sure the status of this.
       Anyone out there that has done this that can help Bernstein?
       As mcJohn mentioned, you can also forward the information to a
       service like CloudMQTT as an option. They do have a free tier
       and there are other ones out there as well. To help, you can
       check out this video that walks-through setting up CloudMQTT as
       a service. On this video we subscribe to the topic on an Android
       phone to view the data so not quite what you are looking to do
       but hopefully it helps a bit (CloudMQTT stuff starts around the
       0:50 mark)

       I'm using a pi to rebuild my temp capture platform, IFTTT just
       plain quit after the 0.9.xxx mc upgrades. Other than my issues
       posted elsewhere here, I am sending 'JSON" equivalent
       'ListOfByte' successfully to my pi.
       My plan is to use python libraries to captures the subscriptions
       and push them into PostgreSQL. It's all on my pi with a 128GB
       SSD. You might consider a middleman to push the data directly to
       a cloud hosted DB VS a cloud MQTT host and then to a DB.
