A Raspberry Pi wired Foosball table that uses the Watson IoT Foundation, Cloudant, and Node-RED

Getting the Code Running

This is a demo application so the bulk of the code is a series of Node-RED flows. We recommend running this application in Bluemix, but you can easily run it in any environment with Cloudant(CouchDB) and Node-RED.

Before you start to implement please review the instructions and bugs at our documentation page: http://slkaczma.github.io/iot-foosball

Key Components

1. Node-RED - The app runs Node-RED embedded in an Express application. Refer to server.js.
2. Twitter App Credentials - You need to create an app with Twitter to use the Passport OAuth Login for users.
3. Cloudant - noSQL database that stores the game and player data. The game database should be populated with two initial files totalGames and 1 to avoid errors in gameplay.
