This is bleeding egde software and WILL BREAK from time to time, you have been warned.

This package is dependent on the mist-api package, which currently is working with Linux x64, OSX x64 and Raspberry Pi, on nodejs v6.x only. To get it working you also need to run a Wish Core on the same host.

Prerequisites

If you ended up here by accident, you might not get this to work.

To access the GPS you need to access the MistApi. You may do that using a Mist Ui, Cli or programmatically using mist-api node.js package.

Option 1: Android Ui

An easy option is to install the MistUi Android app. You need the following apps:

• Wish - Peer-to-peer trustbased networking layer
• Mist - IoT layer for Wish

You may like to follow the instructions for the GPS specific Ui: https://github.com/ControlThings/mist-gps-ui-android, as they explain how to get it up and running. You only need to install Wish and Mist apk packages.
