### Install
Clone the repo:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/Mainflux/mainflux.git
cd mainflux
```
Install Node modules:
```bash
npm install
```
Run Gulp Task:
```bash
gulp
```
### Docker
Apart from main `nodejs` Docker image, Mainflux also uses `mongo` Docker image (database instance is run in a separte generic Docker image).

```bash
docker-compose up
```
