Gateway Management Service

This service is used to provide configuration information for Carnegie Technologies' LoRa gateways.

The gateway requires this LoRa configuration information to function correctly and pass LoRa payloads to/from the cloud. Please note that gateways also require additional on-device configuration to connect to a cloud RabbitMQ and talk to this service.

This service listens for messages sent over RabbitMQ on the 'gw' exchange and responds with Gateway Config messages when the gateway sends either a configuration get request or a status update.

The response messages are configurable via environment varirables.
