Hello world with a secret
This example teaches you how to develop an Open Horizon service that uses secrets. Secrets ensure that login credentials and other sensitive information are kept secure.

Complete the prerequisite steps in Preparing to create an edge service. As a result, these environment variables should be set, these commands should be installed, and these files should exist:
echo "HZN_ORG_ID=$HZN_ORG_ID, HZN_EXCHANGE_USER_AUTH=$HZN_EXCHANGE_USER_AUTH, DOCKER_HUB_ID=$DOCKER_HUB_ID"
which git jq make
ls ~/.hzn/keys/service.private.key ~/.hzn/keys/service.public.pem
cat /etc/default/horizon
