HTTPS POST to mySQL on localhost

As long as the amount of data you have to store is less than about 256 bytes per second, and you have the ability to run node.js on a computer somewhere, it could be a regular Windows, Mac, or Linux computer, or even a Raspberry Pi, you can easily do this. Here’s a quick sample I wrote that shows how to store data generated by Particle.publish on the Photon/Electron in a MySQL database using node.js.
