Webhook server to receive RockBLOCK short burst data messages

rockserve is a webhook endpoint server for RockBLOCK short burst data messages sent over the Iridium satellite network.

Message processing has been customized for the PipeCyte project at the University of Washington. Parsed messages can be sent along to a downstream Prometheus server for visualization.

The server can be easily deployed on AWS EC2 using terraform.
