Notifications Release

This release deploys the notification service as an application onto the CloudFoundry platform. A running CF is required to deploy. The application will be deployed into the system org, and the notifications-service space. The service registers itself at the address matching http://notifications.$CF_APP_DOMAIN.

Prerequisites

1. Running UAA. This requirement is typically satisfied by having CloudFoundry deployed.
2. Running MySQL instance. One option is to deploy the CloudFoundry MySQL release.

Notifications requires a UAA client to boot. The client can be created with the following properties:

scope: uaa.none
client_id: notifications
