1. A deployment system for Internet of Things, comprising:
an edge server, having a database and a plurality of first agent modules, wherein the database records a script and a parameter of multiple function nodes;
multiple gateways, respectively connecting with different peripheral devices to support different function, each of the multiple gateways being configured with a second agent module, wherein the edge server respectively connects to the second agent module of each gateway through the plurality of first agent modules; and
a flow editor, arranged on the edge server, used to edit a flow of a target gateway of the multiple gateways, wherein the flow is consisted by multiple function nodes having a relationship with each other;
wherein, the edge server is configured to perform a deploying procedure to the target gateway, the deploying procedure obtains the script and the parameter of the multiple function nodes included in the flow from the database to generate a corresponding packet and transmit the corresponding packet to the target gateway through one of the plurality of first agent module, and the target gateway sequentially executes the script of each of the function nodes based on the flow to generate an execution result and transmits the execution result to the edge server through the second agent module.
