Docker stack for getting started on IOT on the Raspberry PI

IOTstack

IOTstack is a builder for docker-compose to easily make and maintain IoT stacks on the Raspberry Pi.

introduction to IOTstack - videos

These are from 2019 and 2020. Though IOTstack has changed quite a bit, they are still a great overview

Andreas Spiess Video #295: Raspberry Pi Server based on Docker, with VPN, Dropbox backup, Influx, Grafana, etc: IOTstack

Andreas Spiess Video #352: Raspberry Pi4 Home Automation Server (incl. Docker, OpenHAB, HASSIO, NextCloud)

getting started

See Getting Started in the IOTstack Wiki. It includes:

• A link to Andreas Spiess videos #295 and #352.
• How to download the project (including constraints you need to observe).
• How to migrate from the older gcgarner/IOTstack repository.
• Running the menu to install Docker and set up your containers.
• Useful Docker commands (start & stop the stack, manage containers).
• Stack maintenance.

significant change to networking

After 2022-01-18 the menu has changed to use Docker networks differently. Users from before this need to do migration in order to add new services. In essence, just re-select all your services using the menu. If not done, docker-compose will give you an error like:

ERROR: Service "influxdb" uses an undefined network "iotstack_nw"
