docker-eibd-rpi

Run eibd from BCUSDK on the Raspberry Pi. You can find a ready to run image on s10l/eibd-rpi.

If you want to build BCUSDK by your own, you can use my ready to run image to build the ARM binaries of BCUSDK for your Raspberry on your x64 machine running docker. For more information visit s10l/docker-eibd-rpi-build on GitHub or use the image s10l/eibd-rpi-build on Docker Hub

Due to Docker Hub's build architecture is based on AMD64, the Dockerfile injects /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow, /etc/group instead of using the useradd command. If you want you can build you own credentials, see mk-credentials.sh for details.

Running

chown 1000:1000 /dev/ttyAMA0
docker run \
	-rm \
	-d \
	--device=/dev/ttyAMA0 \
	--net=host \
	-p 6720:6720 \
	-p 3671:3671/udp \
	--restart unless-stopped \
	s10l/eibd-rpi

Parameters

Parameter	Value	Description
-rm	---	Automatically remove the container when it exits
--device	/dev/ttyAMA0	Add the UART device from host to the container
--net	host	Connect a container to the host network
-p	6720:6720	Publish the container's port(s) for eibd connection to the host
-p	3671:3671/udp	Publish the container's port(s) for ets connection to the host
--restart	unless-stopped	Restart policy to apply when a container exits
---	s10l/eibd-rpi	Name of the image

Note

The combination of -p 6720:6720 -p 3671:3671/udp and --net=host is suboptimal, because -p is bypassed if --net=host is used.

My prefered way is without --net=host, but i don't know how to supply multicast network ability in a docker container. If you have some good advices feel free to share.
