Container is based on debian stretch. Domoticz and Openzwave are built from source

⁠Prerequisites

1. Install Docker⁠.

⁠Running

This container exposes port 8080 for Domoticz. This port is HTTP, if you need HTTPS, please use a reverse proxy like Nginx.

Container exposes also config folder which contains three subfolders :

db-log contains domoticz database (domoticz.db) and log file (domoticz.log)

default-cfg contains all domoticz default configuration files. This folder is updated each time container is started. Do not put any user parameters in this folder.

add-cfg contains all user configuration. All files in this folder overwrites default configuration files from Domoticz. To modify a configuration file, copy it from default-cfg to add-cfg folder. Edit the file in add-cfg folder. At next container start, it will be used by Domoticz.

Container exposes /src/domoticz/scripts. It allows user to add custom scripts to Domoticz. By default, this volume is populated with Domoticz default content located in /scripts folder.

TIMEZONE environment variable should be updated by user to allow correct time display in Domoticz. Expected format is Linux standard "Europe/Paris" for example.

PYPACKAGES environment variable allow to install aditional Python packages via pip command. Value can be "requests pyinstaller" for example.

Default command line should look like this :

docker run -ti -p 8080:8080 --name my-domoticz-container -v myconfigvolume:/config -v myscriptvolume:/src/domoticz/scripts -e TIMEZONE='Europe/Paris' -e PYPACKAGES='requests' konilabs/domoticz
