Install and setup Domoticz usig docker container

Pre requirements

• have Linux or macOS
• installed docker
• installed git

Testing

In my environment this image tested and works in docker on QNAP

How use this image

Pull the image from Docker Hub

docker pull kadasz/image-domoticz

Build the image

git clone https://github.com/kadasz/image-domoticz.git
cd image-domoticz
docker build -t kadasz/image-domoticz .

NOTE! Is recommended to use docker pull instead of docker build because the building process takes a more time so download image from Docker Hub will be much faster.

Use the image from GitHub Packages

Pull image from the command line:

docker pull docker.pkg.github.com/kadasz/image-domoticz/image-domoticz:v1.0.0

Run a container

Simply way just run command below:

docker run -d --name domoticz --hostname domoticz -p 8888:8080 kadasz/image-domoticz /sbin/my_init

NOTE! If you want to use image from GitHub Packages, you'll need to add a tag also ie. docker.pkg.github.com/kadasz/image-domoticz/image-domoticz:v1.0.0

You can change the port 8888 to any other one.

With using persistent storage for domoticz home directory.

First, create the directory on host and set right permissions for it:

mkdir -p ~/domoticz/{logs,plugins,db}
chmod -R o+rxw ~/domoticz/{logs,plugins,db}

Remember, that you can change ~/domoticz/config as needed for your particular needs!

Next, crete a container hosting the volume mappings:

docker run -d --name domoticz --hostname domoticz --privileged -p 8888:8080 \
-v ~/domoticz/plugins/:/opt/domoticz/plugins \
-v ~/domoticz/logs/:/opt/domoticz/logs \
-v ~/domoticz/db/:/opt/domoticz/db \
kadasz/image-domoticz /sbin/my_init

Now, check that domoticz has started:

docker exec -it domoticz head /opt/domoticz/logs/domoticz.log

you will see output similar to below:
