HoneywellSecurityMQTT-Docker

An Alpine based Docker build of fusterjj/HoneywellSecurityMQTT.

Usage

This image defaults to MQTT Host location of 127.0.0.1 & port of 1883 with no user or password for MQTT either. If these defaults are acceptable for your use case, all you need to do is pull the docker image,

$ docker pull andrewchangdewitt/honeywell-security-mqtt

then run it with privilaged access & mapping the host usb & network to the image.

$ docker run -itd \
  --network host \
  --privileged \
  -v /dev/bus/usb:/dev/bus/usb \
  honeywell-security-mqtt:latest

Additionaly, it is recommended & set the --restart flag to make it easier to manage your security setup & I also like to name the container to make it easier to manage later by adding the --name flag.

If everything is running correctly, you should see something similar to the following when you check the container's logs:

$ docker logs honeywell-security-mqtt
>> Mqtt - set LWT message to: FAILED
>> Mqtt - connected
Found Rafael Micro R820T tuner
Successfully set the frequency to 345000000

Exact sample rate is: 1000000.026491 Hz
Successfully set the sample rate to 1000000
>> Mqtt - Message (1) published

Customizing configurations

If you have a different MQTT Host or Port, or use user & password settings on your MQTT server, you will need to customize the setup & build the docker image yourself. To do this, first clone this repo to a location of your choosing.

$ git clone [email protected]:andrew-chang-dewitt/HoneywellSecurityMQTT-Docker.git ~/honeywell-security-mqtt

Then, edit the file named mqtt_config.h with your configuration. For example, if your MQTT Host isn't 127.0.0.1, you would change line 3 from

#define MQTT_HOST "127.0.0.1"

to

#define MQTT_HOST "x.x.x.x"

where x.x.x.x is your MQTT Host address. Changing the username, password, or host port is the same. When done, use Docker's build to compile the image.

$ docker build ~/honeywell-security-mqtt -t honeywell-security-mqtt:customized

Then run this image, just like you would if you had pulled the default configuration from DockerHub:

$ docker run -itd \
  --name honeywell-security-mqtt \
  --restart=always \
  --network host \
  --privileged \
  -v /dev/bus/usb:/dev/bus/usb \
  honeywell-security-mqtt:customized
