Made for netPI, the Raspberry Pi 3B Architecture based industrial suited Open Edge Connectivity Ecosystem
The image provided hereunder deploys a container with installed plain Debian Stretch.
Base of this image builds debian with enabled SSH and created user 'root'.
For remote login to the container across SSH the container's SSH port 22 needs to be mapped to any free netPI host port.
STEP 1. Open netPI's landing page under https://<netpi's ip address>.
STEP 2. Click the Docker tile to open the Portainer.io Docker management user interface.
STEP 3. Enter the following parameters under Containers > Add Container
-
Image:
hilschernetpi/netpi-debian-stretch -
Port mapping:
Host "22" (any unused one) -> Container "22" -
Restart policy" :
always
STEP 4. Press the button Actions > Start/Deploy container
Pulling the image may take a while (5-10mins). Sometimes it takes so long that a time out is indicated. In this case repeat the Actions > Start/Deploy container action.
The container starts the SSH service automatically when started.
Login to it with an SSH client such as putty using netPI's IP address at your mapped port. Use the credentials root as user and root as password when asked and you are logged in as root user root.
Use Debian shell commands as usual.
The project complies with the scripting based Dockerfile method to build the image output file. Using this method is a precondition for an automated web based build process on DockerHub platform.
DockerHub web platform is x86 CPU based, but an ARM CPU coded output file is needed for Raspberry systems. This is why the Dockerfile includes the balena.io steps.
View the license information for the software in the project. As with all Docker images, these likely also contain other software which may be under other licenses (such as Bash, etc from the base distribution, along with any direct or indirect dependencies of the primary software being contained). As for any pre-built image usage, it is the image user's responsibility to ensure that any use of this image complies with any relevant licenses for all software contained within.
