CompanionPi is a prebuilt image for the Raspberry Pi 4B, setup to run Bitfocus Companion
This repository houses the tooling for building the images, only issues relating to the image building/updating should be reported here.
Prebiult images can be found on the Bitfocus website
Note: This has been written for arm64 images, and is not tested or supported on anything below a 4B. We do not recommend running it on anything lower, but you can follow the manual install instuctions if you are sure you want to.
Warning: This has only been tested on linux, but it should work wherever packer is supported.
This repository utilises packer to build images, using an arm-image plugin to add to an official raspberry-pi-lite image.
After installing packer, set it up for this project: packer init companionpi.pkr.hcl.
You can then perform the build with packer build --var branch=master companionpi.pkr.hcl. Be aware that this can be very slow, due to the cpu architecture emulation.
Once complete, the file output-companionpi/image can be written to an sd card and launched on a pi
