CGM Remote Monitor aka Nightscout for the Raspberry Pi 1/2. This images offers a node.js webserver containing the Nightscout Application Version 0.8.0.
This image uses the rpi-mongo image to run a mongo database on the Raspberry Pi: https://hub.docker.com/r/dhermanns/rpi-mongo
The image is created by using the Github Repository located here: https://github.com/dhermanns/rpi-nightscout
First of all, you need a Raspberry Pi 1 or 2. Install an operating system that supports the docker runtime. E.g. follow the instructions to install the nice hypriot os: http://blog.hypriot.com/getting-started-with-docker-on-your-arm-device/
Afterwards you should have a running Raspberry which is able to start Docker Container. What we additionally need is the docker-compose component. Using this tool we are able to fire up all that is needed to start Nightscout plus Mongo with just two command lines.
The steps needed to install docker-compose are documented here: http://blog.hypriot.com/post/docker-compose-nodejs-haproxy
The short story is - simply execute this command:
$ sudo sh -c "curl -L https://github.com/hypriot/compose/releases/download/1.1.0-raspbian/docker-compose-`uname -s`-`uname -m` > /usr/local/bin/docker-compose; chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose"
Clone this repository to your Raspberry. Execute
git clone https://github.com/dhermanns/rpi-nightscout
The above git-repository contains the Docker file to create a docker image and a docker-compose script to launch rpi-nightscout referencing the necessary rpi-mongo database image.
It is recommended that you add your own API Key. This key has to be entered into your Uploader Application. If you are using a Medtronic Pump, than you are using this application. You can edit your API Key by using e.g. nano editor
cd rpi-nightscout
nano docker-compose.yml
Remember that you have to provide a secret key that has to have at least 12 characters!
After cloning you are ready to start the Nightscout Application using docker compose
docker-compose up -d
Now you should be able to connect to your Nightscout Application by entering
http://<name-of-my-raspberry>:1337
in your Webbrowser.
To upload your CGM Data to your Nightscout system, this image is designed to use the REST-API Upload only! The internal Mongo Port is not exposed by default.
So let your Uploader point to the REST API located here:
<mysecretapikey>@http://<name-of-my-raspberry>:1337/api/v1/
And enter your Secret API Key that you have configured in your docker-compose.yml file.
!!!WARNING - the format is not documented on the arbox0 site and the format documented for the dexcom version of the uploader differs from the format above. But what's working for me with the arbox0 uploader is exactly the format above!!!
Congratulations - you should have a complete Nightscout System to monitor your diabetes data based on your local Raspi!
If you would like to use e.g. the MyBG Apple Watch App, you will have to activate HTTPS for the nightscout cgm remote monitor. To do this, first create a private key and a certification request for your node-server:
openssl req -nodes -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout server.key -out server.csr
Afterwards grab a free SSL-Certificate e.g. from this Certification Agency:
https://buy.wosign.com/free/
Download your server certificate and use the certificates contained in "for Other Server.zip". Create a certification chain in one file:
cat 3_user_my-server-domain.de.crt 2_issuer_Intermediate.crt 1_cross_Intermediate.crt > serverchain.crt
If you don't create the chain of trust in this way, your browser will complain about your certificate and the iOS and Apple Watch Apps won't work!
Then configure your docker-compose.yml and activate node to use your newly created certificates:
nightscout:
image: dhermanns/rpi-nightscout:0.8.0
environment:
SSL_KEY: /var/opt/ssl/server.key
SSL_CERT: /var/opt/ssl/serverchain.crt
I don't needed to add anything to the SSL_CA environment value. Take care that you change the URL in the uploader to HTTPS. Change the URL in all other devices e.g. Watches or Smartphones.
