How to use the docker image?

[igrokit]

Hello Jimmy, I downloaded your docker image and I have a weather.io API key. How do I get the docker container running with that key? I have unfortunately not enough programming knowledge to identify the right plase to enter that api key. thanks Dan

Hi Dan,

I've added an example on how to use it, using docker-compose. This is the easiest way since you need to start 2 containers.

• Copy the 2 files from examples/compose
• Adjust in the docker-compose.yml file with your own key
• docker-compose up -d

The application is still under development, so a few things to keep in mind:

• At this time, it can only serve the weather for 1 miniserver, multiple will be supported in the future
• The initial request from your miniserver will only be used to store the coordinates, and will not return any weather data. The next request (your miniserver does this every 60 minutes), it will return the weather data for those coordinates.

I don't get the point of the nginx container. Is it just to intercept the weather.loxone.com call? Why can't I just do the request directly on the php container, port 9000 which is where the request seems to be redirected?
