Provide pre-configured Pi image #506

Open mKeRix opened 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The install process can be quite lengthy for manual NodeJS installs and some things may go wrong.

Describe the solution you'd like It would be nice to have a pre-built image available for Pi Zeros, where you just configure your WiFi and room-assistant config. Everything else should already be pre-installed. The config should be read from the boot partition, as that is where you usually put things for headless setup.

given everyone is using multiple pis is there any device to run a webui on the primary that can connect to the satellites (maybe even a small docker container that is the controller? and maybe in the future that then becomes the ML container?)

gbdavidx commented 3 years ago

Yes. Read the docs and you’ll find your answer

I could be being stupid, but I cant see a web UI (other than API)? is there a dev version i'm not seeing?

gbdavidx commented 3 years ago

You don’t need a webui...

@jaburges I think what @gbdavidx is referring to is the Ansible setup, which is CLI only. What you are describing sounds more like #261 for me though. Currently there is no easy to use solution for this... I would like to have something more user-friendly here, but I have a quite a few other things on the roadmap that I would want to tackle before that.

As an alternative: I know that you can use Rundeck, which would give you a web UI on top of Ansible. I haven't tried it though and I suspect that it doesn't really make things easier for room-assistant setups.
