How to use with domoticz docker image

[kipusoep]

Hi!

The apt packages are not all available inside the official domoticz docker image.
Following the installation steps will work for the running container, but whenever it gets recreated, it'll be all gone.
So how could I use this with the docker image? I'm afraid that I'll have to create my own image based on the official image, or are there other ways?

And isn't it possible to have the wideq_state.json file inside the userdata folder? That would be much better for the docker setup, because userdata is a docker volume and thus accessible.

Hi @kipusoep!
I created an issue for that and will check if this is possible.
Thanks for this notice!

Hi @kipusoep.
I have played with domoticz and docker recently and found that both plugin and wideq_state.json file have to be under /userdata folder. Since that folder is a docker volume this will keep them safe while container re-creations. Also I've made changes (392f5c1) to the code to have state file in the plugin folder - no more moving after generation! 😄

Works now :-)
