DietPi - Domoticz support feature request

Post by boschr »

To replace my NAS which is 24/7 on power for running Domoticz and has an average use of 25 watt I bought an Odroid C2. So primarily I want to run Domoticz on it, but next to it also a MQTT broker (Mosquitto probably) and Node-RED.

I invested a bit of time to do some research which Linux distro is the best for this solution. Never heard of it, but I found DietPi (https://dietpi.com/). The promises on their website looks great so I gave it a try yesterday. And now I’m really enthusiastic.

This distro is special designed for installing on a SBC (single board computer). And you can install a lot of common used apps with a single click. For example I installed the following apps in no-time yesterday: Docker, Vim, Git, Mosquitto, Node-RED, Samba, OpenSSH, Node.js.

Home Assistant is also one of those applications, but NOT Domoticz. Thats why I’m posting this topic. It’s possible to request a new feature/software to support on FeatHub (so I did today). Features with the most upvotes will be picked as first, so please upvote!

If you have Domoticz installed together with an MQTT broker, Node-Red and Certbot you have a really nice domotica setup (in my opinion). This is especially useful with the upcoming popularity of Shelly.cloud.

So again: please upvote and make it more easy to install and use Domoticz. People who don’t know much of Linux environment can easily install Domoticz and necessary apps. And our community will grow!
