Provide a Docker images
Make it easier for people to get up and running by creating a Docker image for them.
Assuming noone else has looked into this, I'm getting into it right now and can send a PR when I'm done.
I'm working on moving to Docker myself, and have built a Docker image for the node-proxy for Raspberry Pi. Haven't tested it except with the generic plugin but here it is:
https://hub.docker.com/r/tcjennings/rpi-smartthings-nodeproxy/
To run it you should create a config.json somewhere on your host, then:
docker run -itd -p 8080:8080 -e ENABLED_PLUGINS="generic" \
-v /path/to/config.json:/sntp/config.json \
--device /dev/ttyUSB0 \
tcjennings/rpi-smartthings-nodeproxy:latest
The ENABLED_PLUGINS should be a space-separated list of the plugin names to enable (without the .js extension). I think you need Docker 1.12 for the --device directive, which is necessary to give the container control of the USB serial port.
Probably want a restart policy and a friendly name too. I'm going to work on a docker-compose file to make execution trivial.
Edit: I made the docker-compose.yml file. See https://github.com/tcjennings/docker-build/tree/master/rpi-smartthings-nodeproxy.
I just migrated my production Pi to use Docker and it works. I'd never done the hardware device pass-through in a container before so I wasn't sure how it'd go. Seems fine. I used the compose file to fire it up, and used my existing working config.json. Compose does all the heavy lifting.
