## [Alpine-Blynk][234]
#### Container for Alpine Linux + OpenJDK8 + Blynk Server
---

This [image][233] containerizes [Blynk][135] IOT server,
a platform for visualizing/controlling microcontrollers like
Arduino, RaspberryPi etc that use their [library][138], over the
web, running under [OpenJDK][136] 8.\*.\*.

Based on [Alpine Linux][131] from my [alpine-openjdk8][132] image
with the [s6][133] init system and GNU LibC [overlayed][134] in
it.

**Auto updated according to the [Github][137] releases.**

The image is tagged respectively for the following architectures,
* **armhf**
* **x86_64** (retagged as the `latest` )

**armhf** builds have embedded binfmt_misc support and contain the
[qemu-user-static][105] binary that allows for running it also inside
an x64 environment that has it.

---
#### Get the Image
---

Pull the image for your architecture it's already available from
Docker Hub.

```
# make pull
docker pull woahbase/alpine-blynk:x86_64
```

---
#### Configuration defaults
---

* Blynk home is at `/opt/blynk`. User data is at
`/opt/blynk/data`. Mount this directory in local to persist
blynk configuration data.

* Default configurations for server and mail is provided right
inside the Blynk home directory as `/opt/blynk/server.properties` and
`/opt/blynk/mail.properties`. Edit or remount these files to use
custom configurations.

* By default, Blynk binds to the following ports :
* 7443: Administration UI HTTPS port
* 8080: HTTP port
* 8081: Web socket ssl/tls port
* 8082: Web sockets plain tcp/ip port
* 8441: Hardware ssl/tls port (for hardware that supports SSL/TLS sockets)
* 8442: Hardware plain tcp/ip port
* 8443: Application mutual ssl/tls port
* 9443: HTTPS port

---
#### Run
---

If you want to run images for other architectures, you will need
to have binfmt support configured for your machine. [**multiarch**][104],
has made it easy for us containing that into a docker container.

```
# make regbinfmt
docker run --rm --privileged multiarch/qemu-user-static:register --reset
```

Without the above, you can still run the image that is made for your
architecture, e.g for an x86_64 machine..

This image already has a user `alpine` configured to drop
privileges to the passed `PUID`/`PGID` which is ideal if its used
to run in non-root mode. That way you only need to specify the
values at runtime and pass the `-u alpine` if need be. (run `id`
in your terminal to see your own `PUID`/`PGID` values.)

Running `make` starts the service.

```
# make
docker run --rm -it \
--name docker_blynk --hostname blynk \
-e PGID=1000 -e PUID=1000 \
-p 7443:7443 -p 8080:8080 \
-p 8081:8081 -p 8082:8082 \
-p 8441:8441 -p 8442:8442 \
-p 8443:8443 -p 9443:9443 \
-v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
woahbase/alpine-blynk:x86_64
```

Stop the container with a timeout, (defaults to 2 seconds)

```
# make stop
docker stop -t 2 docker_blynk
```

Removes the container, (always better to stop it first and `-f`
only when needed most)

```
# make rm
docker rm -f docker_blynk
```

Restart the container with

```
# make restart
docker restart docker_blynk
```

---
#### Shell access
---

Get a shell inside a already running container,

```
# make shell
docker exec -it docker_blynk /bin/bash
```

set user or login as root,

```
# make rshell
docker exec -u root -it docker_blynk /bin/bash
```

To check logs of a running container in real time

```
# make logs
docker logs -f docker_blynk
```

---
### Development
---

If you have the repository access, you can clone and
build the image yourself for your own system, and can push after.

---
#### Setup
---

Before you clone the [repo][231], you must have [Git][101], [GNU make][102],
and [Docker][103] setup on the machine.

```
git clone https://github.com/woahbase/alpine-blynk
cd alpine-blynk
```
You can always skip installing **make** but you will have to
type the whole docker commands then instead of using the sweet
make targets.

---
#### Build
---

You need to have binfmt_misc configured in your system to be able
to build images for other architectures.

Otherwise to locally build the image for your system.
[`ARCH` defaults to `x86_64`, need to be explicit when building
for other architectures.]

```
# make ARCH=x86_64 build
# sets up binfmt if not x86_64
docker build --rm --compress --force-rm \
--no-cache=true --pull \
-f ./Dockerfile_x86_64 \
--build-arg ARCH=x86_64 \
--build-arg DOCKERSRC=alpine-openjdk8 \
--build-arg USERNAME=woahbase \
-t woahbase/alpine-blynk:x86_64 \
.
```

To check if its working..

```
# make ARCH=x86_64 test
docker run --rm -it \
--name docker_blynk --hostname blynk \
-e PGID=1000 -e PUID=1000 \
woahbase/alpine-blynk:x86_64 \
sh -ec 'sleep 5; java -version; cat /opt/blynk/version'
```

And finally, if you have push access,

```
# make ARCH=x86_64 push
docker push woahbase/alpine-blynk:x86_64
```
