Shell scripts package to the containers native interface BalenaOS for the Raspberry Pi.
npm install balena-cloudWithin an open source application, like balena-sound, wifi-repeater, install this module:
``Shell`
#!/usr/bin/env bash
cd application
npm install balena-cloud
) take variable names %%templates_var%% that are replaced by ther value in
Make changes to the Dockerfile.template files.Initialize .env and package.json:
post_install
> It will scan for any Docker files in the sub-folders and reset package.json,
and files.$3
Complete common definitions:
`common.env
BALENA_PROJECTS=(MY/PATH MY/RELATIVE/PATH)
BALENA_PROJECTS_FLAGS=(BALENA_MACHINE_NAME MY_VARIABLE)
`
Define architectures:
An ARM computer units like Raspberry PI use (or aarch64.env if it's deployed on a 64 bits platform), desktop units are often x86_64.env:
`x86_64.env
DKR_ARCH=x86_64
BALENA_MACHINE_NAME=intel-nuc
IMG_TAG=latest
PRIMARY_HUB=docker-hub-balenalib-repo\\/container-servìce-image
`Test
Run unit tests on local host or CI npm test
$3
Docker Image dependencies are required to validate test units. Theses dependencies include build images needed by Docker based environments:
- Docker and cloud platform (BalenaOS, etc.)
- CircleCI, TravisCI, etc.
- Kubernetes and similar (Openshift, Micro-k8s, etc.)First login to Docker, if you already have an account or create one.
docker login
The folder
contains Dockerfile templates that maybe pulled from Docker. balena_deploy test/build/
Finally select the corresponding architecture
ARM32, ARM64 bits or X86-64 (choose 1, 2 or 3) and choose to build dependenciesIt takes a few minutes for the docker machine to pull, update local images and to push them to the repository. They take the name
and get a public URL at https://hub.docker.com/r/$DOCKER_USER/Deploy
Deploy to Docker or BalenOS, easy, choose targets: balena_deploy .
You can build locally:
docker_build .
In BASH scripts, use arguments:
Console
balena_deploy . x86_64 --nobuild --exit
balena_deploy . armhf --balena
