Tutorial for installing WeeWX Docker?

[Roelof Schuiling]

Is there perhaps a tutorial available for installing a Docker image for WeeWX?

I created a container from https://hub.docker.com/r/mitct02/weewx through Portainer (basically just pulling the image and linking a volume). It 's running, I can enter a terminal but I can't locate weewxd.

Is there some explanation available for Docker, perhaps a step by step tutorial?

Thanks in advance!

I would suggest asking the person who created that particular container.

There are lots of docker explanations and tutorials, likely 'thousands' if you do any google searching, if you're looking for more general tutorials.

I could probably write something up, but I should first look at what has already been done.  For example, I presume external DB and external syslog listener would be best practices, since the container itself is throwaway.  I'll think about it and see what I can come up with to streamline it.  =D

Hi, didn't see this. I am the one who built that Docker support, and have been using it for quite a while now for several sites. Happy to help.

I have been playing with this for some time. I have a base weewx image and then I have containers that extend that image and add config, customizations, etc. I run it all in Kubernetes on Google for pretty cheap.

I built it for me, but I am happy to work with someone if they want to help generalize it all.
