- Latest openHAB release running on a Raspberry Pi 4 as a docker container.
- Automated installation out of this repository.
- Raspberry Pi 4 B, 4x 1,5 GHz, 4 GB RAM, WLAN, BT
- Raspberry 4596 Pi - official power supply for Raspberry Pi 4 Model B, USB-C, 5.1V, 3A
- RPI CASE ALU08 (got it from here)
- JSAUX USB 3.0 SATA Adapter (got it from here, found it on this list)
- Some Micro SD card
- Some SATA SSD disk, e.g. 128 GBytes (optional in case of booting from USB)
- Follow the official description to get Raspberry OS Lite onto the SD card and configure it according to your needs (user account, ssh, WiFi, etc.)
- Boot the Raspberry Pi and login.
- For robustness I choose a SSD SATA disk with an USB 3.0 adapter to boot from. Therefore the following steps are necessary:
- Start raspi-config:
sudo raspi-config
- Inside raspi-config:
- 8 Update
- 6 (Advanced Options) → A7(Bootloader Version) → E2(Default)
- 6 (Advanced Options) → A6(BootOrder) → B2(USB Boot)
- Shutdown:
sudo shutdown -h now
- Remove SD card.
- Get Raspberry OS Lite onto the SSD (as before with the SD card).
- Connect SSD and boot.
My goal was to automate any further installation, configuration and updating. Ansible seems to be the right tool for that job.
- Install Ansible on your control host. I use the Pi itself for this, so I need these packages:
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install ansible git python3-docker build-essential cargo python3-pip
sudo reboot- Clone this repo to install openHAB:
git clone --recurse-submodules git@github.com:xxthunder/MyOpenHAB.git
cd MyOpenHAB- Adapt the inventory.yml file to your needs (hostname, piuser, etc.). The variable piuser defines the user running openHAB, in my case it is the default user created during disk creation above.
ansible-playbook main.yml"- After successful installation openHAB incl. frontail services are running:
- http://<your_pi_hostname>:8080/
- http://<your_pi_hostname>:9001/
