How do you use the IoT image? Samples and tasks for User's Guide

[Susan Lauber]

A followup to yesterday's meeting.

I am looking for use case samples to help drive what needs to be covered in
a user's guide as well as use real examples when showing how to layer a
package or run a container.

I will take:
"I layer package X"
I'll take anything to build my collection of use case samples but I am also
hoping for something smallish to show as an example. Also for an example in
the docs, it should be something already in the repos.
I know Mozilla Gateway is in progress. What else?

I will take:
"I run app Y in a container"
Is there a public container I can show in search, pull, and run commands?
Bonus points if it is in the fedora registry rather than docker.io  This
might be something that can also be used later used in demos at conferences.
How about a simple Dockerfile for your application?

I will also take links to blog posts that you have read (or written).
Things that could be done on a device running Fedora IoT. The article does
not have to already be using our images but it should be a project that
makes sense to setup up using our images for the core OS.
I have this F28 based one which also includes creating a Dockerfile to run
the commands in a container.

Doesn't meet the bonus points, but maybe https://www.home-assistant.io/?

(Theoretically this could be packaged for Fedora, but it'd need a maintainer
really commited to making that a value add over the upstream packaging.)

example of a config file stored locally instead of in the image and of
course network configuration.

I'm still open for other suggestions. Got anything smaller?  For my poor
little pi with with its itsy bitsy 16G SD card?

I have no issue with upstream packaging, just that docker.io has a lot of
cruft to sift through to find a trusted and well maintained images.  :)
The star system only helps so much.

Keep em coming!

Git is not as a command provided by the initial image. I have layered it as
a some test run on top of it. At the end I reverted back to the initial
image. I found it quite educating to run through this process.

I like the idea to use home assistant, which is a nice use case for iot.
