Node-red on Orange Pi Lite & /dev/ttyAMA0

[MaxPetukhov]

I tried IOTstack on Orange Pi Lite, everything seems to work. But when installing Node-red, I have an error:
ERROR: for nodered Cannot start service nodered: error gathering device information while adding custom device "/dev/ttyAMA0": no such file or directory

Since I don 't have "/dev/ttyAMA0"

/dev/ttyAMA0 is the Bluetooth interface. To run on non-Raspberry Pi (including in "Docker Desktop" environments such as on macOS) you need to undo the effect of Pull Request 70.

In your docker-compose.yml, find the nodered: service definition and delete or comment-out the lines shown:

Then, in ~/IOTstack/services/nodered/Dockerfile, delete or comment-out these lines:

Next, force a local build with:

$ cd ~/IOTstack
$ docker-compose up --build -d nodered
$ docker system prune -f

If you ever decide to instrument your Node-RED container by adding things like the DNS tools, the Mosquitto publish and subscribe tools, and so on, reinstate those lines but remove eudev-dev before adding the packages you want. For example:

RUN apk update && apk add --no-cache mosquitto-clients bind-tools

Hope this helps.

Linux MINT

For practice I installed IOTstack on my system:

• Host: Dell-i5 Kernel: 5.4.0-89-generic x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 7.5.0
• Desktop: Cinnamon 4.4.8 wm: muffin dm: LightDM
• Distro: Linux Mint 19.3 Tricia base: Ubuntu 18.04 bionic

It used to work with the old repository. After upgrade to SensorsIot/IOTstack/ I encountered the same issue with nodered concerning "/dev/ttyAMA0": no such file or directory.

Modifying the /IOTstack/.templates/nodered/service.yml file in the same way as mentioned above for the nodered section of the docker-compose.yml does keep node-red functional after modifications of the IOTstack inside menu.sh.

Menu.sh modyfies the docker-compose.yml using the templates.

Different platform.Should probably be considered stale.
