Enhance/test Docker compose to work on Rasberry Pi

[brylie]

As a home-automation developer
I would like to run Apinf on a Rasberry PI (or other micro-development board)
so that I can manage my home-based IoT APIs

Task

Enhance/test Docker compose, so our Docker image works on Rasberry Pi (ARM-based micro-development board).

Lets try this. I'll do testing on my RPI3. I just need some help in getting started.

@kyyberi I can try first test today on my raspberry pi in the second part of the day.

Excellent. Keep us updated :)

@brylie Please clarify task.

"I would like to run Apinf" that mean run full task of components (Platform, MongoDB, api-umbrella and still need ElasticSearch) or just Platform + MongoDB?

[brylie]

@kyyberi probably means to run the whole stack:

• Apinf + MongoDB
• API Umbrella + Elasticsearch

Basically, he is considering that someone interested in home automation would want a local API Proxy and Management Interface, so they can manage their local IoT devices from within their home.

@kyyberi any corrections/clarifications?

@shaliko also, please contact @bajiat before undertaking any new tasks. We need to think holistically about our current workload and priorities, and @bajiat has a good perspective of our current trajectory.

@brylie OK, today I do just 20 min tests.

[kyyberi]

No, @brylie described the need pretty accurately, whole stack.

@brylie @kyyberi @bajiat I was not able to start Platform on Raspberry Pi because all our Docker images (Platform, MongoDB, API-umbrella) will not work on ARM architecture.

We can solve that issue by creating new Docker images for ARM, and I am pretty sure that will not have an issue with Platform, MongoDB, ElasticSearch but migrate API-umbrella can require some time.

@bajiat Ping me if we need to continue to contribute to that task.

@shaliko thanks for looking in to this. If desirable, we can open one or more follow up tasks for creating the Docker containers you mention.

@brylie I can contribute to it if you think it will be useful.
