It works. However, when I relaunch the application using java -jar hawkbit-runtime/hawkbit-update-server/target/hawkbit-update-server-0.2.0-SNAPSHOT.jar the database is reset. Do I need to configure a separate database that hawkbit should use ?

Michael Hirsch

@michahirsch

the update-server is using an h2-database in memory - to setup hawkBit for productive use, you should consider using a MySql - described here: https://www.eclipse.org/hawkbit/documentation/guide/runhawkbit.html

Running java -jar hawkbit-runtime/hawkbit-update-server/target/hawkbit-update-server-0.2.0-SNAPSHOT.jar fails as I do not have target directory after clonning the hawkbit in my workspace. Please help

Kai Zimmermann

@kaizimmerm

you have to build it first. mvn clean install

Twitmeankush

@Twitmeankush1_twitter

Did that

Let me do again

I think I just installed Maven.....will get back.

Michael Hirsch

@michahirsch

if you familiar with docker you can also run the hawkBit docker container docker run -d -p 8080:8080 hawkbit/hawkbit-update-server

Unable to access jarfile ./hawkbit-runtime/hawkbit-update-server/target/hawkbit-update-server-#version#-SNAPSHOT.jar

Even after mvn clean install, m not getting the "target" directory

Kai Zimmermann

@kaizimmerm

Does you maven output looks like this?

java hom eenvironment not set it seems

Am I missing some setting?

Kai Zimmermann

@kaizimmerm

So I recommend to fix you build first :)

But if you are not into java development I recommend to take the docker version.

Twitmeankush

@Twitmeankush1_twitter

yes m not into Java

Kai Zimmermann

@kaizimmerm

so docker then docker run -d -p 8080:8080 hawkbit/hawkbit-update-server

Michael Hirsch

@michahirsch

another option is to download the released jar from maven-central http://central.maven.org/maven2/org/eclipse/hawkbit/hawkbit-update-server/0.2.0M4/hawkbit-update-server-0.2.0M4.jar and start the jar java -jar hawkbit-update-server-0.2.0M4.jar but for this you would also need JRE on your system working

embexus

@embexus

Is there any docker version of Hawkbit that contains database persistence ? the one your provide is not really useful since after a restart all setup are gone !

Michael Hirsch

@michahirsch

nope, so far there is no docker-container which can be configured using a MySql, you would need to build the hawkBit with mysql by your self see https://www.eclipse.org/hawkbit/documentation/guide/runhawkbit.html Set MariaDB dependency to compile in the

for non productive use - you can also use a H2-Database as server version and configure the datasource-url pointing to your h2-server-database - this you can set via environment variable for the hawkBit docker-container - for development purposes and persisting data

embexus

@embexus

Thanks

is H2-Database used for Artifacts storage ? what should be used then for "Productive" use ?

Michael Hirsch

@michahirsch

no the artifact binaries are stored either in the file-system (default implementation) or you can checkout different implemenations at the https://github.com/eclipse/hawkbit-extensions like s3-implementation or mongoDB-GridFS-implementation avaiable ... for production use you can use actually all of them as long it fits in your system and your system requirements like data-backup etc

embexus

@embexus

Yeah cool I'll give it a try

Michael Hirsch

@michahirsch

in case you are using file-system be sure to mount a file-system outside the docker-container :)

embexus

@embexus

any Howto deploy Hawkbit on cloud i.e AWS ?

Michael Hirsch

@michahirsch

there are many ways to deploy hawkBit in the cloud and for different cloud-providers - for the runtime and examples there is an example CloudFoundry manifest available in the hawkBit repo like here https://github.com/eclipse/hawkbit/tree/master/hawkbit-runtime/hawkbit-update-server/cf

but there is no guide how to deploy it in different clouds like in AWS with docker, ECS, Beanstalk, there are many ways but if you found a nice way, happy to see a blog about it :)

embexus

@embexus

If I find out I will, thanks

Michael Hirsch

@michahirsch

the easiest way to just deploy it is probably to build your docker-container and start an EC2 instance and using docker to start hawkBit :) - e.g. using docker-swarm

embexus

@embexus

You're talking to an Embedded Guy :-) who have no Idea on what docker-swarm is :-D

Michael Hirsch

@michahirsch

It's time to start thinking bigger and outside a little small box with very limitted resources on it :P

embexus

@embexus

but in general I think there are a lot of embedded guy like me evaluating/playing with Hawkbit for Updating devices with little or no background on Java/Backend/Swarms/..., It will be great if the barrier to Entry hawkbit is reduced

Kai Zimmermann

@kaizimmerm

We (Bosch) are currently working on offering free accounts for up to 50 devices. Hopefully this will help in that regard.

embexus

@embexus

That sound great :-)

Kai Zimmermann

@kaizimmerm

Stay tuned.

embexus

@embexus

My final goal is just to setup a way to update devices for my customers, if at the end there are costs then I simply charge them !!!

at the end the flexibility security and reliability are the most important factors

Kai Zimmermann

@kaizimmerm

makes sense

embexus

@embexus

there are already offers on the market :

https://www.kynetics.com/iot-platform-update-factory

I didn't give it a try yet

But the file storage offer is extremly low

Angelo Compagnucci

@angeloc

Hello to all! @kaizimmerm Hi Kai, I would like to ask you which could be the easiest way to integrate an authentication system. I know by the docs that an openid could be integrated, but It's overkill for me right now. I'm looking for something more relaxed, like an administrative panel for managing users or like http basic authentication to integrate with other administrative panels. Have you any recommendation?

Kai Zimmermann

@kaizimmerm

@michahirsch is the expert on that one. Michael do we have a guide on that topic?

Angelo Compagnucci

@angeloc

@kaizimmerm wonderful! thanks for the quick reply!
