Anthias Deployment

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

If you do regular deployments you can create an image. A reasonable approach is to:

Shrink the last partition
Zero fill the remaining free space
Find the end of the last partition
DD that to a file
Use raspi-config to resize after deploying

Or you can use PiShrink to script all that.

Installation

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Drewsif/PiShrink/master/pishrink.sh
chmod +x pishrink.sh
sudo mv pishrink.sh /usr/local/bin

Operation

# Capture and shrink the image
sudo dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=anthias-raw.img bs=1M
sudo pishrink.sh anthias-raw.img anthias.img

# Copy to a new card
sudo dd if=anthias.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1M

If you need to modify the image after creating it you can mount it via loop-back.

The API docs on the web refer to screenly. Anthias uses an older API. However, you can access the API docs for the version your working with at

http://sign.your.domain/api/docs/

You’ll have to correct the swagger form with correct URL, but after that you can see what you’re working with.
