openHAB Setup and Tools

In this repsoitory I collect everything needed to have a good running openHAB Setup. This Setup is based on a docker compose deployment. Included you can find the following toolset:

  • openHAB - Smart Home Hub
  • InfluxDB2 - for persistence
  • grafana inclusive renderer - for the visualization of data
  • postgres - for grafana configuration
  • Mosquitto MQTT - MQTT Broker for IoT Devices

Docker compose project

Just clone that complete repository (e.g. under /opt/):

git clone https://github.com/alaub81/openHAB.git

And configure the .envfile.

  • Change the passwords!
  • If you like to have grafana configured for mailing, change GF_SMTP_ENABLED=true and configure you mail setup.

Then you can create an openhab user and group on the host system if you like to map them.

groupadd -g 9001 openhab
useradd -u 9001 -g openhab -r -s /sbin/nologin openhab

Now we need the certificates for the secure mqtt connection of Mosquitto. For the generation of the certs we will use the generate-certs.sh. Just configure the script upfront:

  • Configure at least the IP Variable, use the FQDN
  • Change all other variables to your needs!
cd /opt/openHAB/certs
chmod +x generate-certs.sh
./generate-certs.sh

After that you schould be able to start the whole setup with:

cd /opt/openHAB
docker compose up -d

Now the Setup should be reachable:

Configure Mosquitto User

to connect to the secure MQTT Broker, you need at minimum one configured user. Just create the first one:

cd /opt/openHAB
docker compose exec mosquitto mosquitto_passwd -c /mosquitto/config/mosquitto.passwd mosquitto

Scripts / Tools

here you can find some usefull scripts I am using to administrate my openHAB setup. For example there are some scripts to do things in the persistence layer - influxDB. Or to bring more stability into the digitalstrom binding. Just have a look at the descriptions on top of each script.

To make the scripts running, please add the execute right to them and then just start it, e.g.:

cd scripts
chmod +x cleanup-influxdb-integer.sh
./cleanup-influxdb-integer.sh
