Hi all, I am currently working on my personal project called **Komponist** [GitHub - shantanoo-desai/komponist: A Composer for your favorite IoT/ IIoT container stacks with Ansible + Jinja2 + Docker Compose v2](https://github.com/shantanoo-desai/komponist) that combines the Power of `ansible` + `jinja2` templating engine + `docker` / `docker compose v2`

## About

With this tool you can generate a complex combination of stacks for your IoT / IIoT applications by controlling just two files:

1. A configuration file that declares which containers needs to be brought up and which versions
2. a credentials file that will be used to control access to these containers

## Currently supported

- nodered
- mosquitto
- grafana
- influxdbv1 / influxdbv2

all of these containers are packed behind a reverse proxy (Traefik v2).

## Best Practices applied

It will generate the respective passwords with hashing and use secure deployment strategies for docker containers using `docker secrets` where ever permitted.

## Future Plans / Roadmap

It is an opensource project so contributions / suggestions / bug reports are welcome. If possible I will try to apply for a Call if there is NodeRED conference this year to show how it works.

### New Containers

- Telegraf
- TimescaleDB
