Tested on my Raspberry Pi 4 on a APC Back-UPS ES 700
USAGE
Just run the image publishing the port and pointing to the ups device path. Use lsusb to find the current Bus and Device
docker run -d -p 3493:3493 --name=Nut --restart unless-stopped --device=/dev/bus/usb/001/005 nardo86/nut-server
All the settings for the UPS are customizable like the name, driver, Port, Polling frequency and the description using the enviroment variables.
It is also possibile to insert an user, for example it's possibile to make the service compatible with Synology NAS changing the USERSSTRING like
-e USERSSTRING='[monuser] \n password = secret \n upsmon slave'
