Integration of Domoticz logging and Splunk for Raspberry PI 4 (ARMv7)

The idea was to have smart home (Xiaomi SmartHome Kit) events logged into Splunk. Domoticz configuration is out of scope

How it works

In current setup, there are 2 containers deployed in Raspberry PI 4:

• domoticz: Domoticz Server
• splunkforwarder: Splunk Universal Forwarder has domoticz.log mounted into container. Also it listens for UDP Syslog events from LAN (e.g. from router). Then it forwards events to remote Splunk instance

Setup

1. Pre-configuration:
   1. [OPTIONAL] update ports/paths in docker-compose.yml, if updated - reflect paths changes in splunk_conf/inputs.conf
   2. [OPTIONAL] update package versions in Dockerfile_* (Architecture used in ARM 32-bit since of current stable Rasberry Pi 4b)
   3. update remote Splunk Enterprise host/ip and port in docker-compose.yml
   4. [OPTIONAL] update hostname for both containers in docker-compose.yml
   5. [OPTIONAL] Restore Domoticz configuration DB in /opt/docker/domoticz/config/
2. Deploy with docker-compose up -d
