README

dgraziotin/smokeping-slave is a dockerized Smokeping, derived from linuxserver/smokeping, to run as a slave for another Smokeping instance (which could be the original linuxserver/smokeping).

Being derived from linuxserver/smokeping, dgraziotin/smokeping-slave preserves all of [linuxserver.io] goodies including enviroment variables, filesystem permissions, and software updates.

Settings

Follow linuxserver/smokeping instructions to set it up.

In addition, you must define the following variables and settings:

• SHARED_SECRET=12345password.
• MASTER_URL=http://your.smokeping.ext/smokeping/smokeping.cgi.
• Container hostname to the same name expected by the master.

The easiest way to have a master is to use linuxserver/smokeping and change its configuration files to expect slaves. The expected location for the shared secrets is /config/smokeping_secrets.

How to run

Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml are included for building the image.

Otherwise, feel free to use mine at dgraziotin/smokeping-slave.

Remember to set up the container hostname, either via command line (--hostname) or in the docker-compose.yml file.
