Dynamic link USB device to Docker - UDEV symlink

[niietzshe]

Hey all, I asked over on the Docker forum and got nothing but tumbleweed.

I have a docker running OpenHab that is working perfectly, apart from if I remove the USB device and re-insert it.

You have to hard link it to a port (so /dev/ttyUSB0). I tried UDEV as explained here, but docker doesn't seem to support it.

 

I can setup the UDEV symlink in UnRaid, but then I'm unsure how to access that in the docker as the new link doesn't translate over to it.

 

Basically the problem is that I can never fully know what /dev/ port the USB device is on, so I need some way of dynamically linking that to something consistent. If anyone can offer any suggestions it'd be much appreciated.

 

Thanks

Christian

Have you made any progress with this? I am interested in running OpenHab as a docker as well. I would think some commands would need to be added to the go file to make this work. Then just simply passing the linked device to the docker.

Anyone ever figure this one out?  Frustrating then when I go to pair my Z-Wave stick, when I return it, I may have to change config of config files...

--device=/dev/ttyACM0:/dev/ttyACM0

 

works for my node red docker
