fanshim

Control your Raspberry PI temperature using Pimoroni's Fan SHIM.

Usage

The fanshim block is meant to o be used alongside other services, so you will need to create a service in your docker-compose.yml file.

version: '2.1'

services:
  fanshim:
    image: bh.cr/gh_pipex/fanshim 
    restart: always
    devices:
      # Required to access gpio 
      - /dev/gpiomem
    labels:
      # Required to access the host /proc directory
      io.balena.features.procfs: '1'

This block will only work with Pimoroni's Fan SHIM (which is the one I have).
