IoT Gateway NG uses a fully automated, Ansible-driven process to create a lightweight, customizable OpenWRT base image. This approach streamlines system deployment and ensures consistency across all installations, making your gateway setup faster, cleaner, and easier to evolve.
🛠️ How It Works
- 📦 The entire OS installation process is defined in an Ansible Playbook—from partitioning and copying system files to installing GRUB and configuring
fstab. - 🔁 Modular tasks enable reusability and customization: every part of the image creation can be adapted by simply editing the playbook.
- 🧱 Generates a minimal base image (~100MB) that serves as the foundation for the full IoT Gateway NG stack.
🎯 Key Benefits
- ✅ Ensures repeatable and consistent deployments across multiple gateways.
- 🔄 Easy to update or evolve the base system without manual intervention.
- 🔒 Improves reliability and reduces human error during setup and image creation.
- 🚀 Accelerates the process of onboarding new devices into your IoT infrastructure.
