A while back I thought I read a thread describing methods to expose the RPi GPIO interface to an LXD container. I can’t find that thread now, and am trying to accomplish this. On an Ubuntu Core install to an RPi 3, with Snap installed LXD 3.6, and a Debian container which I’d like to have GPIO access, I’ve tried adding:
raw.lxc: |
lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 1:* rwm
lxc.mount.auto=proc:rw sys:rw
raw.apparmor.profile = unconfined
security.privileged: "true"
Which I had hoped might do the trick, but seemingly not. Calling a Python script that imports RPi.GPIO fails complaining:
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/RPi/GPIO/__init__.py", line 23, in <module>
from RPi._GPIO import *
RuntimeError: This module can only be run on a Raspberry Pi!
So I guess something else is needed. Has anyone succeeded in this please?
