asterisk users - Dec 2017 - [OT] Overview of Homer installation on Debian Stretch

Hello,

I've discovered homer-api-postgresql and homer-api-mysql packages in
Stretch repo.

I'm not sure I understand how Homer-API relates to Homer.

My questions are:

1. What is the simplest available installation option to install Homer on a
dedicated box, this dedicated box gathering data from one or several
Asterisk systems on the same LAN ?

2. Is it possible to centralize data on a remote Postgres/MySQL server
(remote meaning hee Homer server acting as a DB client)

3. Suggestions ?

Cheers

1.  The simplest option would be to run the Docker multicontainer-setup as
described on the HOMER wiki here:
https://github.com/sipcapture/homer/wiki/Docker-Install
  2.  Sure it is. Just edit your homer configuration to reflect the remote DB
server
  3.  If you really want to learn and understand what?s happening, try following
a manual setup from source as described here:
https://github.com/sipcapture/homer/wiki/Quick-Install#-manual-setup-from-source-advanced

I have recently setup a Debian Stretch Azure VM along with an Azure MySQL
database to run based on 3. There were a few hurdles to overcome (that for the
most part were DB related) but I?ve managed to get there. Doing it this way
helped me understand how things interact and where to look at in case of
problems. It may take some time (as the wiki is not always very clear on every
step) but it?s time well spent and worth investing.

If you really get stuck somewhere I might be able to help you.



With best regards

Thanks Florian for replying.

1. I thought using Homer docker option required a Jessie setup.
Is it correct ?

2. Do you understand what homer-api-mysql package is for ?
After reading package's description on Debian stretch repo, it still keeps
mystery to me.

Cheers
