With the system software V1.1.4.0 we have upgraded the Docker management Web GUI portainer.io to one of the latest versions 1.19.2.
portainer.io hosts its API documentation for versions higher than 1.14.0 on the web. The upgrade now from the previously used version 1.12.4 to 1.19.2 gives users the possibility to follow the official portainer.io API documentation the first time to control netPi's Docker from remote via standard HTTP accesses.

Sure there may be thousands of other Linux servers that can host a local docker registry, but using a normal Raspberry Pi for studying how it works is the most easiest way to do it.
I read somewhere that it is not possible to perform docker commands like build,run etc from ntepi's command line. Is it true? If true, then how can we build custom images for netpi. If we need to build an image using a Rpi 3 and later how can we pull that image into netpi and start a container. I will be grateful if someone can help me with a link or file that can guide me through this process. Thank You very much.

I was committing the following improvements we intended to realize in the december netPI software release:
[2018-17-11] Updated Linux kernel from 4.9.x to 4.14.x. The original Raspberry Linux OS uses the same kernel version now and we want to keep pace with the latest up to date sources
[2018-17-11] Include portainer 1.19.x instead of 1.12.14. How it will look like can be tried here already.
[2018-17-11] User and role management of netPI's web interface now fully independent of portainer's own user and role management. This allows a better separation between administrator users responsible for the basic hardware and the common docker/portainer users
[2018-17-11] Possibility to shift away netPI's occupied HTTP/S ports 80 and 443 to any other port. This allows containers to take over those ports for own web applications listening on port 80/443.
[2018-18-11] Removing Linux RT-Patch from Linux 4.14.x due to this problem
[2018-18-11] Setting the system time setting to NTP by default with NTP servers 0,1,2,3.pool.ntp.org preconfigured. This makes initial commission much easier, cause if connectivity to the NTP servers is possible, then netPI's system time gets synchronous to Docker Hub's system time and certificates are no longer deemed to be expired preventing loading images.
Today I have to admit that our goal was too ambitious. In the today's netPI system software release V1.1.4.0 we only realized the following changes:
[2018-17-11] Include portainer 1.19.x instead of 1.12.14. How it will look like can be tried here already.
[2018-17-11] User and role management of netPI's web interface now fully independent of portainer's own user and role management. This allows a better separation between administrator users responsible for the basic hardware and the common docker/portainer users
With this change you have now nearly full access to all Docker functions on netPI and we are happy that after one year of stable 1.12.4 portainer.io version we have now the latest portainer.io software 1.19.2 up and running on netPI.
Please keep in mind that now portainer.io has its own user and role management and is no longer bound to netPIs main configuration pages and created users. (It may be necessary to clear your browser's cache in order to urge portainer.io to open the new login page in case you have your netPI before already with an older software step)
I am new to this forum. I actually want to buy this NetPi and i would like to get some clarification on below queries.
1. Is the pinout of NetPi same as the Raspberry Pi? Is the 40 GPIO Pins accessible to the user?
2. Can we load the Raspbian OS to the NetPi?
3. Can this item be shipped to India?
Will NetPi also provide a desktop like homescreen as normal raspberry pi do? If yes how to access that. I tried installing Tight VNCserver in my net pi which got successfully installed. But when i tried to access the Netpi using VNC Viewer from my PC, it is not getting connected and it is showing an error that "Connection rejected by device". Do i need to have some docker containers to do so? Also, there is a HDMI port on my Net pi device. Kindly let me know how can i get an output out of that HDMI port. Is that HDMI port there for the purpose of displaying Netpi's Rpi like home screen. I am quite new to this. Please bear with me if it is a silly question.
I can't seem to access my netPi anymore so I'm trying to reset it to factory setting using several USB sticks but can't seem to get
through. Node red got blocked and i couldn't delete the flows so i tried getting back to factory setting but now i can neither access the
device properly nor reset it.
Codesys container has the network interface configured as Host.
I also installed:
CODESYS V3.5 SP13 Patch 2
CODESYS Control for Raspberry Pi SL. I used the version 3.5.13.0 because, if I use the latest version (v 3.5.13.20), the connection towards the gateway is interrupted after 20 seconds from the connection.
I followed the instructions and finally I can run my Codesys program on my Edge Connect.
My program consists of an EtherNet/IP master that controls two motor.
As a next step, I bought the license for CODESYS Control for Raspberry Pi SL but I have a problem during the license activation.
In detail when I start the license activation, after few second the procedure fails with the error: "No Connection to the device. Please rescan your network"
It seems that the run-time crash. The only way to restore the connection with the gateway is to restart the run time.
