• ledidobe/grott (or ledidobe:grott:latest) for the standard build

• ledidobe/grottserver (or ledidobe:grottsever:latest) for the build with grottserver enabled (no communication with Growatts servers needed)

• ledidobe/grott:beta or ledidobe:grottserver:beta for the latest beta builds

• ledidobe/grottrpi (or ledidobe:grottrpi:latest) for the armv32 build (to support Raspberry PI boards).

• ledidobe/grottserverrpi (or ledidobe:grottserverrpi:latest) for the armv32 build (to support Raspberry PI boards).

For now only the beta versions are available with the multiple architecture support:

• ledidobe/grott:beta (or ledidobe/grott:2.8.3)
• ledidobe/grottserver:beta (or ledidobe/grott:2.8.3)

Ledidobe/grottrpi and ledidobe/grottserverrpi are still there while these are stilling being downloaded but will not be updated with the new releases.

The docker images created using the default values. This will be sufficient to run grott only the MQTT ip address needs to be specified at container startup
MQTT and other settings of Grott can be set at docker container run time by specifying environmentals (for available paramters see configuration page: https://github.com/johanmeijer/grott/wiki/Grott-Configuration).

• -p 5279:5279 maps grott container port
• --restart on-failure means allow the restart of the grott container after a failure

It also possible to set the grott parameters in a external file. Add -v parameter to the docker run command, example:

A docker container will use by default the GMT time. If Grott uses the server time (if no or no time or wrong time format is provided by the growatt inverter) it will sent the data records to MQTT and PVOutput with GMT as time reference.
If you want to use a different time zone it can be specified by the standard docker timezone environmental: TZ. You have to specify:

• -e TZ=Your/timezone

at the docker run command (or in the docker compose YAML file).

A list of time zones can be found at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones
