Creating a project

A project is shared among a fleet of Raspberry Pi. Once created, you can install a project on several Raspberry Pis.

Project directory

The first time, you need to create a directory of your projects. This will be a collection of projects.

mkdir -p ~/Documents/dotpi-projects

Everytime you use dotpi-tools be sure to use this directory.

cd ~/Documents/dotpi-projects/

In a directory of projects, create a new one.

cd ~/Documents/dotpi-projects/
dotpi-tools --create-project

Then, follow the wizard.

create-project

Hit enter to accept a default option, or type a new value and validate with enter.

create-project-options

It is recommended to generate and install SSH keys for the new project.

create-project-ssh-keys

Your project is then ready to be installed.

create-project-ready
