v0.39.0

⚠ Breaking Change: Moved from Alpine to Distroless

With version 0.39.0 the docker base image has moved from Alpine to Distroless.

Why

I've moved Kiosk over to Distroless for size, speed and security. I've always tried to be as friendly to users hardware (and security conscience) as I can and a smaller docker image just makes sense.

• Smaller image (around 50% smaller then Alpine)
• No shell (bash etc) so it has a smaller attack surface
• Faster startups
• Runs as nonroot by default

Possible user actions

Healthcheck

With this change the current healthcheck will no longer work as distroless does not include CURL, so I built one into Kiosk.

# OLD
healthcheck:
  test: ["CMD", "curl", "-f", "http://localhost:3000/health"]
  interval: 30s
  timeout: 5s
  retries: 3
  start_period: 10s

# NEW
healthcheck:
  test: ["CMD", "/kiosk", "--healthcheck"] # 👈 This is the only change to the healthcheck
  interval: 30s
  timeout: 5s
  retries: 3
  start_period: 10s

Offline assets permissions

As Kiosk now runs as nonroot you may get permission errors when using offline mode. View the offline docs for a solution.

Fullscreen keyboard keybind

Pressing "f" will toggle the browser fullscreen mode.

Temp Range Indicators

Added a small indicator on the temp range values to add help visually distinguish between high and low temps.

The default wind direction is now compass directions

Changed the default wind direction to use compass directions (N, NE, E etc)

wind_direction

Added wind_direction to weather locations. Setting this to true will display the wind direction as degrees

    - name: xxx
      lat: xxx
