Gather the following materials
We use Docker to create and customize home.raspbian.img, which will be etched onto a microSD card for the Raspberry Pi. This lets us create and customize new homes from our computers instead of directly on the pi.
Start by installing docker for your platform.
Next, open up a terminal, and clone this repository somewhere
git clone https://github.com/jedahan/creature && cd creature
Now we are ready to create an home! It make take up to an hour to build everything.
make home.raspbian.img
Once the home image is built, we can etch it onto a microSD card.
Install etcher (or etcher-cli) and point it to the image:
sudo etcher home.raspbian.img
Put the microSD card into a raspberry pi, turn it on, and after a minute or two you should see a 'home' wifi network up.
Follow the same steps as above, but replace home with creature
The creature and home need to be 'friends' in scuttlebutt-speak for them to share information.
