KioskDemo

This is the example kiosk application for followings,

• kiosk_nerves_rpi4
• kiosk_nerves_rpi5

How to try

git clone https://github.com/nerves-web-kiosk/kiosk_demo.git
cd kiosk_demo
export MIX_TARGET=rpi4
mix deps.get
mix firmware
mix burn

If you want WiFi credentials to be written to the MicroSD card, initialize the MicroSD card like this instead:

NERVES_WIFI_SSID='access_point' NERVES_WIFI_PASSPHRASE='passphrase' mix burn

You can still change the WiFi credentials at runtime using VintageNetWiFi.quick_configure/2, but this helps when you don't have an easy alternative way of accessing the device to configure WiFi.

Then,

1. Insert the MicroSD to your Raspberry Pi 4 or 5
2. Connect your Pi and a display
3. Boot it!!

We will see Phoenix LiveDashboard on your display!!!

We can change the URL to use KioskDemo.change_url("http://example.com") on IEx console over SSH.

And there are some functions in KioskDemo module which lead browser to famous URL. Enjoy!!

1. Create rootfs_overlay/etc/xdg/weston/weston.ini
2. Edit it like following

[output]
