Mosquitto in portainer

Third party integrations
,
1

Hi,

I am running HomeAssistant in Docker and Mosquitto for mqtt. It is working fine.
Recently, I added Portainer to my docker environment. As I created my containers with compose.yaml, Portainer does not have full access to those containers.
Most of my containers, I can remove and add the them via portainer “Stacks”.

Mosquitto has a conf-file. How do I add this to portainer (Community Edition 2.16.2 - stand alone)?

Mosquitto compose.yaml

Leave your docker-compose.yml unchanged and copy it to the Portainer’s stack editor. Assuming you are running Portainer on the same host, as you did with docker compose before. Since the filesystem paths did not change, it should work out of the box.

Thanks @m0wlheld,

thanks for your help. This was too easy to believe it would work… :laughing: but it did. :+1:
