IOT on cloned PI

jwilsonatvars · January 2019

Hey team...

Is there a way to script the setup of the IOT agent on a cloned machine? for example...The script would search for the teamviewer ID of the original machine (in this case a raspberry pi 3) if the old ID is found, the script would insert the necessary info to connect the clone to a teamviewer account automatically with a new teamviewer ID

Is this possible? Are there files that can be changed for an unattended setup of the IOT agent? We have hundreds of PIs about to go to the field and this would be HUGELY helpful. I'm solid on bash scripts I just need to know the files to mod.

Thanks!

Hey folks...

I answered my own question here. It does not appear there is a way to do this directly with IOT config files but it does work using expect. Here's the basics:

/usr/bin/teamviewer-iot-agent stop
rm -f /var/lib/teamviewer-iot-agent/global.conf
/usr/bin/teamviewer-iot-agent restart
/usr/bin/expect -c "
spawn teamviewer-iot-agent setup
expect \"Accept License Agreement? (y/n)\" {
send \"y\r\"
expect \"TeamViewer account (email):\"
send \"<email.address>\r\"
expect \"Password:\"
send \"<password>\r\"
exp_continue
}
"

And dont forget to reinstall the agent to fix any missing files...

/usr/bin/dpkg -i teamviewer-iot-agent-*.deb
