Other recommended services

Simple IoT works will with Caddy2, InfluxDb and Grafana. See the following roles for installing them:

• https://github.com/cbrake/ansible-role-caddy2
• https://github.com/cbrake/ansible-role-grafana
• https://github.com/cbrake/ansible-role-influxdb

This role is configured to work with the above. Other scenarios will likely require some customization -- pull requests are welcome.

This role can be configured to use caddy2 TLS certs for NATS by setting the user to caddy2.
