Is there a way to just disable Home Assistant/MQTT integration?

[minollo]

I don't really need HA/MQTT integration, and I would like to just disable that whole communication branch - rather than setting up a dummy mosquitto server...

I pushed a change to make MQTT and HA optional #97

Remove existing container and image:

docker stop simple-cloud-detect
docker rm simple-cloud-detect
docker image rm chvvkumar/simpleclouddetect:latest

(docker compose example, change the vars to your own environment)

services:
    simpleclouddetect:
        container_name: simple-cloud-detect
        network_mode: host
        environment:
            - IMAGE_URL=http://allskypi5.lan/current/tmp/resized_34.jpg
            - DEVICE_NAME=docker2 Cloud Status
            - DETECT_INTERVAL=60
            - ALPACA_PORT=11111
            - ALPACA_UPDATE_INTERVAL=30
            - VERIFY_SSL=false
        volumes:
            - /docker/simpleclouddetect:/config
            - /docker/simpleclouddetect/keras_model.h5:/app/keras_model.h5
            - /docker/simpleclouddetect/labels.txt:/app/labels.txt
        restart: unless-stopped
        image: chvvkumar/simpleclouddetect:snd

Great! This streamlines the setup and avoids useless components.
