Home Assistant (Portainer template)
Home Assistant is an open-source home automation platform that puts local control and privacy first. It acts as a central hub for smart home devices, allowing for complex automation and integration across thousands of different brands.
Quick notes:
- Network Mode: For many integrations (like discovery of smart bulbs or TVs), it is highly recommended to use
network_mode: host. - Persistence: Ensure the
/configdirectory is mapped to a persistent volume to save your configuration, dashboards, and integrations. - Devices: If you are using Zigbee or Z-Wave USB sticks, you will need to map the device path (e.g.,
/dev/ttyUSB0) into the container.
Usage:
- Import the compose file into Portainer's Stacks or App Templates.
- Configure the volume mapping for the configuration folder.
- (Optional) Set the timezone environment variable (e.g.,
TZ=America/New_York). - Deploy the stack via Portainer.
- Access the web interface at
