Comment on Home Assistant - am I missing something?
sokkies@lemmyrs.org 1 year agoDo you use it as a docker container or the full Home Assistant OS?
I want to get it to play around but cannot really justify buying a separate raspberry pi jhst for HA?

I ran it in Docker initially and it’s annoying because you can’t use HACS, which brings in a lot of custom integrations and features. You also can’t use any addons that spin up containers either. I ended up getting a thin client and running it on there in a VM.

You can use HACS in Docker. I definitely had that working in Docker before I moved to Home Assistant OS on a dedicated machine. You’re right about add-ons though, maybe you had the two confused?

My add-ons are in containers. EspHome, Node Red, PiHole, zigbee2mqtt, mosquito etc
