Add-on ideas

What about HDMI CEC?

I have finished the local-addon-version of the HASS Configurator. If someone is willing to test and maybe suggest some changes, here’s the current repository: https://github.com/danielperna84/hassio-hass-configurator

Edit:
There now is a real add-on repository at https://github.com/danielperna84/hassio-addons
Starting with Hass.IO 0.26 this can be added as a repository and installed with a few clicks.

Smartthings MQTT Bridge would be a great addition. It only requires Node and Mosquitto (which is already available on HassIO).

FTP server, since some IP cameras can upload images to FTP.

I have moved the add-on configuration discussion to it’s own topic at

Extend add-on capabilities

I allready have a docker image to run mopidy on the raspberry pi. I need to run it with --device /dev/snd in order to access the sound card from the container. Is it possible to have this option activated for an hass.io add-on ? If this is possible, I will try to convert it to be run as an add-on. Since I need to run it on another host, are the add-on runnable independently ? Edit : I have Mopidy running in a debian based image. I didn’t managed to build a working image with resin/*-alpine.

UniFi controller would be nice for this

[CTLS]

The Concord232 component can’t run without the concord232 server so that would be a nice add-on.

[jcastro (Jonatan)]

I would add to the list Homebridge

[nachiarg]

Homebridge would be really nice

[mcfrojd]

I would like to se
https://community.home-assistant.io/t/floorplan-for-home-assistant/17394

As a addon.

[Dominic (Dominic McGlinn)]

sense Hat would be handy

[robmarkcole (Robin)]

Apache server to make available contents of a specific folder would be useful e.g to enable browser based browsing of images captured by a camera

[balloob (Paulus Schoutsen)]

We already support the local www folder in the home Assistant config dir

[robmarkcole (Robin)]

I wasn’t aware of that but found the blog post now https://home-assistant.io/blog/2016/04/07/static-website/ Didn’t find any detail in the docs?

[robmarkcole (Robin)]

Kyso looks like a really great tool - could contribute notebooks of analysis of HASS database data

https://kyso.io/

[tbrasser (Thomas Brasser)]

Seems that you can’t host that yourself (for free). I’ve been using InfluxDB and Grafana and have no issues with that setup. (Even available for hass.io now: Repository: Bestlibre Addons repository )

[robmarkcole (Robin)]

Kyso can be hosted and run in docker for free, and teams can be created. However notebooks are ‘public’ on the free tier. For hassle free jupyter notebooks this could be a good way to go.

I’ve been using netdata instead of glances and really like it. It would be really nice to have for hass.io

[Romkabouter]

I am currently working on a local kiosk browser, so you can deploy hass.io on a Pi3 with a touchscreen.
Hopefully ready soon.
