I don’t think you’re understanding something; pretty much everything listed as a Home Assistant addon is already available as a Docker Container, since that’s essentially what an HA addon is. Where they differ from the upstream container is in having code that allows them to integrate tightly with the Supervisor component in HAOS.
Wasn’t aware of that repo. Nice.

https://www.linuxserver.io/ provides standardized docker configs too.
Yeah except those will unlikely get properly organized, Thsts the entire point of my messages, is for you to make something that’s semi-official, to gather all of those random tweaker, posts, repos, etc in one place that’s recognized to be the main place for this kind of stuff
I don’t think you’ve read my entire message, I’ve mentioned I have NO Virtualization support and Docker is the only way for me on that machine
Without the proper virtualization you can’t have an efficient VM, if any, it will waste a lot of resources and won’t perform well at all even if I do manage to run it there
I’m literally running on a reporposed ARM device, and I clearly stated it was my only option.
Also no, you won’t need “many skills” if there was a proper community repo for this specific purpose, it would make it trivial for anyone except the first person to figure it out
And who said anything about “sample docker Compose”? And don’t you realize you do not need to change anything in your OS. That’s literally the entire point docker exists… Docker does everything inside containers, it doesn’t mess with host OS
Edit: this was meant for Edwin_D, this forum is a bit difficult to work with from a phone
Even when I come and literally give you a solution on a silver plate, you keep dismissing a valid approach, no idea how could there be so much ignorance about something so simple and common. I’ll pray that someday there’s a fork of this that actually listens to people who have valid concerns instead of dismissing them like it’s not your problem… I don’t understand why you don’t want docker users to ever have a better life with this, probably because that would decrease your hardware sales, huh?
So besides a link from the ha docs, what are you wanting that isn’t already provided by awesome-selfhosted or linuxserver.io?
I scrolled through the whole thread now to make sure: none of the responses came from the HA dev team. All the feedback is from the community.
You know what? I don’t think there is an HA Docs reference listing Custom Integrations either. Just a Community driven Custom Integration that tracks other Custom Integrations. Hmmm…
Maybe because it’s all Community Driven Custom Stuff, not part of the actual HA package.
(All the add-ons, even the ones listed as ‘official’ are not part of core, they are their own things and are not maintained as a part of Nome Assistant…)

Again, people that run Home Assistant via Docker already have access to MORE containers than there are Addons for Home Assistant OS. Most of them are aware that they won’t integrate neatly into Home Assistant and be managed by it, but they don’t care about it.
I decided on the docker installation to avoid even the add ons.
As mentioned several time, all add ons are available as separate container. And I preferer to have a container from the real source instead of waiting that someone is updating a add on (for example vaultwarden or adguard)
