Encrypting passwords

Installation Home Assistant OS
1

Hi I’m running hassio and I’m try to use either AWS or keyring as shown in this document;

To enable these, do I need to install any software or plugin?

2

No you don’t have to install any additional software or plugins.

3

well I can’t run any of the commands to configure it,

$ hass --script check_config --secrets

or

$ hassio --script check_config --secrets
4

Have you created a secret.yaml file? It is just a text file. If it doesn’t exist the script won’t work. The script does not configure it, it checks it.

I didn’t had to create a secret.yaml file, it was there in hassio by default.
However, for example when I try to follow this

core-ssh:~# hass --script keyring --help
-bash: hass: command not found

6

looks like you can’t use that with hass.io

7

any other way to encrypt passwords in hass.io?

Also trying to use this keyring function with Hassio but “–script keyring --help” is not working. “Command not found”…

Using this command give me same result, “–script check_config”… -> “Command not found”.

What to do?
