HA ❌ crashes when executing `shell script` command

Configuration
1

I have a webhook calling a automation trigger:

- id: '15637290'
  alias: thing Flag
  trigger:
  - platform: webhook
    webhook_id: thing
  condition: []
  action:
  - alias: ''
    data:
      entity_id: media_player.living_room
      message: Download Detected
    service: tts.google_say
  - data: {}
    service: shell_command.scan_thing

According to my script, the triggers are fine (it calls a TTS before the shell script)…

But once the shell script attempts to execute:

shell_command:
    scan_thing: python '/media/File/Media Backup/pythonscript.py'

HA crashes and is unavailable locally.

To fix it i have to comment out the scan_thing: from the config file.

Things to note:

  • Im running hassio on an OP Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS.
  • Hassio in docker - Home Assistant V 0.96.5
  • I have full file permissions at /media/File/Media Backup/ (i can run from the terminal np)
  • I cannot use the python_scripts folder, since i require import
  • I would be open to using appdaemon, its already installed… but i cant find in their docs how to execute on recieving a webhook.

It’s a known issue https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/issues/22999

I also have to leave my stream: disabled for now :frowning:
