HA VMDK install dehyration tutorial?

Configuration
1

So I have a VMDK install of HA and am trying to get dehydration installed but none of the tutorials are for VMDK. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I’ve stumbled through to editing the HA config. (Haven’t used ssh in a long time.)

the config edit is:

http:
  api_password: !secret hass_pass
  ssl_certificate: /home/homeassistant/dehydrated/certs/myhome.duckdns.org/fullchain.pem
  ssl_key: /home/homeassistant/dehydrated/certs/myhome.duckdns.org/privkey.pem
  base_url: myhome.duckdns.org:8123

Where does the api password come from?

Both api_password: and base_url: are deprecated for the http: integration.

VMDK isn’t an install type, but rather an option for installing the Home Assistant OS install type. So, you won’t find instructions specific to “VMDK”. You’ll look instead for the Home Assistant OS docs, docs for individual add-ons (I’m not aware of anything for dehydrated), or in many cases the old term “Hassio”.
