I’m writing to find out some infos about a docker installation on a Server equipped with Windows server 2012 stardard edition.
I’ve been able to install Pyton successfully, but by following the procedure reported on Home assistant HowTos, I must command to pyton to pull some files remotely, which are not allowed to download due to company internet policies.
because of that, my only question is, it there a possibility to install Hassio on docked COMPLETELY offline?
Hass.io is Docker + and (at least) three containers (Supervisor, DNS, Home Assistant). All those have to be downloaded from the Internet. Home Assistant is a Python program that will download and install Python libraries (at startup) according to your configuration.
The answer of course would be to talk to your IT department about getting some exceptions in place. If nothing else I’m assuming you’ve already cleared what you’re doing with them, if only to avoid being fired for mis-use of company property
One workaround would be to install Home Assistant in a VM. You can then copy the VM to a USB attached drive and copy that to the server to run (in the same VM software) there.
It will run fine without either inbound or outbound access. You just can’t install, update, or configure new components (unless of course their requirements are already satisfied).
