This addon seems to be flooding my HassIO system log with authentication requests. See a sample of the log below.
I believe this has been happening since the initial release of the addon.

I don’t get this for any other addon, and it’s mildly annoying that the entire log gets overrun with these messages after ~30 minutes, pushing out any other useful information.

Is there a way to change the authentication so it’s persistent, and only logs in when the addon starts?

@Silicon_Avatar Unfortunately, this is how Hass.io authentication works.

I added the galande add-on in Hassio with nabucase remote, everything works fine and ingress is awesome. However, I can’t get the sensors to work, I added config as example but nothing. Any thoughts,what I have missed?

sensor:
  - platform: glances
    host: 192.168.156.2
    username: my hass username
    password: my hasspasswd
    version: 3
    resources:
      - 'processor_load'
      - 'memory_use_percent'
      - 'disk_use_percent'

Home Assistant wants to connect to a port. Individual components itself do not support Ingress. So you have to assign a port in the add-on configuration in the Network section in order for the component to work.

Thanks for your answer @frenck, I tried to add the port but that didn’t help.

  - platform: glances
    host: 192.168.156.2
    port: 61208

I gave me some new errors in the log

Did you add port 61208 to the add-on?

Yes I did, and still the same

I have also tried but with no success to get the sensors in hass. Have followed the instructions above.

50

I had a similar issue. I changed the port to 61208 on the add on and restarted HA and it started working

51

Did you use the ip of the machine, localhost (127.0.0.1) or internal ip of the container in your sensor config?

I have tried these configurations for the sensor, but none are working:

    host: 127.0.0.1
    port: 61208
    name: "Nuc"
    username: hassuser
    password: hasspassword
    ssl: true
    verify_ssl: true
    version: 3
    resources:
      - 'disk_use_percent'
      - 'memory_use_percent'
      - 'swap_use_percent'
      - 'processor_load'
      - 'docker_active'
      - 'docker_cpu_use'
  - platform: glances
    host: 192.168.1.78
    port: 61208
    name: "Nuc 1"
    username: hassuser
    password: hasspassword
    ssl: true
    verify_ssl: true
    version: 3
    resources:
      - 'disk_use_percent'
      - 'memory_use_percent'
      - 'swap_use_percent'
      - 'processor_load'
      - 'docker_active'
      - 'docker_cpu_use'

I used the localhost IP for my config. This is what i have within sensors.yaml

  - platform: glances
    host: 127.0.0.1
    username: login
    password: password
    version: 3
    resources:
      - 'processor_load'
      - 'memory_use_percent'
      - 'disk_use_percent'
      - 'cpu_temp'

Thanks all, for the recent conversation . Finally after many attempts, Glances is now performing as a sensor.

As per suggestions, I had to specify the localhost ip address 127.0.0.1, specify the port 61208 on both the Addon config screen and within the sensor configuration.

A restart of HA , and the sensors appeared as entities, to be used on the UI and to populate InfluxDB

I have gotten a bit further now! The only thing left seems to be that it gives me a 400 error now in the addon (same in MotionEye where I’m trying to get the camera still images), so it seems I am doing something wrong in the request, but at least I have a connectiong going on. I have put in my username in Home assistant and the password I use to login.
EDIT: Alright, got it now. What made the difference for me was setting ssl to true in the sensor config, but verify_ssl: false.

Don’t forget to enable the influxdb" in your Hass.io add-on config. I changed that, and now it works.
