I’m pretty sure it’s stored as a hidden folder. Wherever you created your home assistant folder, there should be a .homeassistant subfolder.
i.e. if you created the virtual python environment at ~/homeassistant, your configurations should be at
~/homeassistant/.homeassistant/configuration.yaml
Keep in mind, these files are owned by the home assistant user. You can either add your current user to the home assistant group id, or change into the homeassistant virtual env to edit them as that user…neither of which I’m 100% certain how to do on MacOS. Most of this I’m basing on how I run in python virtual env.
use “ls -la” to see all hidden files in command line. Anything starting with a “.” is hidden. The finder wont be able to find the folder at all and wont find anything inside of it.
It could be in your user folder and not in ~/homeassistant/.homeassistant"
ls -la ~
Or more specific:
ls -la ~/.homeassistant/
This is based on what I’ve found. Maybe eventually someone running on mac will jump in and be able to tell me I’m dumb
nothing silly !!! Very smart and thank you very much for your time.
I was focused on searching inside the installation folder … and no … the .homeasistant was out, in another directory.
to see all hidden files …
