Install Flic

Try to run this command and then logout and login again to get rid off sudo:
sudo usermod -aG docker $(whoami)

Hi,

I have hassbian on a 3+, is it safe to say your instructions should still work?

I’m a complete novice so before I dive in I just wanted to know if it’s still valid?

Thanks

Paul.

i use Hassio on a Raspi with 73.01 and it’s works

Sorry to bump this.

Had to reinstall Hass after a SD failure so updated to HassOS on my Pi3B+.

I found out you dont need to use the BT addon but am now stuck at using the flicd ‘addon’:

Available HCI devices found:
hci0
Trying hci0
Successfully bound HCI socket
Flic server is now up and running!
Error: Timeout while initializing HCI, exiting. Try restart the program or replug your Bluetooth controller.

I get htis error constantly.

There is so much convoluted information around flicd depending on which version/build/hardware you are using, I’m struggling to know where to start with the new HassOS!

Anybody able to chip in a point in the right direction?

Hi thank you for the guide @Schmidij_ch :smiley: works perfect but i think i can only use RP3 bluetooth only with flic, cause when ever i start the service i lose connectivity to my Xiaomi BLE Temperature and Humidity sensor.
Is this to be expected ?
Thank you and wish a happy new year :smiley: !

For the ones still trying to integrate Flic buttons. After I had my Flic service running on 3 different machines in the course of time the setup process did go on my nerves.
so How Ludeeus is always saying automate, automate, automate, (I pressed cmd+v here)
