Time to roll up your sleeves! 
https://home-assistant.io/developers/hassio/addon_tutorial/
Definitely looks doable from the github.

Home Assistant already uses Heyu internally for X10 support and has done for quite some time.
https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/blob/dev/homeassistant/components/light/x10.py
I’m hoping in the mean time, you Googled “home assistant x10” or “home assistant heyu” and figured this out

As follow-up to this, for a hassio installation you do need Heyu which is not available as an add-on. I tried to add the lines to my configuration.yaml but received the error:

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'heyu': 'heyu'I have a great deal of X10 installed (probably 25 or more modules) and had it working great with google assistant and habridge (which is a phillips hue emulator) until google disabled local network hue access. I started looking for an alternative and came across home assistant. I initially loaded hass.io but could not get heyu installed due to the nature of the hass.io OS. I ended up installing home assistant hassbian. Followed the X10 guide and got it working along with google assistant support. I will tell you beforehand is was a bit of work, I had to register to use sdk with google as well as getting static IPs and https certificates working on Hassbian.
Thanks, I really like hass.io so I’m hoping a Heyu add-on will be made. I posted here about it. I just don’t know enough about converting shell script to bash.
I’m willing to pay for it so maybe I can try that route to see if someone can help us out.
Here is my post:
You don’t need to convert his bash script to bash…it’s already a bash script.
well what am I doing wrong? I have placed the 3 files in the proper directory and loaded it as a local add-on.
His docker container is configured to run an x86 container. A pi is ARM and will never actually run that container. You would need an image built for a pi. Looking at his scripts, he is pointing to x86/64 scripts to pull down. You need something built for ARM
Ahh ok thanks for explaining. I’m going to see if someone wants to help me convert it to ARM then and I’ll offer to pay for it. Then maybe if the author allows it we could put it up for the public to enjoy. I posted a msg in the HA discord channel to see if there is forum category or proper place to post an offer like this. Thanks for your help.
If you take a look at his dockerfile, you will see where he is pulling scripts from.
Check to see if anything for ARM is available for those scripts
EDIT: Looks like there is.
You could try replacing the call in the script with that file instead
I went to your link and have edited the file and just seeing if I did it correctly.

My edits are:
- Line 7: Adding the new Linux ARM download file link in Line 7
- Line 8: Adding the new Linux ARM file’s SHA256 code at beginning (just assumed this? the new code seems longer than the previous one) and also adding new filename and the end of the line (replacing the previous ZIP file name)
- Line 9: Removed “unzip” and changed to “tar xzf” and added new Linux ARM filename
Those were all the changes I made to the dockerfile. I assumed my Pi3 isn’t ARM 64, just ARM.
Give it a shot and see what happens. If you get it working I’m sure others would love it.
What does your question have to do with the thread topic?
Do you have an issue with Google Assistant? If so, you need to make your own thread or ask your question in an existing Google Assistant thread.
Finally found time this morning to try to install the new add-on based on your help and suggestions.
When I try to install, unfortunately it doesn’t work and in the Supervisor log I get the following:

Next step is testing if it acutally works and maybe add something for the config.
Anyway, here are my instructions to get an local docker add-on for heyu which at least will install.
- Create a folder called heyu-addon in the /addons folder of your pi
- Create a file called Dockerfile with the following content:

&& chmod 777 /usr/local/var/lock
VOLUME /etc/heyu
EXPOSE 80
COPY heyu-run.sh /usr/local/bin/heyu-run
CMD heyu-run
- Create a file called config.jason withe the following content:

"version": "1",
"slug": "heyu",
"description": "heyu addon",
"startup": "before",
"boot": "auto",

4. Create a file called heyu-run.sh, chmod a+x it and use the following content:
```#!/bin/sh

- Install your newly created heyu docker-addon.
I am going to perform functional testing now, i’ll update as i get results (might not work at all, who knows …)
I am attemting to implement this and hot having much luck. So far…
SSH into the Pi, create the heyu-addon folder inside of /addons
create the Dockerfile with the content above and fixed using JSONLint.com, breaking the file apart before the line beginning with 4.
Then created the heyu-run.sh file, chmod a+x to make it executable.
No dice executing it, I get:
core-ssh:/addons/heyu-addon# ./heyu-run.sh
: No such file or directoryn/sh
./heyu-run.sh: line 2: $’\r’: command not found
./heyu-run.sh: line 34: syntax error near unexpected token elif' '/heyu-run.sh: line 34: elif [ “$REQUEST_METHOD” = “POST” ]; then
Trying to do some debugging on it now. Anybody got this working?

I’m going to try this in the next few days as well. I’m running on an ARM64. Is there an image built for that?
Did anyone get this working?
