I now have my system up on Docker on MacOS. It works but the one problem I’m running into is that I have a LOT more timeouts than I had previously on Hassio on the Raspberry. I’ve read everything I can find about this problem but it just appears that bridge networking is very slow.
I tried switching to host mode and when I do that I can’t access HA from localhost:8123. The web front end just isn’t available.
At this point I’m about to declare defeat, but surely someone has made this work?
This is a MacOS problem. I loaded Raspbian on my Pi, installed docker, and brought up the configuration with network_mode=host. Connection works fine and the network connection speeds are faster and more reliable than on my core-i5 iMac.
