Hi alltogether,
my name is Patrick, I’m from Europe and a newbie in Raspi(4) + Home Assistant
I’ve set up a Raspbian light OS with docker and installed there HA. It’s running but I already had problems to add my Homematic IP devices (they’re handled via Raspi Zero with RaspberryMatic).
For that I had to add the devices via SSH to the configuration.aml
Now I want to add some sockets (successfully flashed with tasmota) but again it’s not working with the description:
“Add xxDevicexx by adding via ‘Integration’”
I also don’t have this “Supervisor” area
=> Installation of addons isn’t available
What is wrong? How can I add elements with this “Integration” tool?
For me it’s not very useful to add/configurate everything by logging in via SSH and add something to a text file >.>
Or maybe…
Is it possible to install Home Assistant Supervised parallel to other things like Nextcloud, pi-hole, … on raspbian?
-> I thought this won’t work so I tried it with docker
With respect to integrations, there is no difference between any installation type. Only thing you get with HA Supervised on Raspbian is a warning about using an unsupported OS.
I’m completly confused everytime I start again doing anything with home assistant
Is in the supervised variant also everything in a container? This was claimed in a reddit forum -> would solve all the problems (parallel creating own containers with docker for other applications)
Update is done, but it’s still not running (got a message in the logs -> dependency MQTT is missing => waiting for answer to see if supervised variant would be the better solution)
HA Core is the main application. It requires a suitable Python environment that can be created on the host or provided by a Linux container (AKA Docker). The later setup is called HA Container.
The supervisor can organize a „core“ container and add-on-containers. It can be installed on a pre-installed, supported OS (Debian Buster for now), which is called HA Supervised. You can also get a distribution which contains HA Supervised and a minimal, dedicated OS. The name then is HA OS.
So, it‘s either HA directly on the host (HA Core) or it‘s Docker.
