I just uploaded an Hass.io add-on for networkupstools.org. It is intended to be used with the NUT sensor. If you are interested in testing please have a look at https://github.com/asciinaut/hassio-addons/tree/master/nut
Adding any supported USB UPS should be straight forward. Adding networked or serial connected UPS will need additional changes. Please let me know, if you you have such UPSes and are willing to test.
I will try to test this weekend.
Just tried to install this and Iām getting this error:

Any ideas?
Iāve tried on a Raspberry Pi 2 connected to an APC ES 700.
Works well - great work and thank you!
I would recommend this for the official repo.
Thatās because the Dockerfile for the addon needs to be updated to support the current hassio addon build system. You can read about the change at Improved Hass.io build system - Home Assistant.
@ASCIInaut, I just submitted a pull request to your repo with the necessary change to get the addon working again. Thanks for creating this addon. Itās been helpful for me.
Trying to install the addon, but when I add it to the list of repoās and hit save it just disappears from the listā¦
Latest version of hassio with 3 other repoās installed.
Thank you for the the pull reqest @NotoriousBDG 
. I merged it and NUT builds on latest stable hassio.
Got this setup and working with my APC Back-UPS pro 1500 but i can not get the current wattage to show. I can get the ups.realpower.nominal to show but this is not the current load on the system in watts. Any body got an idea how to get this to show?

Driver failed to start (exit status=1)Hi, Iāve added the repo but iām not able to install the add-on
the āinstallā label turns red after a few seconds without install the add-on
any help?
hass.io v 0.69.0
I have the same problem, the build fails in hassio 0.69.0.
I opened an issue in https://github.com/asciinaut/hassio-addons/issues/2 .
It works all right. Thank you very much!
First of all, great work!
Unfortunately I can not install the add-on. It does not complete the installation process and the āinstalā button turns red.
Am I too incompetent to do it? 
Thank you
Iām having a similar problem. Addon stopped working so I uninstalled and canāt reinstall.
Just tried the forked repo and all working now. Thanks Network UPS Tools add-on
Iāve installed the forked repo from colindunn but i have an 2.2kVA APC Smart UPS with serial communication. Iāve connected it with the same serial cable it was working on a windows PC and plugged a usb-serial converter in the raspi 3B+. Hassio reports the following hardware:
Hardware
so in the add on configuration i just mofified this in the standard configuration:
āupsnameā: āupsā,
ādriverā: āapcsmartā,
āportā: ā/dev/ttyUSB0ā
now when i try to start the service i get the following:
Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 3.8.0-3727-geade014bef
Network UPS Tools - APC Smart protocol driver 3.1 (3.8.0-3727-geade014bef)
Fatal error: unusable configuration
APC command table version 3.1
Unable to open /dev/ttyUSB0: No such file or directory
Things to try:
@PAVazquez I have the same behaviour .
I have tried āchmod g+rw /dev/ttyUSB0ā but it didnāt help me.
usermod command is missing in Hass.io.
Did anyone try the NUT addon that @frenck and @dale3h are adding to the community repo?
Its not released into the repo yet, but I expect it would be possible to clone as a local addon or to add it to another repoā¦
For now I will be using the forked repo linked by @MichaelSchemmer.
Iām unable to get the addon-nut in the Community Has.io repo to work. This is the error in the logs:

We are so sorry, but something went terribly wrong when

Iām able to get NUT setup on a separate RPI without any issues. It looks like the add-on canāt find the USB cable attached to the RPi. This is using a CyberPower UPS. I also have a Aeotec Z-Wave USB dongle attached to the same RPi3ā¦ not sure if that might a factor.
The other repo works fine (for me)
