Installation Home Assistant OS

Anyone have any experience or know if / how to edit these options?:

{
  "log_level": "info",
  "avahi_interfaces": "",
  "avahi_hostname": "",
  "avahi_domainname": "local",
  "enable_ipv6": false,
  "packages": [],
  "init_commands": [],
  "plugins": []
}

The docs are sparse on these …

KEEP IN MIND, THIS THREAD WHERE YOU POSTED IS FOR AN OBSOLETE ADD-ON.

New thread for the replacement Homebridge Add-on:
https://community.home-assistant.io/t/repository-community-hass-io-add-ons/24705/73

Configuration info:

With that out of the way, it took me a few minutes to remember the context of the options you referenced since I haven’t revisited mine in some time. Here’s my Homebridge Add-on Options section:

{
  "log_level": "info",
  "avahi_interfaces": "",
  "avahi_hostname": "",
  "avahi_domainname": "local",
  "enable_ipv6": false,
  "packages": [
    "git"
  ],
  "init_commands": [],
  "plugins": [
    "homebridge-harmonyhub",
    "homebridge-alarmdotcom",
    "homebridge-platform-wemo",
    "homebridge-suncalc"
  ]
}

I can’t remember why I put “git” in packages unless I needed it for one of my plugins. The plugins you will want to include are for devices or platforms you want to control in HomeKit directly. From above, I’m using HarmonyHub, Alarm.com, Wemo, and Suncalc. If you are simply trying to surface items configured and controlled by HA in your HomeKit environment you don’t need these additional Homebridge plugins. I prefer to, in the cases above, to control the devices directly from HomeKit for various reasons. Hope this helps some.
