Home Assistant on Synpse

Home Assistant is a popular open-source home automation tool.

It can either be installed as a "Home Assistant Operating System" that strictly limits what else you can do with your device or you can choose to install it as a container through Docker.

Deployment

Use ha-synpse.yaml to deploy a containerized version of Home Assistant. Once deployed, you can access it using http://<device IP>:8123. Next steps can be found in Home Assistant official docs.

Expose with domain

To expose your Home Assistant you can use Webhookrelay

1. Register and login to WHR

2. Create bidirectional tunnel with custom domain. Set destination to http://homeassistant:8123

3. Create token to configure your tunnel

4. Create secrets relaySecret and relayKey:

synpse secret create relaySecret -v RELAYSECRET
synpse secret create relayKey -v RELAYKEY

1. Change ha-synpse-webhookrelay.yaml to point to your tunnel:

    - name: relayd
      image: webhookrelay/webhookrelayd-aarch64:1
      args:
        - --mode
        - tunnel
        - -t
        - <tunnel_name>

1. Deploy ha-synpse-webhookrelay.yaml to Synpse!
