Request: Homebridge

This is working well for the most part. However, I can't get a few platforms working correctly. I'm currently focusing on HomeAssistant and the plugin crashes when it tries to load. I have quadruple checked everything and my json file validates.

 

I did notice that this docker (https://github.com/ckuburlis/homebridge-docker) is a few commits behind. Would that have something to do with this?

Hey guys, I made a new docker template that has been updated to the latest release of homebridge. https://github.com/lukeadair/docker-templates

It has also been reworked to use the phusion base image. Many thanks to @ckuburlis for his original docker!

 

Hey thank you! Do I just copy the config files into the appdata/homebridge/ folder and install plugins like ckuburlis had with his plugininstallfile?

Figured out the plugins installing. However I am having the same issue where it crashes when I load it with Home Assistant. Did you get it sorted out?

Sorry, I'm not using the Home Assistant plugin. Have you tried contacting the developer of the homebridge-homeassistant plugin? https://github.com/home-assistant/homebridge-homeassistant

Thank you for this! First time installing it on unRAID and it works great! Now have my Haiku fan and Chamberlain garage door opener homekit-enabled!

Hey guys, I'm having a bit of trouble adding the following repositories.

 

https://github.com/lukeadair/docker-templates

https://github.com/ckuburlis/homebridge-docker

 

I was able to put them in the Template Repositories list on the Docker main page but when I go into the Add Container I don't see them in the Template drop down.  :-\ Has anyone experienced this? I verified my unRAID box has internet connectivity and valid DNS entries.

Thanks again, Adair!  Do you plan on regularly updating the template to keep up-to-date with homebridge, by chance?  I ask because there seems to have been quite a bit of development lately on the github.  Appreciate your efforts!

I mainly made this for my personal use and figured I'd share it with the community. I will try to keep it up-to-date with homebridge as I need the updates for my setup.

I'm using Adair's homebridge docker and it seems to only work only once until I restart it.

 

I've got mine loaded with Nest and Chamberlain MyQ. If I issue a command to Siri to close the garage door, it will close. But if I try another command, like change the temperature to 75 degrees, Siri doesn't get a response and therefore doesn't carry out the command.

 

It will work after restarting the homebridge docker, but only one command works and then I have to restart it again. Shame as this could be very nifty!

 

Any ideas?

Perhaps it's the Nest plugin.  I use the liftmaster2 plugin with my Chamberlain garage opener, as well as the BigAssFans module.  It definitely can get a little wonky after a week or two of running, but I can absolutely issue multiple commands or use the iOS 10 home app no problem.

Trying to use this with SmartThings, I managed to get this running. From the logs I can see that it loads my SmartThings accessories and says it's running on port 51826, however on my iOS device it doesn't find any accessories from homebridge. Is there a step I'm missing so that devices can be discovered properly (port/variables/path, etc)?
