@nogooduser@rah I’m currently running it in docker, and it’s taught me a lot about docker, but it’s a hell of a technical overhead every time you want an addon.
The documentation very strongly steers you to a whole-os install, and I don’t like that, but I’m tempted. I may well succumb and pick the HA image for my raspberry Pi, start over
The one thing that was a misstep on my docker journey was that the original tutorials that I followed installed them using the command line. It’s much better to do it using a docker compose file.
@nogooduser Oh yes, I agree. Docker documentation is so random. Once I discovered that later versions of compose could inline the buildfile, I realised that was clearly the way to go. But you have to hunt through the docs to find it.
