Home Pi

A Raspberry Pi config for home automation with Home Assistant

Features

Home Assistant: Installs the Home Assistant Docker configuration so you can manage smart devices across your home network. Use Home Assistant to automate your home!
Supports the install of either the normal Home Assistant Core or the powerful Home Assistant Supervisor (formerly referred to as Hassio / Hass.io). The later is only recommended for experienced users.

AirConnect: Installs the AirConnect Docker configuration so you can send audio to UPnP/Sonos/Chromecast players using AirPlay.

Setup

1. Install Ansible. The easiest way (especially on Pi or a Debian system) is via Pip:
   1. (If on Pi/Debian): sudo apt-get install -y python3-pip
   2. (Everywhere): pip3 install ansible
2. Clone this repository: git clone https://github.com/martinbrose/home-pi.git, then enter the repository directory: cd home-pi.
3. Install requirements: ansible-galaxy collection install -r requirements.yml (if you see ansible-galaxy: command not found, restart your SSH session or reboot the Pi and try again)
4. Make copies of the following files and customize them to your liking:
   • example.inventory.ini to inventory.ini (replace IP address with your Pi's IP, or comment that line and uncomment the connection=local line if you're running it on the Pi you're setting up).
   • example.config.yml to config.yml
5. Run the playbook: ansible-playbook main.yml

Usage

Home Assistant

Visit the Pi's IP address (e.g. http://192.168.1.10:8123/).
