HomeAssistant_inabox
Docker app from SpaceInvaderOne's Repository
Overview
HomeAssistant_inabox downloads, installs, and automatically manages a Home Assistant VM on your Unraid server with a single click. If the VM is found to be unexpectedly stopped, the container will automatically restart it to ensure uninterrupted service. Once installed, clicking on this container's WebUI will redirect you directly to your Home Assistant VM's WebUI.

Notes
- During the VM installation, the container dynamically builds the XML template based on the current configuration.
- It automatically detects the highest available QEMU machine type on the server and adjusts the VM template to use the optimal configuration.
- For smooth operation, ensure that the VM storage and appdata paths are correctly set according to your Unraid shares.
