How to install or add? #7

Closed atkulp closed 3 years ago

I'm using HACS. I tried adding this as a custom repository, but it gives an error about structure not being compliant:

I'm fairly new to HA. How should I be installing this (specifically, the rattler433 one).

Thanks!

The repository URL for this project is https://github.com/pbkhrv/rtl_433-hass-addons

You will need a USB SDR stick, which seem to be around $25... here is a link to one. Stick the antenna base on something METAL or you will have only about 5 feet of range.

Unfortunately the owner of this project is... somewhere? it's been over 30 days of inactivity and I've tried to contact him elsewhere so I dunno. It's pretty solid as long as what you want to monitor is supported already.

That's because this is an add-on, not an integration, so you don't add it to HACS. You add it in the supervisor panel. You have the correct URL, https://github.com/DanielWinks/HassOS-Addons, not whatever @jeffcostantino posted.

On the supervisor tab, click on "Add-On Store" along the top. In the page that loads, click on the kebab menu in the far upper right corner and select "Repositories" and add it there.

That's because I've been busy moving to a new house and with a new position at work, so I haven't had much time for anything. I haven't even had HA running for a few weeks, let alone working on any add-ons.
