2 years ago As far as I know, this fork is not under active development, and only exists to incorporate updated depencies from the software it is the wrapper for (alexa remote2 by Apollon77{sp?})
You might be better off addressing the Applestrudel fork, which I believe -is- under active development. (I would have migrated by now if I didn't have so many flows to fix!)
I'd have included links if I was on my desktop, not in bed reading mail on a tablet! Sorry about that!

That's understandable - it's a Docker port mapping issue - but annoying because you can't add ports to an existing container. Either you have to rebuild the NR container to add the required port, or do a complicated and lengthy procedure to edit it into the container config files (see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19335444/how-do-i-assign-a-port-mapping-to-an-existing-docker-container/26622041#26622041). Since the docker installation is the primary recommended way to go for NR these days, this issue is likely to come up for others, so a mention in the documentation would be nice,
Especially since the Cookie method is undocumented (link to "how to get a cookie" doesn't work, at least not in the container), and the email password method is deprecated and no longer works.
