nx584_server/pynx584 included in HASS Core build #49

Closed GaryOkie closed 3 years ago

My objective is to run a dockerized nx584_server on a NUC that is also running the Home Assistant/NX584 integration, rather than set it up on a separate server. I was surprised to find that the latest version of pynx584 was already installed in HASS Core. This includes /usr/local/bin/nx584_server**** !

I have yet to find any information that there is a means of launching nx584_server from the integration. Was this planned? I suppose I could launch it via the HASS shell command. Ideally, it should run in its own docker so it wouldn't be restarted along with a HASS restart.

I would really appreciate any guidance on the purpose and/or plans for why nx584_server was included in the HASS core build.

Apologies - pynx584 gets installed (along with nx584_server & client) when -platform nx584 is first loaded. It's not part of the core build. In order for nx584_server to run in its own container, it will need to be reinstalled anyway.
