Request for docker container version of Danfoss add-on #4

Open CaspervanD opened 9 months ago

Linas, Finally some progress in the possibilities of using Danfoss icon (App) in Home Assistant. Really appreciate the work you have done. Do you see any possibilities of making a docker container version of the add-on?

Regards Casper p.s. first ever post, not sure if this is the right spot for my request.

Hey, what do you mean by docker container version? It already runs as a docker container when installed as HA add-on. Do you want prebuilt docker image in some public container registry you could use?

CaspervanD commented 9 months ago

Hi, I run HA in a docker container environment. Some of the "addon's" I use are available in a public registry (e.g. hub.docker.com). As the addon you have made is specifically aimed at HAOS I cannot use it (addon's for HAOS run as a docker container indeed but they cannot run independent from HAOS) I would love to be able to use your work in a separate container (next to my HA container)...

Currently, running this add-on as a separate container wouldn't work because it interacts with Home Assistant API when exposing sensors and uses HAOS way for configs, UI, etc. So code would need to be refactored to not depend on Home Assistant (but still be able to use it as HAOS add-on). Personally, I don't have time and motivation to do this (because I use HAOS at my home and current add-on works perfectly for me) but if anyone would like to contribute with some improvements, I'm open for that.

Thanks for the reply. I was obviously hoping for another answer but I fully understand. My programming skills are not sufficient to tackle something like this. Hopefully in the future someone will have the time and necessity to pick it up.In the meantime I will try the option mentioned in the Home Assistant forum ( OpenHab in combination with Devireg)

Thanks again and keep up the good work!

Thanks for understanding me. I'm thinking to add MQTT support and use docker images from github container registry some time later but not sure now when I'll have time for this. It might be much easier to use it as separate container after this is done.

Just found your repository, thanks for the great work to support Danfoss Icon app.

As CaspervanD, I would be also very interested to have a separate docker solution as I don’t have HASS.

Thank you !
