home-assistant

My first attempt at running a home automation system was a Shelly device integrated to HomeKit - worked nicely. Then I fiddled around with running https://homebridge.io/ on my Raspberry 4, moved over to https://hoobs.org/ and realized that there must be something better. Luckily I found Home Assistant.

My goal

Have a nice and easy interface for the house on the iPad (no need for my wife and kids to access any of the Home Assistant stuff). Have an advanced interface to the house for myself.

This file is intended for me to document the quirks I had during setup and for others to learn and avoid them.

My setup

How to access HA from the outside?

The fritzbox forwards port 443 to the Raspberry running HA.

DuckDNS

lets_encrypt:
  accept_terms: true
  certfile: fullchain.pem
  keyfile: privkey.pem
token: ##replaceme##
domains:
  - xxx.duckdns.org
aliases: []
seconds: 300

NGINX Home Assistant SSL proxy

domain: xxx.duckdns.org
certfile: fullchain.pem
keyfile: privkey.pem
hsts: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains
cloudflare: false
customize:
  active: false
  default: nginx_proxy_default*.conf
  servers: nginx_proxy/*.conf

Network
Container   Host    Description
443/tcp      443
80/tcp      80

Also make sure to include http.yaml in configuration.yaml with

use_x_forwarded_for: true
trusted_proxies:
  - 172.30.33.0/24
  - 127.0.0.1
  - ::1

Using this setup, I can access HA locally with http://homeassistant-eth:8123/ and remotely with https://xxx.duckdns.org/. This is particularly important as local devices may not be able to use HTTPS, so I can still use HTTP locally.
