drsik/homebridge repository overview

⁠Homebridge Docker

⁠Get started

Put your config.json into homebridge-config/ within your working directory and execute the run command. You can also edit and rename homebridge-config/config-sample.json.

⁠Run command

docker run -d --name homebridge --net=host -v $PWD/homebridge-config:/root/.homebridge/ drsik/homebridge:latest

You can modify the config.json on your host system anytime after running the container. But when you have finished you need to restart the homebridge container.

⁠Restart command

docker container restart homebridge

⁠Persistence

All relevant data of your homebridge instance is persisted on your host system in homebridge-config/ by using Docker bind mount. Therefore throwing the homebridge container away and recreating a new instance is unproblematically. In this case it is not necessary to configure your Home App on iOS again.
