ASUSTOR Community Forum

Hello ,
How can I run Homebridge on Asustor over Docker?
Find no manual how to use Docker on Asustor or how to configure it.

Here an example how it works on synology
h**p://jensbouma.nl/blog/homebridge-in-a-docker-container-on-the-synology-diskstation-guide/

Digging up an old topic, but I would like to know also!

Add me to the list of those interested. Anyone find a way to accomplish this? I have Docker installed on my Asustor NAS.

Run: Then run: Substitute:
<UID> and <GID> with 999 (admin,administrators).

<timezone> with your TZ i.e. curl https://ipapi.co/timezone

</path/to/config> with /share/Docker/homebridge

See here for more details https://hub.docker.com/r/oznu/homebridge/

Access should be via: http://your_nas_ip:8080

This is great. Got it installed but then after changing the admin password on Homebridge to something stronger besides "admin", I could no longer get that URL to work. Tried rebooting the NAS but still not able to access it. Not sure if it's a coincidence? Also, does the NAS' admin user account need to remain enabled for this to work?

Lastly, do I need to insert a command line somewhere on the NAS so that it loads up the docker each time I boot up the NAS or is this done anyways since I have Docker App enabled?
