The installation of this add-on is pretty straightforward and not different in comparison to installing any other Hass.io add-on.
- Add my Hass.io add-ons repository to your Hass.io instance.
- Install this add-on.
- Click the
Savebutton to store your configuration. - Start the add-on.
- Check the logs of the add-on to see if everything went well.
- Carefully configure the add-on to your preferences, see the official documentation for for that.
Beware that you need to install a separate postgres addon to be able to connect the database. You can install the postgres addon already in my repository. Beware to change the password BEFORE starting it ; it won't change afterwards
