I’m trying to migrate from HAOS to HA Container but that’s no way to restore the backup. Is there any other way to do this?
There’s no way to cleanly do it between hassio and core due to the add-ons vs integrations thing. If you’re just worried about entities, and don’t mind a bit of manual work to cleanup on the other side of things, just copy the entire home assistant directory from the host machine.
You don’t like Add-ons?
I’m surprised this still comes up. There’s like one extra step to adding the same functionality.
I’d say it’s not that trivial and makes you the maintainer of your add-ons. Of course it gives you more flexibility, but you do have to manage them/update yourself.
What is the step‽ I am running the container in unraid and want the addon!
Search for the name of the addon on docker hub and write your compose. Addons are just other containers.
Which add-on?
Except I can run other stuff that is not provided through addons. But granted; most use cases are covered with addons.
You must not be talking about HA Core. Because some of those add-on additions are just straight up impossible for Core, as far as my experience.
Which ones? I’m yet to see one and am eager to learn.
Node red is the most notable example.
Node Red is perfectly installable
Maybe if you’re a deep Linux head, but the rabbit hole of “first do x, which requires y, which requires z, which requires….” Seemed infinitely deep for me, who has only a passing familiarity with Linux.
Again, I’m talking about Node Red on HA CORE.
