Home Assistant Stack with Docker Compose

This is a docker compose to create an Home Assistant stack with:

• Home Assistant Core
• Caddy Server (Proxy Server with autorenew certificates feature)
• Eclipse Mosquitto MQTT broker
• Zigbee2Mqtt
• Portainer
• NoIP Renew (to update noip.com FQDN)

Installation steps

Make a copy of mosquitto/config/mosquitto.example.conf file as mosquitto/config/mosquitto.conf

Make a copy of zigbee2mqtt/config/configuration.example.yaml file as zigbee2mqtt/config/configuration.yaml (if you are restoring a backup copy your entire zigbee2mqtt config directory under zigbee2mqtt/config dir)

Make a copy of .env.dist file as .env under main directory and edit its content. E.g.:

HOMEASSISTANT_CONFIGDIR=/home/user/docker-compose/homeassistant
HOMEASSISTANT_LOCAL_URL=http://192.168.1.2:8123
HOMEASSISTANT_LOCAL_PORT=8123
HOMEASSISTANT_EXTERNAL_URL=https://example.duckdns.org:8124
HOMEASSISTANT_EXTERNAL_PORT=8124
MOSQUITTO_PORT=1883
Z2M_DEVICE_PORT=/dev/ttyUSB0
PORTAINER_PORT=9000

Running stack

I suggest to run containers one by one so...

Run in foreground with...

docker-compose up <container-name>

Run in background with...

docker-compose up <container-name> -d

Warning

Don't forget to portforward TCP ports 80 or 443 (to allow certificates autorenew) and HA external port

Running noip-renew

Build image

docker build noip-renew

Run temporary container and check the output

docker-compose run --rm noip-renew

If it's ok...schedule docker-compose run command in crontab
