Installation via QNAP (Console)

1. Put package.json, install.sh and config.json files to a shared folder in your NAS. (for example, my path is /share/homes/admin/Docker/homebridge/)

2. Go to ControlPanel > [Network & File Services sections] > Telnet/ SSH Make sure your NAS ssh is open and you know the port number. (for example, my NAS IP is: 192.168.1.2 port: 22)

3. Open a terminal, link to your nas via ssh. (For windows users, you may need Putty)

$ ssh -p 22 [email protected]
[email protected]'s password: <type your account password, it will not shown>

4. there is either or two method, choose it you like.

4A. Run it using docker run command

Use docker command for start the homebridge

[~] # docker run -d --restart=always --net=host -p 51826:51826 -v /share/homes/admin/Docker/homebridge:/root/.homebridge marcoraddatz/homebridge:latest

• Port 51826 is a port defined in config.json, you can edit it and change that.
• Path /share/homes/admin/Docker/homebridge is the physical path of your NAS.
• Path /root/.homebridge is a path in container.

Then, you will see a new running container in Container Station web interface.

4B. Setup using docker-compose

Create a new plain text file named docker-compose.yml in the same folder.

[~] # cd /share/homes/admin/Docker/
[/share/homes/admin/Docker/homebridge] # vi docker-compose.yml

the contents is

version: '2'
services:
  homebridge:
    image: marcoraddatz/homebridge:latest
    restart: always
    network_mode: host
    ports:
      - "51826:51826"
    volumes:
      - /share/homes/admin/Docker/homebridge:/root/.homebridge

then using the command to start

[/share/homes/admin/Docker/homebridge] # docker-compose up -d

when you to want to stop container, using this command

[/share/homes/admin/Docker/homebridge] # docker-compose down

it will stop container and remove that.

also, you can hand over to Container Station web interface do the remaining stuff.
