Homey Self-Hosted Server on Synology | Megathread

Tried search…can you explain what is this set-up?

Only the how is not officially supported by Athom, but it’s published and maintained by Athom’s Abe a.k.a. Doekse.

Did anyone update their SHS yet?

The installation manual mentions it should be done through Container Manager (I normally update my Docker containers by re-pulling the latest image with Portainer or Dockhand).

But Homey has a built-in option (in the app or by local access) too:

Did anyone try this?
Is this safe to use?

And did anyone manage to update by Portainer or Dockhand perhaps?

Funny Henk, we both talked about this topic before ;-):

My experience is that this update option doesen’t work at all with the SHS-Synology constellation.

The Docker project from Athom with the bulid option does the job of downloading the latest version installing the image and buliding the container. But the steps of stopping and deleteing the old configuration manually is a little bit annoying.

I try to install the app ‘Afval herinnering’ but I cannot find in my Self-Hosted Server. Is it possible that the app is available for Pro or Cloud but not for the Homey Self-Hosted Server?

I have it installed on my Homey SHS without issue.

How are you trying to install it?

I just add a new device via the Homey-app on mu phone.

I believe the app does not have any “devices” to install, so you cannot install it by adding a new device.

Instead, go to “More… > Apps” and click the “+” in the top right corner. Then search for the app.

Yes, I was able to find it and use it in a flow. Thanks.
