| page | SSH Server | Allow logging in remotely to Hass.io using SSH. | 2017-11-03 22:25 | true | false | true | true | true |
Setting up an SSH server allows access to your Hass.io folders with any SSH client. It also includes a command-line tool to access the Hass.io API. Try it out:
hassio help
This add-on will not enable you to install packages or do anything as root. This is not allowed with Hass.io.
To use this add-on, you must have a private/public key to log in. To generate them, follow the instructions for Windows and these for other platforms. It is possible to set a password for login since version 2.0 but for high security use private/public keys. You can not run both variants at the same time.
To start this add-on for the first time, you either need to include an ssh key (enclosed in quotation marks, on a single line without line breaks) or set a password in the options section.
{
"authorized_keys": [
"ssh-rsa AKDJD3839...== my-key"
],
"password": ""
}
The username for login over ssh is root. The complete login command is ssh root@hassio.local.
After logging in, you will find yourself in this add-ons container. The Home Assistant configuration directory is mounted on the path /config.
Configuration variables:
- authorized_keys (Optional): Your public keys for the authorized key file. Every element will be a line inside that file.
- password (Optional): Set a password for login. We do not recommend this variant.
This add-on is not compatible if Hass.io was installed via the generic Linux installer.
