Installation with Docker is straightforward. Adjust the following command so that /path/to/your/config/
points at the folder where you want to store your config and run it:
$ docker run -d --name="home-assistant" -v /path/to/your/config:/config -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro --net=host homeassistant/home-assistant
This will launch Home Assistant and serve the web interface from port 8123 on your Docker host.
When using boot2docker on OS X you are unable to map the local time to your Docker container. Replace `-v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro` with `-e "TZ=America/Los_Angeles"` (replacing America/Los_Angeles with [your timezone](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones))
If you change the config you have to restart the server. To do that you have 2 options.
- You can go to the
service developer tools, select the service
homeassistant/restart
and click "Call Service". - Or you can restart it from an terminal by running
docker restart home-assistant
