This installation of Home Assistant requires the Raspberry Pi to run [Raspbian Lite](https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/). The installation will be installed in a [Virtual Environment](/docs/installation/virtualenv) with minimal overhead. Instructions assume this is a new installation of Raspbian Lite.
|
|
|
|
Connect to the Raspberry Pi over SSH. Default password is `raspberry`.
|
|
You will need to enable SSH access. The Raspberry Pi website has instructions [here](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/remote-access/ssh/).
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ ssh pi@ipadress
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Changing the default password is encouraged.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ passwd
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Update the system.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ sudo apt-get update
|
|
$ sudo apt-get upgrade -y
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Install the dependencies.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ sudo apt-get install python3 python3-venv python3-pip
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Add an account for Home Assistant called `homeassistant`.
|
|
Since this account is only for running Home Assistant the extra arguments of `-rm` is added to create a system account and create a home directory.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ sudo useradd -rm homeassistant
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Next we will create a directory for the installation of Home Assistant and change the owner to the `homeassistant` account.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ cd /srv
|
|
$ sudo mkdir homeassistant
|
|
$ sudo chown homeassistant:homeassistant homeassistant
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Next up is to create and change to a virtual environment for Home Assistant. This will be done as the `homeassistant` account.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ sudo su -s /bin/bash homeassistant
|
|
$ cd /srv/homeassistant
|
|
$ python3 -m venv .
|
|
$ source bin/activate
|
|
```
|
|
Once you have activated the virtual environment you will notice the prompt change and then you can install Home Assistant.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
(homeassistant) homeassistant@raspberrypi:/srv/homeassistant $ pip3 install homeassistant
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Start Home Assistant for the first time. This will complete the installation, create the `.homeassistant` configuration directory in the `/home/homeassistant` directory and install any basic dependencies.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
(homeassistant) $ hass
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can now reach your installation on your Raspberry Pi over the web interface on [http://ipaddress:8123](http://ipaddress:8123).
