I have NGINX access to Home Assistant Container working fine with Home Assistant running in Host Network mode.
DOCKER NETWORK HOST HOW TO
I’ve been scavenging through the Docker documentation trying to figure out how to set this up in a way that I can refer to my MQTT container by name instead of fixed IP address, but without moving Home Assistant off of network_mode: host, I don’t see an option to do that.Īny advice or thoughts greatly appreciated. when running upgrades or something else), I may end up with a different IP address for the MQTT server container and then Home Assistant fails to connect.

Now, I can manually lookup the MQTT servers IP address and setup the MQTT integration in Home Assiatnt using the IP address, but when the docker compose network ends up being recreated (e.g. However, to connect to the MQTT server from Home Assistant, using the MQTT server container name doens’t work, since Home Assistant runs in network_mode: host and isn’t part of the same docker composer network. I can use the container name in ozedaemon to connect to the MQTT server (since they end up on the same custom compose network). I use docker-compose to run my Home Assistant instance in network_mode: host together with an MQTT server and ozwdaemon in separate containers.
