Installation on a Armbian system

armbian runs on a wide-variety of ARM development boards. Currently there are around 50 boards supported inclusive the OrangePi family, Cubieboard, Pine64, and Odroid.

Python 3.5.3 or later is required.

Setup Python and pip:

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install python3-dev python3-pip
Code language: JavaScript (javascript)

Now that you installed python, there are two ways to install Home Assistant:

1. It is recommended to install Home Assistant in a virtual environment to avoid using root, using the VirtualEnv instructions
2. Alternatively, you can install Home Assistant for the user you created when first booting Armbian:

$ sudo pip3 install homeassistant
$ hass --open-ui

Running these commands will:

• Install Home Assistant
• Launch Home Assistant and serve the web interface on http://localhost:8123
• the configuration files will be created in /home/{user}/.homeassistant
