# Home Assistant Configuration
Here's my [Home Assistant](https://home-assistant.io/) configuration. I have installed HA on an [Intel NUC SkullCanyon](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DJ9XS52/) with [32GB RAM](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015YPB8ME/) and [500GB NVMe SSD](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LYFKJR7/). I am currently running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on the NUC and used the [virtual environment](https://home-assistant.io/docs/installation/virtualenv/) approach to install HA.
I regularly update my configuration files. You can check my current HA version [here](.HA_VERSION). If you like anything here, Be sure to :star2: my repo!
## Other things that I run on my NUC
* [Home Assistant](https://home-assistant.io/)
* [Homebridge](https://github.com/home-assistant/homebridge-homeassistant)
* [Plex](https://www.plex.tv/) media server in a Docker container using the command
```
docker create \
--name plex --net=host --restart=always \
-e TZ="America/New York" \
-e PUID=1000 -e PGID=1000 \
-e PLEX_CLAIM="" \
-p 32400:32400 \
-v /docker/containers/plex/config:/config \
-v /docker/containers/plex/transcode:/transcode \
-v /mnt/music:/data/music:shared \
-v "/mnt/media/TV Shows":/data/tvshows:shared \
-v /mnt/bollywood:/data/bollywood:shared \
-v /mnt/hollywood:/data/movies:shared \
plexinc/pms-docker:plexpass
```
* [Machinebox](https://machinebox.io/) image tagging service in a Docker container using the following command. First obtain your [API key](https://machinebox.io/login) and assign it to `MB_KEY` and then run the container using (you can access the Tagbox interface at http://ip.ad.dr.es:8081):
```
$ sudo docker run --name=machinebox -p 8081:8080 -e "MB_KEY=$MB_KEY" -d machinebox/tagbox
```
## Some of the devices and services that I use with HA
* [Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00X0AWA6E/) for Z-Wave control

* Presence detection is the cornerstone for my setup and I use an elaborate approach as explained [here](https://community.home-assistant.io/t/presence-detection-with-multiple-devices-multiple-trackers/4335). Currently, I combine the information from the following device trackers using a `python_script` and a Bayesian binary sensor. Here are the components that I use for presence:
* [Unifi WAP](https://home-assistant.io/components/device_tracker.unifi/) for network-based device tracking
* [OwnTracks](https://home-assistant.io/components/device_tracker.owntracks/), [Geofency](https://home-assistant.io/components/device_tracker.geofency/), and Life360 [custom_component](/custom_components/sensor/life360.py) for tracking our iOS devices
