Question: How to build a forked version using the edge add-on? about hassio-zigbee2mqtt HOT 7 CLOSED

Great, glad you got it working. @dzungpv I recommend reading the homeassistant dev docs on creating and add-on, particularly the first bit on local add-on testing and development in this case. Without knowing more details, it’s difficult to help. Logs are usually helpful; in the case above they pointed out the step in the Dockerfile that caused a problem.

If you’re using it as a local add-on, you’ll need to make changes to the config.json file as well. Without more info, I’d guess that the add-on isn’t actually building locally, but is using the image on docker hub published by me, consistent with the instructions of the configuration file.

Ahh.. I suspected something like that after I couldn't get it to work.
Originally I thought that the Docker file gets built locally and the git clone is done as part of the install. Seems that's not the case?
Literally the only change I wish to make is to one of the files in lib/homeassistant.js.
Is there a way to force the build of the docker container locally? I have not yet tried but I assume it's not as easy as removing the "image": "dwelch2101/zigbee2mqtt-edge-{arch}" in the config.json?

Yes, your understanding is partially correct. That is what happens, unless the add-on is specifies an image in the config. But the good news is, yes, it’s that easy. You should just have to remove that line and, assuming everything is setup in the right location for local add-ons, it should build locally. You can always check the logs for some hints on what’s going on during installation.

I want this too, try to build from your config but not work. Can you provide detail step by step to build the image @danielwelch ?
Due to this feature not complete Koenkk/zigbee2mqtt#232, pull request accept slow , i want to build my own image for testing hassio

I tried the suggested approach and after an extended wait the build/run failed with the following error:

18-09-11 07:57:37 INFO (MainThread) [hassio.addons.addon] Create Home-Assistant addon data folder /data/addons/data/local_zigbee2mqtt-edge

Here are the files I used: zigbee2mqtt-unique_id.zip

Any ideas what happened here?

And the solution.. Surely obvious if you know what you're doing...

Copy run.sh and set_config.py from the zigbee2mqtt directory to the zigbee2mqtt-edge directory (then the zigbee2mqtt-edge directory to the local addon directory).

Now when you build it will succeed, and use the repository specified in the Dockerfile.
