How to start raspap inside the docker container if it is not running? (Running as an addon in homeassistant)

[raphael303]

Hi
I have been, unsuccessfully, trying to get RaspAP to run as an addon in HomeAssistant. Since Addons in homeassistant run docker containers and I simply want raspap to run, without any communication with homeassistant, it seemed a straight forward thing to do. I will use a USBmodem and USBWlanInterface for RaspAP

I succeeded to a part, but as to my testing RaspAP was not running within the container. From the command line I found raspap.service, looked at it and within found servicestart.sh . I tried to run raspAP with that, but that relies on systemd which again does not work in the container.

I wonder, how would I start RaspAp in the container, without servicestart.sh?

In case anybody tries to do that, I share here my Homeassistant addonfiles.
Dockerfile:

ARG BUILD_FROM
FROM ghcr.io/raspap/raspap-docker:latest

# Copy data for add-on
COPY run.sh /
RUN chmod a+x /run.sh

CMD ["/run.sh"]

config.yaml

name: "RaspAP"
description: "RaspAP running in a Docker container"
version: "1.0.0"
slug: "raspap"
init: false
arch:
  - armhf
  - armv7
  - aarch64
host_network: true
privileged: true
devices:
  - /dev/ttyUSB0
  - /dev/ttyUSB1
  - /sys/fs/cgroup:/sys/fs/cgroup:rw
map:
  - config:rw
ports:
  80/tcp: 80

run.sh

  #!/bin/sh

# Run RaspAP
tail -f /dev/null

I believe @NL-TCH has some experience integrating RaspAP-Docker with HomeAssistant. He might be able to advise you here.

hey all,
Yeah indeed systemd does not work in docker (for now) without the cgroups fix. The cgroup option is not available in HA.
I however do not know how to start raspap without the service file.
