Run homebridge on boot

Open epheterson opened this issue 9 years ago • 4 comments

It'd be nice if homebridge-controller had the option to run homebridge on boot (with or without launching the homebridge controller UI).

The new local installer (#20) sets up the a launch agent for you.

That being said, I thought about creating a HomeBridgeServer app that would have an embedded node installation.

Hi Is there a way to make home bridge run on boot up on an already installed home bridge. Thanks

@Rigi03 I have a minor fix to do but then you will be able to run the installer and if you already have everything installed how we expect then it should skip those steps and only add the auto start on boot.

Mainly we use nvm so if you didn't then it would install that and set it up accordingly. The only thing you would have to do (worst case) is reinstall the plugins manually the nvm instance.

@Rigi03 But to reiterate. There is currently a bug in the local installer that I need to fix. So I wouldn't try it yet
