Rebuilding my Home Assistant (Raspberry Pi 4 Model B with HA in docker).

 

I have no problem adding the (now depreciated) Z-Wave integration, but I can't get the Z-Wave JS (new replacement integration) added.

 

When attempted to add the integration it prompts for a URL, which is pre-filled with ws://localhost:3000. But if I submit that value it gives the error "Failed to Connect". The same thing happens if I replace localhost with the pis actual IP address or with 127.0.0.1.

Looks like the new Z-Wave JS integration requires a separate add-on, and the container version of HA doesn't support add-ons. So I reinstalled the standard (non-container) version.

I've got HACS installed in my Home Assistant Docker instance, don't know if that helps. I'm still using the legacy zwave

I use z-way on a Razberry and an mqtt app add-on to communicate with HA.  I quite like the approach as it keeps my z-wave device management quite independent to HA.   Note, that you needn't use z-way either - you could purchase any z-way hub that supports mqtt and communicate with HA using the mosquito mqtt integration.

 

See here if this has any interest:
