✨ ABOUT REQUESTS

[alexbelgium]

Hi everyone,

When I was beginning to use HomeAssistant, I saw tons of possibilities with the system and was a bit frustrated when an app that I wanted was not available as an addon. I therefore started this repo. When people started asking me to port new apps that I was not using myself, I understood where they came from and tried to implement as many as possible.

Everyone is therefore free to make a request through the Issues system. However, I do not provide a guarantee neither of timings, nor of implementation. Globally, the key factors for implementation by order of priority are :

• Is the image from linuxserver.io ? They have the best dockerhub images, that are very easily converted in addons
• Number of people interested in the addon
• Quality of existing dockerhub image

Maintaining all those addons take a lot of time, although I recognize that people help me a lot through bug reports & proposing PR to improve the repo. So please don't hesitate to help improve things where you can, it will be much appreciated and will benefit everyone!

Have a nice day everyone

As someone with a longish standing request that is slowly being worked on, I appreciate all you do. Even if the end result is something that doesn't happen, the effort alone is appreciated. I personally do not expect anything, as you are doing this in your free time. You owe us nothing, after all. ^_^

I do have one suggestion though. Maybe move requests over into discussions? That way debate and voting would be easier in general, and the issues section could remain for actual issues.

Good idea. I see that the HA community addon did this. I'll look at it as an improvement! I just want to keep visibility on the requests so I don't forget them :) I've also added a script that checks if issues or requests are open, and notify those on top of the relevant addon readme, I'll have to see if the github api exposes discussions in the same way as issues. Thanks for the proposal!

I don't think I'll be able to add new addons for the moment
