I would like to start using floorplans/maps with various device actions on them. This means I need locally stored images, that can be seen over the network.
I managed to upload images to HA, but as they need to be accessed with a token, I either need to refresh the token every day (no), or have an image with a long-lived token (also not a good idea).
How have other people done things?
Is it worth spinning up an http image host?
Or maybe throwing files into an nginx folder inside HA?
Thoughts on a postcard :)
If you’re using HAOS (ie not running in docker), there is an official add-on called “File Editor” that allows you to edit the config.yaml and upload files from the UI. It’s not perfect but gets the job done.
That’s a very good shout, as it’ll save me mucking about in bash.
