quick start

Setting Up Matter Server Add-on In Home Assistant OS

Add Matter Device 

 

Step by step

 

step 1.your Matter Server is up and running.

Search for “Matter Server Add-on”.

 Install Matter Server Add-on

Then click on “Add Matter Integration” from the bottom right-hand corner and search for Matter and click on “Matter”

step 3.Adding A Matter-enabled Device to Home Assistant

Now to add the Matter device, you will have to use the Home Assistant App for Android or IOS

 

Once you have the app and you open it, go to the “Device & Services” settings page, click on “Add Integration” in the bottom right-hand corner and search for Matter.

HassOS

Start the Matter Server add-on to make the WebSocket available to Home Assistant Core.

HassOS没有办法修改镜像，不能设置代理。在不好的网络环境下，它能安装完成都是一个奇迹；

Matter 服务器在第一次配对完毕后，会尝试去 Github 上拉证书。如果你不能设置代理，那么你的证书就拉不下来，你的设备就完全没办法连接。
