Receive "noble warning: adapter state unauthorized" when Homebridge runs in Docker container about homebridge-mi-hygrothermograph HOT 11 CLOSED

How are you running the container? Docker can't access bluetooth on the host by default. I think you might need to pass --net=host and possibly --privileged. Anyway this is not an issue directly related to this plugin but how to run bluetooth related stuff through docker so I'll close this.

from homebridge-mi-hygrothermograph.

I run it like this:

docker run -d --restart=always --net=host \ --name=homebridge \ -v /storage/homebridge:/homebridge \ -e HOMEBRIDGE_CONFIG_UI=1 \ -e HOMEBRIDGE_CONFIG_UI_PORT=8581 \ oznu/homebridge:raspberry-pi

Adding --privileged, makes no difference: "noble warning: adapter state unauthorized, please run as root or with sudo"

from homebridge-mi-hygrothermograph.

You might need to add some capabilities to the container. I use CAP_NET_RAW when running homebridge in systemd to allow access to the bluetooth socket without sudo. You can try to add it with --cap-add=NET_RAW you might also want to try --cap-add=SYS_ADMIN --cap-add=NET_ADMIN.

You can probably find a lot more information by googling for "docker bluetooth" or something like that. Good luck!

I've tried to turn off BT on host (systemctl stop bluetooth) - it helped a little bit - now I see this in logs:

Can you try running hciconfig hci0 up before starting homebridge?

@hannseman
When bluetooth is enabled on host (LibreELEC@Raspberry Pi 3 B+) I receive:

[4/13/2019, 8:17:12 PM] [Temperature & Humidity] Stop scanning. (unauthorized)

When I disable bluetooth on host (systemctl stop bluetooth) I receive this:

[4/16/2019, 8:49:06 PM] [Temperature & Humidity] Stop scanning. (poweredOff)

In case I'll run hciconfig hci0 on host it will enable bluetooth and I will get again:

[4/13/2019, 8:17:12 PM] [Temperature & Humidity] Stop scanning. (unauthorized)

With external bluetooth dongle I receive the same error:

Stop scanning. (unauthorized)

Unfortunately :( I've tried everything: like docker run -ti --net=host,docker run -ti --privileged --net=host etc.

@mrdc Did you install the noble dependencies via sudo apt-get install bluetooth bluez libbluetooth-dev libudev-dev and run sudo setcap cap_net_raw+eip $(eval readlink -f `which node`) as the suggested by the noble README which is referred to in the log? Of course, both must executed inside the Docker container.

Yes, I've fixed it with

sudo setcap cap_net_raw+eip $(eval readlink -f which node)

from homebridge-mi-hygrothermograph.

I have to run "sudo setcap cap_net_raw+eip $(eval readlink -f which node)" after every restart to make bluetooth work. Is there a way to do this automatically in the docker-compose?

from homebridge-mi-hygrothermograph.

@plantoschka have you found a way to automate it? To run it after restart?
