Installation Guides

The app can be installed different ways, with the best support of the docker-based deployments. This includes the Home Assistant and Unraid installation approaches. See details below.

Docker (Fully Supported)

NetAlertX is fully supported in Docker environments, allowing for easy setup and configuration. Follow the official guide to get started:

This guide will take you through the process of setting up NetAlertX using Docker Compose or standalone Docker commands.

Home Assistant (Fully Supported)

You can install NetAlertX also as a Home Assistant addon Home Assistant via the alexbelgium/hassio-addons repository. This is only possible if you run a supervised instance of Home Assistant. If not, you can still run NetAlertX in a separate Docker container and follow this guide to configure MQTT.

Unraid (Partial Support)

The Unraid template was created by the community, so it's only partially supported. Alternatively, here is another version of the Unraid template.

Bare-Metal Installation (Experimental)

If you prefer to run NetAlertX on your own hardware, you can try the experimental bare-metal installation. Please note that this method is still under development, and are looking for maintainers to help improve it.
