Installation

This package will deploy Homebridge and the Homebridge UI natively on your Synology NAS. It will create a new shared named homebridge to store the Homebridge configuration and user data.

This package will leverage the Synology supplied NodeJS v20 package.

Install Homebridge:

1. Download the correct SPK for your system from https://synology.homebridge.io (see above for arch types):
2. Go back to Package Center and click "Manual Install" - select the .spk file you downloaded.
3. Click Agree when warned about using a package from an unknown publisher.
4. Click Done to confirm installation.

Please note low power device make take 10-15 minutes to install the package.

The Homebridge UI app starts on port 8581. The default username is admin with password admin.

If you have the Synology Firewall enabled, make a rule to allow access to port 8581 and the port Homebridge was assigned too.
