@tikilou: sorry about that! The systemd units were requiring the environment files to be present, which aren't installed by the package (since they aren't required, and cannot be created for the user unit, anyway).

I modified the unit files to optionally source the environment files: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=hacompanion&id=a88d6c69c72fc1593086a763f133d79af62493f9

That should solve your issue.

But its working with "sudo hacompanion -config=/etc/hacompanion/config.toml"

@hobbypunk great idea, thanks! Just pushed up the change. However, I made the user-level unit get its config from the user's home, not /etc.

Heyho,

i added a user service file:

[Unit]
Description=Daemon that sends local hardware information to Home Assistant
After=network.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/hacompanion -config /etc/hacompanion/config.toml
Restart=on-failure

[Install]
WantedBy=graphical-session.target

i think it is a good idea to have the option to run the companion app after login as the given user :)
