Gladys Assistant is a powerful open-source home automation solution that is designed to help users automate various tasks and make their lives easier. Fedora CoreOS is a lightweight, secure and container-focused operating system that is optimized for use in Kubernetes and other automated container platforms. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Gladys Assistant on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS.
Before you begin, make sure you have:
Gladys Assistant runs on Docker, so the first step is to install Docker on Fedora CoreOS. To do this, run the following command:
sudo rpm-ostree install docker
This command will install Docker on your system. Once the installation is complete, start and enable the Docker service:
sudo systemctl start docker
sudo systemctl enable docker
Once Docker is installed, you can install Gladys Assistant with the following command:

-e SQLITE_FILE_PATH=/var/lib/gladysassistant/gladys-production-2.db \
-e TZ=America/New_York \
--restart unless-stopped \
gladysassistant/gladys:latest
This command will pull the latest Gladys Assistant image and run it in a Docker container named "gladys". The command also mounts the Docker socket and sets some environment variables, including the timezone, the database path, and the production environment.
Once Gladys Assistant is installed, you can access it by navigating to http://[IP_ADDRESS]:8080, where [IP_ADDRESS] is the IP address of your Fedora CoreOS instance. You should see the Gladys Assistant login page.
