Home Assistant Custom App: Samba share with features

Share your configuration over the network using Windows file sharing.

This is a fork of the official app!

Changes:

• Restore the possibility to specify interfaces in the configuration

---

Note: By default, the configuration is interfaces: [], so Samba will run on localhost only, and list possible interface values as notice in the log.

---

Note: Please use interfaces, the plural form, with an S at the end.

The official app in the past used a plain string and we were able to add multiple interfaces separated with a space, but this forked version uses a string list, because this is the way how we should specify multiple items, ie. a list, like veto_files and allow_hosts.

So the correct form is:

interfaces:
  - eth0
  - wlan0
