Home Assistant with socat for remote zwave

Based on homeassistant/home-assistant image, published on docker hub. Please report issues on github. Instead of using a locally-connected zwave device (usb stick/etc), we can use a serial device mapped over the network with ser2net and then map it to a local zwave serial device with socat. This docker container ensures that

• a zwave device is mapped in the local docker with socat
• home assistant is running If there are any failures, both socat and home assistant will be restarted.

Environment options:

All homeassistant-home-assistant image options are available and on top of that a few others have been added:

DEBUG_VERBOSE=0 (Set to 1 to see more information; Default: 0)

PAUSE_BETWEEN_CHECKS=2 (In seconds, how much time to wait between checking running processes; Default: 2)

LOG_TARGET=/log.log (Path to log file. Ommit to write logs to stdout; Default: stdout)

SOCAT_ZWAVE_TYPE="tcp"

SOCAT_ZWAVE_HOST="192.168.5.5"

SOCAT_ZWAVE_PORT="7676" (Where socat should connect to - will be used as tcp://192.168.5.5:7676)

SOCAT_ZWAVE_LINK="/dev/zwave" (What the zwave device should be mapped to. Use this in your home assistant configuration file.)
