No standalone usage possible – URL overrides breaking function

[ateodorescu]

To solve this problem I had to include the following statements in my config.js file:

window.AUTH_TOKEN_OVERRIDE = 'my-auth-token';
window.SERVER_URL_OVERRIDE = 'http://' + location.hostname + ':8123';
window.WS_URL_OVERRIDE = 'ws://' + location.hostname + ':8123/api/websocket';

Just add those lines before or after the CONFIG declaration.

Using the External url didn't work so I had to do the above trick.

When using the addon the idea is that those URLs are automatically detected and don't need to be manually set so I would say that this is the main issue here.

I'm not sure why though, without having some way of reproducing this issue.

Some time before Homeassistant had settings in the UI for defining the "External" URL but it seem that this is gone now. There still seems to be a way to set those from the configuration file (https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/basic/) so you could try that if you want to get this working before I have a chance to look closer.

I would guess that it's just not possible to automatically detect the external URL in some cases, in which case I would probably have to just introduce that setting in the addon settings itself.
