Basic script setup to run the bridge on a pi.
Create the directory and make sure that ha-bridge-2.0.6.jar is in your /home/pi/habridge directory.
```
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ mkdir habridge
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cd habridge
pi@raspberrypi:~/habridge $ wget https://github.com/bwssytems/ha-bridge/releases/download/v2.0.6/ha-bridge-2.0.6.jar
```
Edit the shell script for starting:
```
pi@raspberrypi:~/habridge $ nano starthabridge.sh
```
Then cut and past this, modify any locations that are not correct
```
cd /home/pi/habridge
rm /home/pi/habridge/habridge-log.txt
nohup java -jar /home/pi/habridge/ha-bridge-2.0.6.jar > /home/pi/habridge/habridge-log.txt 2>&1 &
chmod 777 /home/pi/habridge/habridge-log.txt
```
Exit and save the file with ctrl-X and follow the prompts and then execute on the command line:
```
pi@raspberrypi:~/habridge $ chmod u+x starthabridge.sh
```
Then execute the script:
```
pi@raspberrypi:~/habridge $ ./starthabridge.sh
```
You should now be running the bridge. Check for errors:
```
pi@raspberrypi:~/habridge $ tail -f habridge-log.txt
```
## Available Arguments
Arguments are now deprecated. The ha-bridge will use the old -D arguments and populate the configuration screen, Brisge Control Tab, which can now be saved to a file and will not be needed. There is only one optional argument that overrides and that is the location of the configuration file. The default is the relative path "data/habridge.config".
