When I turn on info login (or even debug) I don't get the message I can see in the source that a plugin has been autodiscovered, so I presume the problem is mounting the plugin directory into the docker container when started with docker compose.

The current documentation only specifies how to mount the volumes when running with docker normally with the --volume command, so I tried to do the same thing with docker-compose.yaml and added a volume there, but I still can't make it work.

In other ways everything seems to work, it can connect using MQTT, data is being published over MQTT etc, but I just can't get the plugin to work.

So any help appreciated on getting plugins dir working with docker compose, and I can then suggest edits to the current documentation after I've made it work.

Sigh, as with everything, I find the solution right after posting an issue about it.

  volumes: 
   - ./plugins:/opt/deye_inverter_mqtt/plugins:ro

Adding that to the docker-compose.yaml makes it load the ha plug:
