Home Assistant is a home automation platform running on Python 3. It is able to track and control all devices at home and offer a platform for automating control. Port binding is 8123. Home Assistant is exposed to your hosts' network in order to discover devices on your LAN. That means that it does not sit inside docker's network.

Configurator

The following instructions can be found here

To launch the Configurator you will first need to access the terminal for Home assistant docker exec -it hassio /bin/bash

download configurator.py (this only needs to be done once) wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/danielperna84/hass-configurator/master/configurator.py

Then run the python script with python configurator.py

The script will activate port 3218 and you can navigate to "your ip":3218 in your web browser

when you are done got back to the terminal and press Ctrl+C to stop the configurator exit to leave the home assistant terminal.

Next time you need to access the terminal type docker exec -it hassio /bin/bash then python configurator.py

The link also mentions how to make it available in the Home Assistant homepage.
