Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

For example, if I want a website where users can I signin to choose options such as changing or restarting a Docker container. Or various other systems level options available from a web interface.

I'm looking for something in the cloud but also something self hosted at home.

Sorry, not an answer to your exact question... Dockge might be the answer if you need a web UI to manage Docker containers.

~~If you need something more specific, like a button dashboard to run custom commands, perhaps you could build your own with Vite (Node.js). You will need to understand basic HTML, CSS and JavaScript.~~ (EDIT: OliveTin makes more sense.)

As for authentication, you could configure a basic authentication on your favourite reverse proxy (such as Nginx), or look for something more advanced such as OIDC/OAuth2 through Keycloak.

For a button dashboard as you put it I once got OliveTin recommended, haven't yet set it up though.

This is exactly what I wanted. Thank you!!!!

OliveTin is exactly what I wanted (tbh, was heard to read with your crammed together text, thanks as well @bonenode@piefed.social for helping me spot it! )

Keycloak, Pocket ID, Authentik, anything of the sort does sort great as well! Thanks for the recommendation for the follow-up step! :-)

Ah! Sorry for the textdump, and thanks for the feedback. I'll keep it in mind in the future.
