DNS challenge with a reverse proxy is that answer. I’ve been doing this for a while now and it works great. Most other answers here are work arounds or not very robust.
This is the way: https://youtu.be/liV3c9m_OX8
I do this with authentik for sso
I have local only things like vaultwarden and external things like seafile.
Vaultwarden itself is actually one of the easiest docker apps to deploy…if you already have the foundation of your home lab setup correctly.
The foundation has a steep learning curve.
Domain name, dynamic DNS update, port forwarding, reverse proxy. Not easy to get all this working perfectly but once it does you can use the same foundation to install any app. If you already had the foundation working, additional apps take only a few minutes.
Want ebooks? Calibre takes 10 mins. Want link archiving? Linkwarden takes 10 mins
And on and on
The foundation of your server makes a huge difference. Well worth getting it right at the start and then building on it.
I use this setup: https://youtu.be/liV3c9m_OX8
Local only websites that use https (Vaultwarden) and then external websites that also use https (jellyfin).
The real power of obsidian is similar to why Raspberry Pi is so popular, it has such a large community that plugins are amazing and hard to duplicate.
That being said, I use this to live sync between all my devices. It works with almost the same latency as google docs but its not meant for multiple people editing the same file at the same time
I’ve got multiple apps using LDAP, oauth, and proxy on authentik, I’ve not had this happen.
I also use traefik as reverse proxy.
I didn’t manually create an outpost. Not sure what advantage there is unless you have a huge organization and run multiple redundant containers. Regardless there might be some bug here because I otherwise have the same setup as you.
I would definitely try uploading everything to the latest container version first
Does anyone know if dockge allows you to directly connect to a git repo to pull compose files?
This is what I like most about portainer. I work in the compose files from an IDE and the check them into my self hosted git repo.
Then on portainer, the stack is connected to the repo so only press a button to pull the latest compose and there is a check box to decide if I want the docker image to update or not.
Works really well and makes it very easy to roll back if needed.
I don’t remember all the details. They never went closed source, there was a difference in opinion between primary devs on the direction the project should take.
Its possible that was related to corporate funding but I don’t know that.
Regardless it was a fork where some devs stayed with owncloud and most went with NextCloud. I moved to NextCloud at this time as well.
OwnCloud now seems to have the resources to completely rewrite it from the ground up which seems like a great thing.
If the devs have a disagreement again then the code can just be forked again AFAIK just like any other open source project.
I only read the beginning but it says you can use it for private deployments but can’t use it commercially. Seems reasonable. Any specific issues?
I have no problem supporting devs but locking what should be core features behind a paywall in unacceptable for me.
I mean software that’s actively being developed can’t be called DOA. Even if it’s garbage now (and I don’t know if it is) doesn’t mean it can’t become useful at a future date.
Its not like a TV show where once released it can never be changed.
Ya it was bought by kiteworks which provides document management services for corps (which explains why that mention traceable file access in their features a lot).
That being said, they bought them in 2014 it seems and it’s been a decade now
Correcting: they were bought very recently, they have been accepting corporate funding for more than a decade however. That’s not bad in and of itself.
Thank your for providing first hand perspective. I’ll probably try to spin up a docker deployment for testing.
I don’t really plan to use many of the plugins since I think that was the down fall of NextCloud. Trying to do everything instead of doing it’s core job well.
Also looking through some of the issues and comments on github about no plans to implement basic features (file search on the android app) does not inspire confidence at all. One of the reasons I’m hoping the OwnCloud rewrite is good.
I know, I did as well.
The point of the post is that there is a very active full rewrite of the whole thing trying to ditch all the tech debt that NextCloud inherited from the OG owncloud (php, Apache etc)
I had NextCloud on a Ryzen 3600 with NVME zfs array. While faster that my previous Intel atom with HDD + SSD cache, Seafile blows it away in terms of speed and resiliency. It feels much more reliable with updates etc.
Exactly, Seafile is the best I’ve found so far but a clean re write of the basic sync features would be great.
Seafile for example has full text search locked behind a paywall even though tools like Elasticsearch could be integrated into it for free. Even the android app as filename search locked behind a paywall. You have to log into the website on your phone if you need to search.
Pathetic state of affairs.
I world strongly suggest a second device like an RPI with Gitea. There what I have.
I use portainer to pull straight from git and deploy
I use zfs so not sure about others but I thought all cow file systems have deduplication already? Zfs has it turned on by default. Why make your own file deduplication system instead of just using a zfs filesystem and letting that do the work for you?
Snapshots are also extremely efficient on cow filesystems like zfs as they only store the diff between the previous state and the current one so taking a snapshot every 5 mins is not a big deal for my homelab.
I can easily explore any of the snapshots and pull any file from and of the snapshots.
I’m not trying to shit on your project, just trying to understand its usecase since it seems to me ZFS provides all the benefits already
Start with this to learn how snapshots work
https://fedoramagazine.org/working-with-btrfs-snapshots/
Then here the learn how to make automatic snapshots with retention
https://ounapuu.ee/posts/2022/04/05/btrfs-snapshots/
I do something very similar with zfs snapshots and deduplication on. I have one ever 5 mins and save 1 hr worth then save 24 hourlys every day and 1 day for a month etc
For backup to remote locations you can send a snapshot offsite
Mastodon being 65% was a surprise to me for sure. What’s the best mastodon app?
Also how do I use it efficiently for tech related news and info? I never got into twitter.
Edit: I should probably specify for Android
Yes.
Vaultwarden.local.example.com
And
Jellyfin.example.com
This is the best and most robust way to do this
