Self-hosted Cookbook

If you're like me and love not only to self-host, but to constantly test new apps, you probably already discovered docker-compose as the fastest and easiest way towards that goal. There is, however, one problem: not all image authors are as great as linuxserver.io, whose docs are as simple as they should be: you just copy & paste docker-compose.yml and run docker-compose up -d and IT JUST WORKS!
This is how all images should be documented!
But unfortunately, it isn't!
Sometimes you have to spend a lot of time to make it work.
Hence - this repo.
The aims is to provide a ready-to-run recipes that you can just copy, paste and run.

How to use this cookbook

  • There are certain things that some recipes need which cannot be filled in due to security reasons.
    • example.com needs to be replaced with your own domain
    • username, password, etc. - should be replaced by your username & password
    • keys (like APP_KEY, SECRET etc.) should be regenerated using e.g. openssl rand -base64 32
  • Not all apps have been tested & described. These are marked as πŸ”— (external links).

  • Mealie
  • recipes πŸ”— - a bit complex, but feature rich food processing manager for your home (from shopping to the table). Importing doesn't seem to work as good as in the NextCloud's Cookbook (for some pages at least).
