homeserver

NB: This is not intended to be useful (except perhaps as a reference) for anyone other than myself.

My simple homeserver setup, running the following using Docker Compose:

• AdGuard Home
• calibre-flask
• calibre-web (much better, but doesn't have a simple HTML interface for Kindles)

Mostly copied from runtipi and runtipi-appstore, without the traefix reverse proxy, or the management API.

File structure

Each service has a directory (books etc), with (up to) two folders in each:

• conf: optionally version-controlled
• data: user or app data

Install Docker and Compose

Steps 1 and 2 from here and then:

apt install docker-compose-plugin

Secrets

cp .env.example .env

And then modify the USERNAME/PASSWORD variables in that file. They will default to admin/admin if not set.

App-specific setup

books

Symlink the folder containing the books:

ln -s /path/to/your/calibre/dir books/data

fava

mkdir -p fava/data
ln -s /path/to/beancount/dir fava/data/accounts
