Hey everyone! I’m sort of still green for selfhosting, but I wanted to share my setup so far:

The following services are selfhosted in docker

  • Audiomuse (smart music tagging, mood based and all that)
  • Navidrome for music hosting
  • Jellyfin for TV shows (not a lot) and Films (not a lot again, but steadily increasing)
  • Radicale for serving contacts/TODOs/calendar
  • SFTPGo to act as my drive
  • Kavita for ebooks and manga (I have tons of both)
  • Glance for homepage
  • forgejo for git forge hosting

The system specs are kind of visible in the homepage, so I won’t spell them out here again. Mostly an old optiplex running arch, though I want to change it to nixos later on.

System tools:

  • nushell for shell
  • calibre for ebook management and tagging + fanficfare plugin to download fanfictions
  • Caddy for reverse proxy (so I don’t have to remember ports)
  • netbird for VPN (also because it allows me to set wildcard DNS resolution for nodes, so I don’t have to set up a dedicated pi-hole or adguard)
  • Handbrake and ffmpeg for processing videos and such
  • beets for tagging music
  • a sysinfo script to generate system information for glance to consume
  • Probably other things too, I’m forgetting

Everything is accessible only via netbird, and external inbound connections are firewalled off

Apart from that, I eventually plan on adding the following as well:

  • Immich for photo hosting
  • Vaultwarden for passwords
  • Gollum (still debating on alternatives) for a webUI for my notes
  • Paperless-NGX

I’m still thinking on more that I can add. Note that whatever I add should not need an inbound connection/stable IP address, since I don’t intend to expose the server to the public. Any suggestions/tips? Thanks!

UPDATE: Forgot to add, I’d probably add homebox too, for inventory management 😅

UPDATE 2: I’m silly, I forgot that I’m also looking into self-hosted RSS feed readers 😆

    How are you accessing all of it? Custom URLs? Reverse proxy?

    Forgejo is for private projects only? Are you syncing them with some other git providers? If now how are you baking it up?

    Vaultwarden for passwords

    This one was the most tricky for me due to HTTPS but I finally got it working on desktop and android.

      I access it using the hostname of the device (since netbird and tailscale both let you do that)

      I also open docker ports only for localhost, and use caddy to reverse proxy subdomains to the respective localhost ports. Less port clutter from outside this way. Ofcourse things like SFTPGo’s SFTP port is an exception

      Also, vaultwarden requires HTTPS?? Ah drat, that’s not good :/ I don’t have experience with that.

        Yes, the clients work only over HTTPS. Caddy can handle that:

        vaultwarden.cosmos.internal {
        tls /opt/caddy/certificate.crt /opt/caddy/private.key
        handle /* {
                reverse_proxy http://localhost:8081/
        }
}

        The certs need to be generated for this specific domain:

        openssl req   -x509   -newkey rsa:4096   -keyout key.pem   -out cert.pem   -sha256   -days 36500   -nodes   -subj "/C=XX/ST=StateName/L=CityName/O=CompanyName/OU=CompanySectionName/CN=cosmos.internal"
