Home Server setup

I've done a whole bunch of stuff with my server setup before writing this. I'm probably missing steps. Bummer.

Here are a few guides and docs that proved invaluable:

• https://www.smarthomebeginner.com/traefik-2-docker-tutorial/
• https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/
• https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file

What's working

So far this is the list of things that I'm serving:

• Traefik + LetsEncrypt + Cloudflare for reverse proxy with SSL
• Authelia for 2FA auth (only for external network access)
• Portainer for giggles. I haven't actually used it directly yet.
• Organizr
• Medusa
• Calibre-Web
• Lazy Librarian
• PiHole -- Still in place, but I'm using NextDNS now.
• Plex
• SabNZB
• Sonarr
• Radarr
• Hydra
• Bazarr
• iSponsorBlockTV
• Home Assistant
• Docker Socket Proxy
• Garbage Collection

TODO

• Plex (currently hosted on Synology)
• SabNZB (also on Synology)
• https://ombi.io/
• OwnCloud / NextCloud / etc
• HomeBridge for HomeKit (currently hosted on Synology)
• Radarr
• Lidarr
• Watchtower
• GitLab

Maybe

• Firefox
• Guacamole
• VSCode

Setup

• cp env.example .env
• Update the values in .env. I'm using cloudflare for DNS. See https://www.smarthomebeginner.com/traefik-2-docker-tutorial/#4_Proper_DNS_Records
• I have two config directories. Things that aren't as finicky go on a NFS mount (to my synology). Something just don't play nice with being on a network mount. So I have another directory for those configs. Ergo $DOCKERDIR and $LOCALDOCKERDIR.
• Also I have my synology SMB mounted with the following attributes: //$IP/audiobooks /mnt/audiobooks cifs user,vers=3.0,uid=$USER,gid=$GROUP,rw,suid,nobrl,file_mode=0600,dir_mode=0700,credentials=/etc/cifspwd 0 0. Replace $IP,$USER,$GROUP with the correct values.
• Create networks:

# docker network create t2_proxy
# docker network create socket_proxy
# Alternatively, you can specify the gateway and subnet to use
docker network create --gateway 192.168.90.1 --subnet 192.168.90.0/24 t2_proxy
# docker network create --gateway 192.168.91.1 --subnet 192.168.91.0/24 socket_proxy
# Subnet range 192.168.0.0/16 covers 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255

Traefik specific

• touch the traefik.log file
• chmod 600 traefik.log

Authelia

• https://www.smarthomebeginner.com/docker-authelia-tutorial/

pihole

• touch pihole/pihole.log

portainer

• After running for the first time, add a new docker endpoint and set the url to socket-proxy:2375
• Settings -> Endpoints -> Add Endpoint -> Docker.
• Fill in "Endpoint URL" with socket-proxy:2375 and give it a name
• Not sure if this is required but I removed the "primary" endpoint since the docker.sock was not available any more
