Getting started

Homer is a full static html/js dashboard, generated from the source in /src using webpack. It's meant to be served by an HTTP server, it will not work if you open dist/index.html directly over file:// protocol.

See documentation for information about the configuration (assets/config.yml) options.

Using docker

docker run -p 8080:8080 -v /your/local/assets/:/www/assets b4bz/homer:latest

Default assets will be automatically installed in the /www/assets directory. Use UID and/or GID env var to change the assets owner (docker run -e "UID=1000" -e "GID=1000" [...]).

Using the release tarball (prebuilt, ready to use)

Download and extract the latest the latest release (homer.zip) from the release page, rename the assets/config.yml.dist file to assets/config.yml, and put it behind a webserver.

wget https://github.com/bastienwirtz/homer/releases/latest/download/homer.zip
unzip homer.zip
cd homer
cp assets/config.yml.dist assets/config.yml
npx serve # or python -m http.server 8010 or apache, nginx ...

Build manually

# Using yarn (recommended)
yarn install
yarn build

# **OR** Using npm
npm install
npm run build

Then your dashboard is ready to use in the /dist directory.

Roadmap

• Add new themes.
• Add support for custom service card (add custom feature to some service / app link)
