HOME SERVER

QGS

This is the got repo for the settings of my home server.

The goal is to store every config and install scripts in this repo to reproduce the home server at any time and to maintain it.

Architecture

The architecture is the following :

Home server | +- Caddy | +- Docker | | | +- Nextcloud AIO | | | +- Forgejo

Tools

The installed tools given in the architecture are

Caddy

Powerful and simple solution to have a reverse proxy.

Docker

A containerization tool. Its containers are :

Nextcloud

Personnal cloud for home and family.

The Docker command to run the Nextcloud AIO (All In One) mastercontainer for the first time is :

Forgejo

Self hosted git to easily work on home projects.

Repo structure

sererroot

The serverroot folder represents the root of the server's filesystem. The usual folders such as /etc/ are present. The files contained are to be placed on their correspoding folders in the server and completed if needed.

Containers

The folder with all the containers. The compose.yaml file is at its root. Every service (i.e. container in the compose) have their own folder with a specific .yaml file that is included in the compose.yaml and potentially additional documentation in a README and some files. The Containers folder can be copied anywhere fit on the machine. Once copied, to start the services, cd in Containers and launch the docker compose docker compose up -d.

Installation

OS

The server usually runs on Debian

ddclient

Once ddclient is installed and its config file from serverroot is placed, complete the login and password fields and verify that the IP can be updated by running

sudo ddclient -daemon=0 -verbose -debug

And check that a SUCCESS is received.

Docker

Follow the doc of docker. For the containers, read the specific README files for more information. If nothing is stated, setting up the docker compose for the first time should automatically create all the containers and volumes automatically.

Caddy

Follow the doc of Caddy. Once installed and the config files from serverroot are placed, restart the service sudo systemctl restart caddy and also make sure that it is enabled.
