🔧 How to install

🐳 Docker

docker run -d --restart=always -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -v home-station:/data -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock --network home-station --name home-station ghcr.io/sharknoon/home-station

Home Station is now running at http://home-station.localhost

Note

If your ports 80 and 443 are already occupied, feel free to test Home Station with other ports:
-p 8080:80 -p 8433:443

🎶 Docker Compose

curl -L -o compose.yml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sharknoon/home-station/main/packages/home-station/compose.yml
docker compose up -d

Home Station is now running at http://home-station.localhost

Note

If your ports 80 and 443 are already occupied, feel free to test Home Station with other ports by editing the downlaoded compose.yml file:

ports:
   - 8080:80
   - 8433:443

Important

On macOS Safari doesn't resolve *.localhost subdomains. To avoid this issue, use a different browser like Firefox or Chrome. However, accessing a hosted Home Station via a domain works just fine.

🚧 Roadmap

• 🛟 Automatic Backups to popular cloud providers like Google Drive, Onedrive etc... as well as your own hardware
• 🛡️ Single sign-on for all your apps
• 🔗 Multi host support (allows multiple machines to be managed by one Home Station)

Motivation

I have been using Portainer for all my docker compose stacks and traefik as my reverse proxy. Installing a new open-source app incorporated at least the following steps:

1. Copying the docker-compose.yml (or creating one from a given docker run command)
2. Applying proxy settings in the form of labels to it
3. Adding it to the reverse proxy network
4. Creating volumes to persist data

One day I had enough, because I already had installed ~100 compose stacks this way. I wanted to create an opiniated approach to installing apps, that just requires one click and is the same for everybody.

The goal with Home Station is to allow you to focus on using the apps, rather than on deploying them.
