Homelab Portal

This repository provide some simple scaffolding to build a landing page for your homelab. You can link to all your stuff, including pretty icons, and your apps will show up under the same top URL, like they all work together somehow.

There are lots of other things like this around. Probably the shiniest is called "Heimdall". I made this one because I didn't want to run yet another database or a PHP server when I am perfectly happy editing a JSON file and having my browser do all the work.

portal.json

You define all your services in /web/portal.json. It works like this:

[
    {
        "name": "My Thing",
        "href": "https://myhost.example.org/path/to/my/thing/",
        "icon": "https://myhost.example.org/path/to/my/thing/icons.png"
    },
    {
        "name": "Another thing",
        "href": "https://example.net/",
        "target": "_blank"
    },
    {
        "name": "Stat",
        "href": "/stat.html",
        "app": "stat"
    }
]

Some notes:

• "target": "_blank" will cause clicks to open in a new tab
• "app": "stat" makes the icon be the built-in CPU stats pie chart

Other uses for this

Since the portal stuff is all static files, you could just not use any of that, and instead use this as a service to provide CPU stats. Just open /stats.html instead of /. Or write your own ECMAScript code that imports stat.mjs.
