Home Server Docker Services

The definitive services for your home server.

TL;DR

chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh hsds-cli
hsds setup quiet

Requirements

Any Debian based Linux distribution.

How to Install

Just run the install command. It will install Docker and all dependencies to run the services.

chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh hsds-cli

Usage

Inside the _archive folder are the services. Just move the folder of the services that you want to run 1 level up.

.
├── README.md
├── install.sh
└── _archive
    ├── bazarr
    │   ├── docker-compose.yml
    │   └── readme.md
    └── twingate
        └── docker-compose.yml

In this example, twingate will be installed:

.
├── README.md
├── install.sh
├── _archive
│   └── bazarr
│       ├── docker-compose.yml
│       └── readme.md
└── twingate
    ├── docker-compose.yml
    └── readme.md
