This repo was created to help me reset my home server to a usable state if it ever failed but as there's lots that I've learned in this process, it makes sense to be public in case anyone else comes across any similar issues and needs some examples.
Traefik is a reverse proxy, which means any traffic that comes into the server will go to Traefik which will then redirect (route) it to where it needs to be. Navigate to the Traefik directory and use the readme there.
Additional containers have been placed in the containers folder to be used at will. All that's required is to create a directory somewhere, copy the docker-compose.yml and .env files there, adjust the .env to suit and run 'docker compose up -d'. Traefik will automatically* detect the new container and route the relevant traffic to it.
*This is assuming they're on the same docker network and the docker-compose.yml has been set up correctly
This contains a script which updates the IP on your domain if you don't have a static IP. Follow comments in godaddy.txt for permissions and crontab setup.
As always, the internet is wealth of knowledge, but it's hard to navigate through it all so I'll list some handy sources that have helped me set all this up.
TechnoTim has some great videos on homelab setups and is very easy to listen to.
GPT-4 is just out and it's incredible! You can just give it a failing yaml file and it fixes it for you, explaining where you went wrong!
