A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

How do you guys set internal domains?

Say i dont want to type 192.168.1.100:8096 and want a url instead, say jellyfin.servername - how would I go about that? I don't want it exposed online via reverse proxy. I don't need certs. No port forwarding on the router.

How do I type 'jellyfin.servername' into a browser and being up the jellyfin dashboard?

It's the port that's tripping me. How do I point jellyfin to that domain? It's on docker on port 8096 - the hostname isn't the problem, it's the container.

Ah okay. You need some sort of reverse proxy.
I really like caddy. Using it with caddy-docker-proxy in docker-compose makes it quite nifty:

`
version: '3.7'
services:
whoami:
image: containous/whoami
networks:
- caddy
labels:
caddy: http://whoami.mylab.home
caddy.reverse_proxy: "{{upstreams 80}}"

networks:
caddy:
external: true
`

Just make sure to explicitly use 'http' instead of 'https'. That way it won't try to create certificates.
