For your personal use, you don’t need an enterprise setting. It’s just a simple compose file that you run.
You can host a registry in pull through mode, so you still have all the images you use locally, but if it’s not in your registry yet, it pulls it from docker hub or whatever.
The only pain point is that a single registry can’t do both. So if you want to push your own docker images AND have a “cache” of stuff from docker hub, you need to run two registries in two different modes. And then juggle the url’s.
I have just this (which ironically won’t work now cause docker hub is down)
services:
registry:
restart: always
image: registry:2
ports:
- 5000:5000
dns:
- 9.9.9.9
- 1.1.1.1
volumes:
- ../files/auth/registry.password:/auth/registry.password
- registry-data:/var/lib/registry
environment:
REGISTRY_STORAGE_DELETE_ENABLED: true
REGISTRY_HEALTH_STORAGEDRIVER_ENABLED: false
REGISTRY_HTTP_SECRET: ${REGISTRY_HTTP_SECRET}
REGISTRY_AUTH: htpasswd
REGISTRY_AUTH_HTPASSWD_REALM: Registry Realm
REGISTRY_AUTH_HTPASSWD_PATH: /auth/registry.password
# REGISTRY_PROXY_REMOTEURL: "https://registry-1.docker.io/"
volumes:
registry-data:
I don’t even remember how and when I set it up. I think it might be this: https://github.com/distribution/distribution/releases/tag/v2.0.0
Recently somebody has created a frontend, which I bookmarked but didn’t bother to set up: https://github.com/Joxit/docker-registry-ui
You guys don’t selfhost a registry?


does it do e-invoices? Like Zugferd, x-rechnung or factur-x ?


The laptop is super overkill for just misskey.
Debian is good.
Do you want it to be accessible through a public domain? If so, how - there are many options, like cloudflare tunnels or dyndns.


This is so fucking awesome! Congrats on the build!
It’s jankey I know
if this is jankey, my 10" rack belongs in the landfill
Do you have any interesting plans to do something against the future dust buildup?


That doesn’t make any sense


You are technically correct. I assumed that it was for external access because why would you pay porkbun for something internal?
You can just selfhost a DNS with that entry like https://technitium.com/dns/ (near bottom of feature list) it has a WebUI that allows you to manage DNS-Records through it.


A wildcard record at Porkbun pointing to the private IP of my home server
Which can not be 192.168.X.X

I recently set up ghost on a regular VPS and it sends “internal” emails like 2fa and invites directly from the docker container as far as I can tell.
The sender is the server domain (and ip). (Which btw. gets flagged as spam in my case because I use that domain with tutanota…)
Only bulk/userfacing emails go through mailgun, as far as I can tell, but havent tested this yet in detail.
Maybe that helps you in debugging.

I wanted to set up a kubernetes cluster and bought 2k worth of hardware, which ended up wasting away in a box for 3 freaking years. I would occasionally get it out on a free weekend, waste 10 hours and then give up cause I had more fun things to do on a weekend. Every time I attacked the project, I had to start from scratch because of updates and me forgetting everything by then. Months passed, then years.
Eventually I abandoned the idea of kubernetes and just set it up a single node with dokploy and the next time I felt like it I added another node in swarm mode and so on.


Don’t do a large pile.
When you get to it, start with the smallest possible thingy thats easy and fun and be proud of yourself for doing that.
Don’t even think about the pile or the mere thought of it’s existence will demotivate you from ever starting.
(ask me how I know)
I manage them with dokploy.com
I update them manually after checking if the update is beneficial to me.
If not then why touch a running system?


How close are you to “fck it, im just gonna pay for unraid”?
Extremely far. Maximum distance. My self updating debian with an sftpgo container and some RAID HDDs slapped onto it has been rocksolid for years.
The answer is probably no but I wanted to ask as a sanity check: does this setup require an internet connection after the initial setup?
My family asked me to set up security cameras at my grandmas place, which has no internet and they don’t want to pay monthly.
The idea is that family will visit and check the recordings regularely to see whether the services we hired do their job and not abuse my demented grandma.
I’m thinking of:


Works fine for me.
What issues are you having?
dokploy on a plain debian server with auto updates is my goto setup for simplicity
