HomelabOS is an open source project that allows you to easily deploy a variety of self-hosted applications on your home server. This installation guide will walk you through the process of installing HomelabOS on POP! OS Latest.
Before installing HomelabOS, you need to install some dependencies on your system. Run the following commands on your terminal to install them:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git
sudo apt-get install python3-pip
sudo apt-get install docker.io
sudo apt-get install docker-compose
Next, download the HomelabOS repository by running the following command:
git clone https://github.com/homelabos/homelabos.git
Change to the HomelabOS directory and run the setup script to install HomelabOS:
cd homelabos
sudo ./setup.sh
The setup script will take several minutes to complete depending on your internet speed.
Once the installation is complete, you can access HomelabOS by going to http://localhost:3000.
If you want to access HomelabOS from another computer on your network, you need to modify the docker-compose.yml file by changing the IP address in the traefik.frontend.rule section. You can find the docker-compose.yml file in the homelabos directory.
- "traefik.frontend.rule=Host:<your-ip-address>,localhost,homelabos.local"
In this tutorial, we have installed HomelabOS on POP! OS Latest. Congratulations! You can now easily deploy self-hosted applications on your home server.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
