dest/current/ stays a plain mirror; deleted/overwritten files are moved to
dest/versions/YYYY-MM-DD/ so accidental deletions are recoverable while
intentional --delete still propagates. Unchanged files in version folders
are hardlinked via --link-dest to avoid extra disk cost. Supports local and
remote (SSH) source/destination paths, saved jobs, and a cron hint.

- Swaps image from filebrowser/filebrowser to gtstef/filebrowser:stable
- Uses ./data:/home/filebrowser/data volume layout (Quantum convention)
- Generates data/config.yaml instead of settings.json + database.db
- Mounts primary path as /files with defaultEnabled: true
- Deploys fbq-add-source.sh for adding extra directories post-install
- Updates README with Quantum-specific instructions
docs: save standalone bootstrap as docs/standalone-template.sh
Preserves the full standalone pattern from filebrowser.sh as the
reference template for adding standalone support to other services.

Previously only edited config.yaml. Now:
- Shows existing volume mounts with host→container paths
- Detects when a host path isn't mounted yet and adds it to compose
- Remove flow optionally removes the volume mount from compose too
- Show displays both compose mounts and config sources side by side
- Uses down/up (not just restart) when compose changes
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
Previously only detected the first volume mount, so sources on a
second mount (e.g. /files2) were not reachable. Now lists all mounts
from docker-compose.yml and lets the user pick by number or type a
full container path directly.
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
Allows editing share path, mount point, and options for an existing
fstab entry. CIFS entries also offer credential update (backs up the
old credentials file before overwriting). Backs up fstab before any
change and offers immediate remount to apply.
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
Interactive script to mount network drives and persist them in /etc/fstab:
- SMB/CIFS: prompts for share path, mount point, credentials (saved to
/etc/samba/credentials.<name> at 600/root), SMB version
- NFS: prompts for export path, mount point, NFS version
- Tests the mount before writing fstab
- Backs up /etc/fstab before any edit
- Remove flow: unmounts, removes fstab entry, optionally removes creds file
- Shows currently mounted network shares and fstab entries
- Uses nofail + _netdev so a missing share doesn't block boot
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
(( n++ )) returns exit code 1 when the pre-increment value is 0,
which kills the script under set -euo pipefail. Replace with
n=$(( n + 1 )) which always returns 0.
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
yq stops mid-array when it encounters inline comments like
'# grant per-user only'. Strip comments via sed before piping
to yq in list_sources, source_exists, and before in-place edits.
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
Sources added manually without a name or config block showed "null"
for name and readOnly. Use yq // operator to fall back to sensible
defaults: "(unnamed)" for missing name, false for missing booleans.
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
Assumes the parent data directory is already broadly mounted in
docker-compose.yml so subdirectories are already inside the container.
Script now only edits config.yaml and restarts the container — no
docker-compose surgery needed per new source.
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
Interactive script that keeps docker-compose.yml and config.yaml in sync
when adding or removing file sources in a FileBrowser Quantum installation.
- Prompts for host path, source name, defaultEnabled, readOnly
- Validates against duplicate volume mounts and source entries
- Backs up both files before editing
- Uses yq v4 for safe YAML editing (no fragile sed/awk on YAML)
- Offers container restart after changes
- Works standalone; no post-install framework dependency
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
Root cause: user scopes inside /data/... (the main data bind-mount) mean
any extra mount would nest inside another bind-mount — Docker does not
reliably layer these, so directories appeared in `ls` but were empty
and FileBrowser returned 404.
Fix: detect nested scopes and migrate them to the named volume (fb_users)
before adding any extra mounts.
Migration flow:
- Detects scope is inside /data bind-mount
- Suggests a new scope path in the named volume (e.g. /alice)
- Creates the scope directory via docker exec (no host-side clutter)
- Offers to mount the user's personal files dir as my-files/
- Updates the user's scope in FileBrowser via API PUT /api/users/:id
- Then adds requested extra dirs as non-nested bind-mounts
Also added: let user choose the display name for each added folder
(e.g. mount audiobookshelf but show it as "audiobooks").
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
When a user's FileBrowser directory lives inside an existing bind-mount
(e.g. /srv/data/users/alice), Docker needs an empty directory at the
host-side equivalent path before it can overlay an inner bind-mount on
top of the outer one. Without it the inner mount silently fails and
the extra folder never appears.
Now creates the mount-point directory on the host automatically before
adding the compose entry, with a visible note so the user knows a dir
was created.
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
Symlinks don't work for giving scoped FileBrowser users access to extra
folders — FileBrowser's afero.BasePathFs blocks symlinks that resolve
outside the user's scope directory.
Switch to bind-mount approach: additional_directories.sh edits
docker-compose.yml to add real bind-mount entries for each extra folder,
so FileBrowser sees them as actual subdirectories within the user's root.
No symlinks, no scope-boundary issues.
Features:
- Reads FB_PATH from .env to list available source folders on the host
- Parses docker-compose.yml to show what's already configured per user
- Adds/removes volume entries with a timestamped backup before each edit
- Prompts to restart the container after changes
- Normalises scope paths from the API (handles missing leading slash)
manage_users.sh removed — user CRUD is handled by the FileBrowser web UI.
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
Removed all user CRUD (add, delete, rename, passwd, scope change).
The FileBrowser web UI handles those. Script is now focused solely
on adding/removing extra folder shortcuts for users who have a
restricted root directory. Simpler menu, ~half the code.
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
Services on caddy_net talk container-to-container using the internal
port. The host-mapped port (left side of ports:) is only for direct
access from another machine. Added this as a comment block in the
generated Caddyfile starter and in the README.
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
- Remove silent mkdir -p when adding extra directories. If the user's
directory doesn't exist in the container, ask before creating it.
This avoids creating folders the admin didn't intend.
- Rename all user-facing "scope" text to "directory" throughout:
prompts, banners, menu labels, column headers, help text, error
messages. The FileBrowser API field is still called "scope"
internally, and the CLI subcommand name stays "scope" for compat.
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
docker-compose now uses two separate mounts:
fb_users named volume → /srv (user home dirs + shortcuts, Docker only)
FB_PATH bind mount → /srv/data (actual files, unchanged on host)
User dirs and their shortcuts live entirely in the Docker named volume —
they persist across reboots but never appear on the host filesystem.
Full-access scope is /data; per-user scopes are /alice etc.
manage_users.sh:
- Detect layout: get_data_root() returns /srv/data (new) or /srv (legacy)
so the script works with both old and new installs automatically
- "Linked directories" renamed to "additional directories" throughout
(menu labels, prompts, error messages, usage text)
- prompt_add_links → prompt_add_dirs, menu_links → menu_add_dirs
- Available-folder listing and symlink targets use get_data_root()
- Scope examples updated to show /data for full access (new layout)
- Don't offer additional directories when scope is /data (full access)
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
Removed dateFormat, hideDotfiles, singleClick, and sorting from the
POST /api/users payload — FileBrowser rejects them as invalid data
types on some versions. Only stable fields are now sent.
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
- User creation was silently failing: api_post used curl -sf (fail on
HTTP error) with output piped to /dev/null, so set -Eeuo pipefail
would exit the script with no message. Now captures HTTP status code
and response body, printing the server's error message on failure.
- Symlink folder listing (? prompt) only searched -type d, missing
symlinked directories in /srv. Changed to -type d -o -type l so
all browsable entries appear. Also switched xargs echo to tr for
a cleaner one-line display.
- mkdir -p and ln -s in docker exec were not checked for errors;
failures would silently kill the script under set -e. Both now
show a useful error message and continue/return instead of crashing.
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
Replace the "configure manually" stub with a real implementation that
matches common.sh's configure_caddy_for_service behaviour:
- Prompts to configure (skippable)
- Asks for domain with example hint
- Backs up Caddyfile before writing
- Checks for duplicate domain entry, offers overwrite
- Appends site block with reverse_proxy, security headers, JSON log
- fmt + reload via docker exec caddy caddy fmt/reload
Used when filebrowser.sh is run standalone without the repo present.
When the repo is present (common.sh sourced), the real function is used.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01UZus2Q9gNTfUdqSMrhuX29
DOCKER_DIR was computed before ACTUAL_HOME, so $HOME resolved to
/root (the root user's home) instead of the invoking user's home.
Files were created under /root/docker/ rather than ~/docker/.
Fix: compute ACTUAL_USER and ACTUAL_HOME first, then DOCKER_DIR.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01UZus2Q9gNTfUdqSMrhuX29
Add standalone bootstrap block at the top (BASH_SOURCE[0] == $0 guard):
- If lib/common.sh is present (repo cloned), source it — gets real helpers
and picks up any existing ~/docker/.config site settings automatically
- If not (one-off copy), inline minimal stubs: logging, require_docker
(checks Docker is installed, gives install hint if not), prompt_text/yn
(match common.sh eval pattern so install_filebrowser locals work),
configure_caddy_for_service (no-op with manual hint), write_readme
- Sets DOCKER_DIR, ACTUAL_USER, SITE_TZ etc. with sensible defaults
- register_service becomes a no-op (no wizard menu to register into)
- Execution deferred via _RUN_STANDALONE flag to after function definition
Still works identically when sourced by setup.sh — the bootstrap block
is skipped entirely in that path.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01UZus2Q9gNTfUdqSMrhuX29
Three fixes in ensure_token:
- Use jq to build the login JSON so special chars in passwords
(quotes, backslashes, etc.) don't break the raw string interpolation
- Add || true to the curl call so set -e doesn't silently exit on
connection refused before the response check runs
- Show FileBrowser's actual response on failure so the user can see
whether it's wrong credentials vs unreachable vs something else
https://claude.ai/code/session_01UZus2Q9gNTfUdqSMrhuX29
List top-level directories from /srv so the user knows what to type
without having to guess. Subdirs (e.g. documents/shared) still work.
Skip link prompt when scope is / (user already has full access).
https://claude.ai/code/session_01UZus2Q9gNTfUdqSMrhuX29
Users think in FileBrowser folder names, not container paths.
- prompt_add_links: prompt now "Folder to add [done]:" with examples
like "music photos documents/shared" — /srv added internally
- list_links: strip /srv prefix from displayed target paths
- menu_links: rename options to "Add folders" / "Remove a folder"
- scope prompts: remove the leading "/" hint (confusing); normalise
internally instead
- ok message shows "(from path/subdir)" only when link name differs
https://claude.ai/code/session_01UZus2Q9gNTfUdqSMrhuX29
- prompt_add_links: shared helper loops asking for /srv paths until
blank Enter, creates symlinks via docker exec, skips bad paths
- cmd_add: offers linked-dir prompt right after user creation
- cmd_scope: offers linked-dir prompt after a scope change
- menu_links: tighter submenu (list + add loop + remove) replacing
the old menu_symlinks; called from Modify option 5
- Scope prompts now show the leading / so the user only types the rest
- Note on delete: symlinks on disk survive user deletion (by design)
https://claude.ai/code/session_01UZus2Q9gNTfUdqSMrhuX29
New option 5 in the Modify submenu: "Manage linked directories"
- Lists existing symlinks inside the user's scope dir (via docker exec)
- Add: prompts for source path (/srv/...) and a display name, creates
the symlink inside /srv<scope>/<name> → /srv<source> in the container
- Remove: lists links, prompts for name, refuses to delete non-symlinks
- Warns if source path doesn't exist yet; offers to create anyway
- Auto-detects container name from docker-compose.yml next to the script
- Checks that the container is running before any docker exec calls
This is the recommended workaround for FileBrowser's single-scope
limitation: symlinks inside the scope dir appear as normal folders.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01UZus2Q9gNTfUdqSMrhuX29
- Interactive menu when run with no args (login once, reuse token)
- Modify submenu: change username, password, scope, or toggle admin
- Fix: prompt_password now uses local -n nameref (bash 4.3+) so the
caller's local variable is actually set; printf -v was writing to
global scope and being shadowed by the caller's local declaration
- One-shot commands unchanged: list/add/delete/passwd/scope/rename/info
- FileBrowser only supports one scope per user — documented clearly
https://claude.ai/code/session_01UZus2Q9gNTfUdqSMrhuX29
Undo the host.docker.internal approach from the previous commit — proper
Docker networking routes Caddy to services by container name on the shared
caddy_net, not via the host gateway.
- lib/common.sh: configure_caddy_for_service now accepts either a plain
port number (localhost:PORT fallback) or container:port (preferred).
The Caddyfile entry uses the container name for direct Docker DNS routing.
- services/caddy.sh: remove extra_hosts hack; update Caddyfile template
comments to show container_name:port format
- All service files: update configure_caddy_for_service calls to pass
container_name:internal_port (e.g. "filebrowser:80", "mealie:9000").
Services using network_mode:host keep plain port numbers.
- tools/manage_users.sh: new FileBrowser user-management script (deployed
to ~/docker/filebrowser/ during installation). Manages users via the
FileBrowser REST API: list, add, delete, passwd, scope, info commands.
Documents username format (letters/numbers/hyphens/underscores),
password rules (min 8 chars, letter + number required), and scope path
convention relative to /srv (= FB_PATH on the host).
https://claude.ai/code/session_01UZus2Q9gNTfUdqSMrhuX29
- lib/common.sh: fix broken reverse_proxy target — localhost inside Caddy's
container is the container's own loopback, not the host; change to
host.docker.internal so proxied ports are actually reachable
- services/caddy.sh: add extra_hosts host.docker.internal:host-gateway so
the above resolves correctly; create caddy_net bridge network in Caddy's
own compose so other services can reference it as external; update all
Caddyfile template comments and README examples to match
- services/filebrowser.sh: update image tag from deprecated :s6 to :latest;
remove non-functional PUID/PGID env vars (filebrowser/filebrowser does not
honour them); add configure_caddy_for_service call; add caddy_net
- services/ntfy.sh: add configure_caddy_for_service call; add caddy_net
- services/portainer.sh: add configure_caddy_for_service call; add caddy_net
- services/frigate-notify.sh, watchtower.sh: add caddy_net for
container-to-container comms (frigate, ntfy) without a Caddy call
- All remaining web-facing Docker services: add caddy_net network block to
docker-compose and CADDY_NET to .env where applicable; services using
network_mode: host (wolf-pair, lyrion) have the top-level block only
https://claude.ai/code/session_01UZus2Q9gNTfUdqSMrhuX29
- extras/test_backup_kopia.sh: stop → restore → compare → roll back test for Kopia
- extras/test_backup_borg.sh: stop → extract → compare → roll back test for Borg
- backup workers: add START_TS/BACKUP_COUNT/DURATION_STR to completion log and ntfy
- backup workers: pre-flight disk check warns and records failure if < 512 MB free
- services/backup.sh: install test_backup_kopia.sh + optional weekly test timer
- services/borg-backup.sh: install test_backup_borg.sh + optional weekly test timer
- ntfy notifications include service count, duration, and per-failure detail lines
extras/test_backup.sh — new unified test script (Kopia + Borg):
• Stops container, moves live data aside, restores latest backup,
compares restored vs live with diff -rq (content, not timestamps),
moves live data back and restarts container
• PASS = restore succeeded; diff output is informational (files changed
since last backup are normal)
• FAIL = restore command failed or target empty after restore
• --list flag, CLI service arg, interactive picker
• Handles both full-service dirs and sub-path sources (gaming-backup)
• Cleanup trap always restores live data even on error
• Sends ntfy notification on pass and fail
extras/backup_kopia.sh, backup_borg.sh, backup_gaming.sh:
• ntfy_send() + categorize_error() helpers added
• Each snapshot/archive failure captures stderr and categorizes:
disk full, remote unreachable, repository not found, wrong passphrase,
permission denied, unknown error
• Single ntfy notification at end: success (low priority) or failure
(urgent) with per-service failure reasons listed
• backup_borg.sh: changed 2>&1 | pipe to 2>"$_ERR" | so stdout logs
cleanly and stderr is captured for error categorization
services/backup.sh, borg-backup.sh, gaming-backup.sh:
• New ntfy prompt section in installer (URL + optional token)
• NTFY_URL / NTFY_TOKEN written to backup.conf
• test_backup.sh copied from extras/ into service dir
• Summary updated to show test_backup.sh commands and ntfy URL
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
Replace embedded heredocs in the three backup service installers with
cp from versioned source files in extras/:
extras/backup_kopia.sh — Kopia worker (was inline in services/backup.sh)
extras/backup_borg.sh — Borg worker (was inline in services/borg-backup.sh)
extras/backup_gaming.sh — gaming saves worker (was inline in services/gaming-backup.sh)
extras/restore_kopia.sh — unified Kopia restore (multi-dest + single-dest)
extras/restore_borg.sh — unified Borg restore with destination picker
Each installer now does `cp extras/<script>.sh $DIR/<script>.sh` instead of
writing the script inline. Workers and restore scripts are now readable in the
repo rather than buried in heredocs.
Restore scripts are installed flat into the service directory root:
~/docker/backup/backup_kopia.sh ~/docker/backup/restore_kopia.sh
~/docker/borg-backup/backup_borg.sh ~/docker/borg-backup/restore_borg.sh
~/docker/gaming-backup/backup_gaming.sh ~/docker/gaming-backup/restore_kopia.sh
The new restore scripts handle destination selection internally, so a single
script replaces the old per-destination restore/<dest>/ layout.
Also fixes `local` used outside a function in restore_kopia.sh and
restore_borg.sh (destination picker loop), and removes the now-superseded
extras/restore_kopia_backup.sh and extras/restore_borg_backup.sh.
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
New service: borg-backup (backup group)
- Installs borgbackup from apt
- Same coverage as Kopia backup: full ~/docker/<service>/ snapshots
- Minecraft: flush world (save-all), archive, no downtime
- All others: stop → archive → restart
- Multi-destination support with per-service routing
- SSH remote repos supported natively (user@host:/path)
- Per-service pruning: keep-daily/weekly/monthly
- repo compact after each run
- Systemd timer (with cron fallback)
- repokey-blake2 encryption; key export reminder in summary
- worker.sh: run / list / info subcommands
New restore helper: extras/restore_borg_backup.sh
- Installed to ~/docker/borg-backup/restore/<dest>/
- Interactive: lists services → pick archive → inspect (/tmp) or restore in-place
- In-place restore: stops container, moves current data aside, extracts, restarts
- Old data kept as .pre-restore-DATE with rollback instructions printed
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
Place datapacks_<ver>.zip or crafting_tweaks_<ver>.zip in extras/datapacks/
before running the Minecraft installer and they will be detected automatically.
- Pattern match: *datapack* → unzip into datapacks-download/; *craft* → copy as-is
- Version extracted from filename; compared against selected MC version at picker step
- Early banner notice when ZIPs are absent (where to put them and naming convention)
- If ZIPs present: show found files + version check, offer "Use pre-packaged VT?" (default y)
- Accepting skips the individual datapack picker entirely
- Manual fallback instructions updated to hint at extras/datapacks/ for next time
- Removed broken VT share# links from manual instructions
- Added extras/datapacks/README.md (naming convention + download sources)
- Added .gitignore: extras/datapacks/*.zip never committed
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
- backup: renamed from disaster-backup; full ~/docker/<service>/ snapshots,
Minecraft flushed not stopped, everything else stop/snap/start for DB
consistency; backup.conf / restore/ layout; post-install-backup timer
- gaming-backup: renamed from backup; frequent game-save snapshots (Minecraft
world data, emulator saves, Steam, Wolf state) with no service downtime;
defaults to hourly schedule; separate gaming-kopia repo + gaming-backup timer
- Deleted services/disaster-backup.sh
- README: updated backup row to reflect new names
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
Minecraft instances are flushed to disk (save-all) and snapshotted while
the server keeps running — no player disruption. All other services stop
briefly for filesystem-consistent database snapshots, then restart.
Also update file header, install banner, schedule description, and README.
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
- minecraft: prompt for world seed on new installs (skipped if world already exists); SEED env var wired into docker-compose.yml
- disaster-backup: new service that stops each Docker service, snapshots the full ~/docker/<service>/ directory (config + data + databases), then restarts it — multi-destination support so different services can go to different drives/repos; one restore_kopia_backup.sh per destination
- README: update backup row to list both backup and disaster-backup
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
- extras/restore_kopia_backup.sh: interactive restore tool — lists all
snapshot sources, pick source + snapshot, choose inspect (restore to
/tmp) or restore-in-place (moves current data aside as .pre-restore-DATE
for easy rollback, auto-stops/starts the associated Docker service)
- services/backup.sh: copy restore script to ~/docker/backup/ during
install; update summary to show restore command
- CLAUDE.md: add note to update README services table when adding a
service; add Authelia section documenting which services have built-in
auth, the import-authelia Caddy pattern for no-auth services, and
remember_me_duration config for kiosk/persistent sessions
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
Documents all packages installed by the base service, and adds a
Backup section covering Kopia, Borg, plain rsync, rsync --link-dest
(versioned snapshots with original folder structure), and rsnapshot —
with guidance on when to use each.
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
Keep only the two base install scripts (24.04, 26.04), the modular
system (setup.sh, lib/, services/, extras/, bootstrap.sh), and
LICENSE/README/VERSION. Everything else was superseded.
https://claude.ai/code/session_017WJtGcE5jjerAQCUBWUE3H
- SCP example used $(whoami) which evaluates to root; use $ACTUAL_USER instead
- VT_VERSION stripped to major.minor (e.g. 1.21) so the picker version
prompt is correct; previous awk printed the full patch string (1.21.4)
https://claude.ai/code/session_017WJtGcE5jjerAQCUBWUE3H

the drive name, then sudo bash /media/$(whoami)/DRIVENAME/...bootstrap.sh.
https://claude.ai/code/session_017WJtGcE5jjerAQCUBWUE3H
bootstrap.sh: add self-elevation — if not root, re-exec under sudo.
Double-clicking the script in GNOME ("Run in Terminal") now prompts for
the sudo password automatically, no extra commands needed.
README: rewrite USB section around the real workflow:
- clone with "Open in Terminal" from the file manager sidebar
- Option A: right-click folder → Open in Terminal → sudo ./setup.sh
- Option B: double-click bootstrap.sh → "Run in Terminal?" → sudo prompt
- note on nautilus-extension-gnome-terminal and exFAT vs ext4
https://claude.ai/code/session_017WJtGcE5jjerAQCUBWUE3H
README: rewrite USB section with three steps:
1. Auto-detect USB mount point and clone repo onto it
2. Install nautilus-extension-gnome-terminal for right-click "Open in Terminal"
3. Double-click "Run Setup.desktop" to launch wizard with sudo (no terminal needed)
Run Setup.desktop: launcher file included in the repo so it's present on the
USB automatically. Uses %k to find its own location, cds to that directory,
and runs sudo ./setup.sh in a terminal window.
https://claude.ai/code/session_017WJtGcE5jjerAQCUBWUE3H
The USB section was documenting the wrong thing. Replace with instructions
for carrying the repo on a USB stick and running setup.sh directly from it
on any fresh Ubuntu machine — no internet required for the repo.
Covers: cloning/copying to USB, finding the mount point on the target
machine, running setup from USB, exFAT vs ext4 trade-offs, fixing
permissions after copy.
https://claude.ai/code/session_017WJtGcE5jjerAQCUBWUE3H
- lib/common.sh: require_docker now installs Docker CE + Compose plugin
via get.docker.com instead of erroring out if Docker is missing.
Also adds the calling user to the docker group automatically.
- README.md: fix 'tells you how to install Docker' → 'installs Docker
automatically'; add full USB drive usage section (mount, fstab,
DOCKER_DIR config, moving existing data, tips).
- services/minecraft.sh: replace single-source whitelist import with the
multi-source UI from the updated setup-minecraft.sh — collects players
from the current instance, saved backup files, and other servers' backups;
assigns letters to each source so you can import by letter (all from that
source) or by number (specific player).
https://claude.ai/code/session_017WJtGcE5jjerAQCUBWUE3H
Added exec sudo bash self-elevation so bootstrap.sh works correctly when
double-clicked ("Run in Terminal") without the user needing to prefix sudo.
If already root, the check is a no-op.
Removed bootstrap.desktop — too fragile across desktop environments.
README now covers both "Open in Terminal" and double-click paths.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
The previous USB instructions assumed git was available. Added step-by-step
for the no-git path: GitHub ZIP download → unzip → copy to USB → run
bootstrap.sh. Includes the Ubuntu auto-mount path tip for finding the
drive name. Folder name note (ubuntu-post-install-main from ZIP) added.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Three usage modes now documented and implemented:
1. Public repo: curl | sudo bash (unchanged)
2. Private repo, USB: copy whole repo to thumb drive, run bootstrap.sh
from it — detects setup.sh alongside itself, copies to ~/ubuntu-post-install,
execs setup.sh. No git auth, no internet needed for the scripts.
3. Private repo, PAT: bootstrap.sh --pat ghp_xxx — PAT stripped from
stored remote URL after clone so it is not saved in plain text.
USB mode is the recommended approach for private repos: clone once,
put on a drive, run on every new machine.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
bootstrap.sh: one curl | sudo bash to get and run on a fresh box —
installs git if missing, clones/updates the repo, execs setup.sh.
README.md: complete rewrite. The old README described the monolithic
script (--restore, --migrate flags, Samba, NetBird, etc.) which no
longer exists. New README covers quick start, usage modes, service
table, layout, and managing installed services.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Both silent-send and immich already use NodeSource (not Ubuntu repos).
Node 24 is the current active LTS; 22 moves to maintenance in 2025.
Minimum version checks (>=18 and >=20) are unchanged — both services
accept any sufficiently recent Node.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Probe for --break-system-packages support once (pip --help, cached in
_PIP_HAS_BSP) rather than comparing Ubuntu version numbers. Works on any
pip >= 22.3 regardless of distro; older pip (Ubuntu 22.04, pip 22.0)
falls back to --user only, which is correct there since PEP 668 isn't
enforced on 22.04 anyway.
The flag name is scary but harmless with --user: installs go to ~/.local/
which apt never manages regardless.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
pip3 install --user alone does not reliably bypass PEP 668 in all 24.04
environments. --break-system-packages (pip 22.3+) is the correct override.
Flag is only added when ubuntu_version_ge "24.04" so it does not run on
Ubuntu 22.04 where pip 22.0 ships and the flag is not yet supported.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
lib/common.sh:
- detect_os(): reads /etc/os-release into OS_DISTRO, OS_VERSION,
OS_CODENAME globals (exported, auto-called on source)
- ubuntu_version_ge(): numeric version comparison helper
- pip_user_install(): central wrapper for pip3 install --user so any
future version-specific flags are in one place
setup.sh:
- Both header banners now show detected OS line (e.g., "Ubuntu 24.04 (noble)")
- First-run path warns if not Ubuntu or < 24.04
services/sky-cam.sh, services/sync-cc.sh:
- Replace inline pip3 invocations with pip_user_install helper
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
On second run, is_installed base (command -v ncdu) detects that base
packages are already present and jumps straight to the service menu,
skipping the required-setup banner, confirm prompt, and apt-get install.
The first-run path is unchanged; `sudo ./setup.sh base` forces reinstall.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Introduces a one-time configuration wizard (sudo ./setup.sh configure)
that stores SITE_TZ, SITE_DOMAIN, and SITE_CADDY_NET in ~/docker/.config.
Every service now uses these as prompt defaults so the user types common
values once instead of re-answering the same questions for each service.
- lib/common.sh: load_site_config / save_site_config; auto-loads on source;
backward-compat BASE_DOMAIN alias kept for old .config files
- setup.sh: run_site_configure wizard; first-run offer after base install;
`sudo ./setup.sh configure` command to update defaults at any time
- 14 services: TZ_VAL now honours SITE_TZ, falling back to /etc/timezone
- 3 inline-heredoc services (filebrowser, homeassistant, ntfy): same fix
- authelia: SITE_TZ/SITE_DOMAIN as prompt defaults; SITE_CADDY_NET replaces
hardcoded caddy_net throughout (env, compose patch, network creation)
- minecraft, frigate-audio: simplify BASE_DOMAIN read to use SITE_DOMAIN
- sky-cam: SITE_TZ as default for timezone prompt
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Three bugs fixed:
1. git clone ran as root — SSH key lookup failed because user's keys are in
~user/.ssh/, not /root/.ssh/. Both SSH and PAT clones now run via
sudo -u ACTUAL_USER so git uses the right key and the clone is owned
correctly without a separate chown step.
2. 2>/dev/null on git clone swallowed all error output — errors are now
shown so authentication failures are diagnosable.
3. No re-run handling — trying to clone into an existing dir silently
failed. Now detects .git, offers git pull instead.
Also: checks for SSH key existence before attempting SSH clone, and prints
actionable guidance (ssh-keygen, ssh-add, ssh -T git@github.com) on failure.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
sky-cam (cameras/non-docker):
Clones outis1one/sky-cam via bootstrap.sh to ~/sky-cam. Prompts for
latitude, longitude, timezone, camera names, BASE_DIR, and optional
Mattermost webhook. Patches sky-cam.conf and installs systemd user
timers via the repo's install.sh. Produces sunrise clips, Four Seasons
timelapse, moon-track, and monthly moon-phase images.
frigate-audio (cameras/docker):
Full stack from outis1one/frigate_w_audio: Frigate 0.17 NVR +
Mosquitto MQTT broker + frigate-notify → ntfy push alerts. Audio-ready
config template with face recognition and LPR pre-configured. Prompts
for camera credentials, media storage path (supports drive detection),
MQTT password (auto-generated), and ntfy server. Bootstraps the
Mosquitto passwd file. Detector choice: CPU / USB Coral / PCIe Coral.
Hardcoded media path from upstream replaced with a configurable prompt.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Adds sync_cc as an extras service module:
- extras/sync_cc.py: the Python tool (3196 lines) — 8 modes: SYNC,
GENERATE, BATCH, RENAME (TMDB), EXTRACT, REMUX, EMBED, BURNSUBS
- services/sync-cc.sh: installs system deps (python3, ffmpeg, mkvtoolnix,
ccextractor), pip installs openai-whisper + ffsubsync, copies the script
to ~/sync-cc/, prompts for TMDB API key → .env, creates /usr/local/bin/sync-cc
wrapper so users run it from any directory containing video/SRT files
Heavy optional deps (easyocr, pgsreader) are installed on first use by the
script itself. GPU (CUDA/MPS) is used automatically if detected.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Three improvements ported from the standalone setupminecraft.sh:
- Whitelist: detect existing whitelist.json on re-run, offer to import
players by number (0=all, comma list, Enter=skip), no UUID re-lookup
for already-resolved entries; new gamertags still looked up via Mojang API
- Vanilla Tweaks: add vanillatweaks.net pre-configured share links at the
top of the download instructions section (datapacks + crafting tweaks)
- Vanilla Tweaks: pause with "Press Enter when datapacks are in
datapacks-download/" so user can SCP the ZIP before the build starts
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Introduces the versioned-snapshot naming convention: each release creates
a new setup_v<X.Y.Z>.sh file alongside the live setup.sh; old snapshots
are never removed. Resets VERSION from 1.0.0 to 0.9.5.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Every service from ubuntu-post-install-24.04-crowdsec.sh is now a module.
35 services across 8 categories; setup.sh is the primary install path.
- services/linux-to-sync.sh (extras): clone private repo via SSH or PAT
- setup.sh: is_installed case for linux-to-sync (~/.git marker)
- MODULAR.md: migration table updated to show full inventory
- VERSION: 0.9.11 → 1.0.0 (parity achieved)
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Migrate the full media batch from the monolith:
- jellyfin: auto-VAAPI on /dev/dri/renderD128 + render GID; DLNA/discovery UDP ports
- emby: UID/GID baked at install; HW transcoding block commented for manual opt-in
- audiobookshelf: separate audiobooks + podcasts paths; port 13378
- arm: optical drive detection; privileged:true; split movies/music output; port 8080
- lyrion: network_mode:host for Chromecast/Squeezebox UDP discovery; port 9000
- immich: multi-container stack (server+ML+valkey+postgres); two library strategies
(unified with import-photos.sh helper, or external read-only); port 2283
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Adds services/silent-send.sh — installs the Silent Send browser extension
(client-side PII redaction for AI chat). Non-docker module: installs git +
Node.js >=18 (NodeSource) + npm, clones outis1one/silent-send to ~/silent-send,
runs npm install (readies web-ext for Firefox build/sign), optionally builds a
signed Firefox .xpi, and prints per-browser load/build instructions. README
written to the checkout.
Introduces a new 'extras' category for non-docker add-ons pulled from other
repos, wired into setup.sh CATEGORY_ORDER (gaming -> extras -> backup) with an
is_installed marker. MODULAR.md groups list updated.
Bumps version to 0.9.9.
Adds services/wolf-pair.sh (gaming group, port 8090). Builds a tiny
python:3.12-alpine container from server.py + Dockerfile (both baked
into the script) that reads Wolf's docker logs for the current pairing
secret and serves a PIN entry form. Runs with network_mode: host so
localhost:47989 (Wolf's /pin/ API) is reachable; docker socket mounted
read-only for log access.
Replaces the ./manage.sh pin CLI workflow: visit the URL, type the PIN.
Optional Caddy subdomain, UFW port 8090, README in ~/docker/wolf-pair/.
Bumps version to 0.9.8.
Status snapshot at v0.9.7 for continuing in a new session: module status by
category, final taxonomy, the module contract/conventions, verification steps,
and the open wolf-pair item (awaiting server.py + Dockerfile upload).
https://claude.ai/code/session_017eA2qqq9jfF2tNtpUYL8vK
- lib/common.sh: add write_readme helper. Every module now writes a README.md
into its ~/docker/<service>/ folder (self-documenting service folders).
- services/authelia.sh: SSO + 2FA portal, ported from the authelia-setup repo +
the monolith's working block (secrets + Argon2 hash generation, caddy_net,
Caddyfile forward-auth snippet + portal block, README). Guards against
clobbering an existing install.
- services/{filebrowser,ntfy,uptimekuma,portainer,watchtower}.sh: mechanical
migrations from the monolith, each with a README. Ports 8085/8090/3001/9443/—.
All pass bash -n; ./setup.sh --list shows them under homelab; dry-run run-one
exits 0 for each with real commands guarded.
https://claude.ai/code/session_017eA2qqq9jfF2tNtpUYL8vK
services/minecraft.sh — full port of the standalone setupminecraft.sh into the
modular system. Each instance is its own ~/docker/<name>/ with a standalone
compose (multi-server via port auto-bump). Preserves flavour choice, the live
Modrinth version/mod picker, Vanilla Tweaks datapacks, whitelist UUID
pre-population, LuckPerms bootstrap, Chunky pre-gen, playit.gg tunnel, generated
networking/client docs, and the client-mods web page. Fixes the original's
env-block trailing-newline YAML bug. Selkies/manage.sh/setup-backup hand-offs
removed (points at 'sudo ./setup.sh backup').
Verified: bash -n; ./setup.sh --list shows minecraft under GAMING; dry-run
exits 0 with early return; generated compose validates.
https://claude.ai/code/session_017eA2qqq9jfF2tNtpUYL8vK
Introduce the modular post-install structure chosen for reconciling 'one
source of truth' with 'run just the service I want':
- lib/common.sh: shared helpers (logging, prompts, ownership, Caddy wiring) and
a service registry. Single implementation of each helper.
- setup.sh: dispatcher — interactive menu, run-one (./setup.sh <name>), --list,
--dry-run, --unattended. Sources lib + services/*.sh (self-registering).
- services/base.sh: essential CLI packages incl. glow (Charm apt repo).
- services/homeassistant.sh: first migrated service (bridge/host networking,
trusted_proxies, Caddy integration).
- MODULAR.md: architecture, how to add a module, migration status.
- Groups: base/homelab/gaming/backup. Gaming group makes this a base for
homelab OR gaming boxes.
Also add glow as a default app to the live -crowdsec scripts' essential
packages so it's installed today regardless of entry point.
Verified: bash -n on all new files; ./setup.sh --list groups services;
dry-run run-one routes correctly.
https://claude.ai/code/session_017eA2qqq9jfF2tNtpUYL8vK
Let the user choose Home Assistant's networking mode at install time in the
-crowdsec variants:
- Bridge (default): publishes port 8123, works behind Caddy, isolated.
- Host: shares the host network for LAN device auto-discovery (Cast, HomeKit,
mDNS/Zeroconf, some Zigbee/Z-Wave/Bluetooth).
The compose file is generated conditionally; both modes verified to produce
valid YAML, and both scripts pass 'bash -n' and a --dry-run --unattended pass.
https://claude.ai/code/session_017eA2qqq9jfF2tNtpUYL8vK
Add Home Assistant (home-automation hub, port 8123) to the -crowdsec scripts
for 24.04 and 26.04, following the existing service pattern (menu entry,
detection, defaults, parse, uninstall, install block, UFW rule, Caddy template).
- Image ghcr.io/home-assistant/home-assistant:stable, config volume, privileged
+ /run/dbus for hardware integrations; documents host-networking alternative
for full mDNS/device discovery.
- Pre-seeds config/configuration.yaml with default_config + http.trusted_proxies
(only on a fresh install) so HA works behind the Caddy reverse proxy without
the usual 400 'request from reverse proxy' error.
- Integrates with configure_caddy_for_service (subdomain 'home').
Added only to the -crowdsec tier (current tip); original and -no-keycloak
scripts stay frozen as the evolution record. Both variants pass 'bash -n' and a
--dry-run --unattended pass (exit 0), including with Home Assistant forced on.
https://claude.ai/code/session_017eA2qqq9jfF2tNtpUYL8vK
