# ubuntu-post-install Modular post-install system for Ubuntu servers. One repo, one entry point, install exactly what you need — interactively or by name. ## Quick start on a fresh box ```bash curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/outis1one/ubuntu-post-install/main/bootstrap.sh | sudo bash ``` That installs git (if missing), clones the repo to `~/ubuntu-post-install`, and drops you into the interactive wizard. If you already have git: ```bash git clone https://github.com/outis1one/ubuntu-post-install.git cd ubuntu-post-install sudo ./setup.sh ``` ## Usage ```bash sudo ./setup.sh # interactive wizard sudo ./setup.sh caddy immich # install specific services sudo ./setup.sh configure # set site defaults (timezone, domain, Caddy network) ./setup.sh --list # list all services grouped by category sudo ./setup.sh --dry-run immich # preview without making changes sudo ./setup.sh --unattended base # non-interactive, use defaults ``` ## What the wizard does **First run:** 1. Installs essential CLI packages (`git`, `curl`, `htop`, `ncdu`, `jq`, `glow`, …) 2. Installs Docker CE and the Compose plugin automatically if not already present 3. Offers to set **site defaults** — timezone, base domain, Caddy Docker network — so every service picks them up automatically instead of asking each time 4. Offers to install Caddy (the reverse proxy most services use) 5. Drops into a **category menu** — pick a group, tick services, install, repeat **Re-run:** skips steps 1–2 (already done), goes straight to the menu. **Site defaults** are saved to `~/docker/.config` and pre-fill every service prompt. Update them any time with `sudo ./setup.sh configure`. ## Services | Group | Services | |-------|---------| | `base` | `base`, `glow` | | `homelab` | `caddy`, `crowdsec`, `authelia`, `homeassistant` | | `utilities` | `actualbudget`, `ddclient`, `filebrowser`, `fmd`, `magicmirror`, `mealie`, `meshcentral`, `ntfy`, `portainer`, `traccar`, `uptimekuma`, `watchtower`, `wg-easy` | | `media` | `arm`, `audiobookshelf`, `emby`, `immich`, `jellyfin`, `lyrion` | | `cameras` | `frigate`, `frigate-audio`, `frigate-notify`, `sky-cam` | | `gaming` | `js99er`, `minecraft`, `wolf`, `wolf-pair` | | `extras` | `linux-to-sync`, `silent-send`, `sync-cc` | | `backup` | `backup` | Run `./setup.sh --list` to see descriptions. ## Layout ``` setup.sh dispatcher — wizard, direct install, --list, --dry-run lib/common.sh shared helpers: logging, prompts, site config, OS detection services/ one file per service (self-registering) extras/ non-Docker assets bundled with the repo (e.g. sync_cc.py) ``` ## Managing installed services Every Docker service installs to its own `~/docker//` folder: ```bash cd ~/docker/immich docker compose up -d # start docker compose logs -f # logs docker compose pull && docker compose up -d # update docker compose down # stop ``` ## Installing from a USB thumb drive You can carry the repo on a USB stick and run setup directly from it on any fresh Ubuntu machine — no git, no internet needed for the repo itself. ### 1 — Put the repo on the USB drive (on your main machine) Format the USB as ext4 or exFAT, then clone directly onto it: ```bash # Find your USB device lsblk -o NAME,SIZE,FSTYPE,LABEL,MOUNTPOINT # Clone the repo onto the USB (adjust mount path to match yours) git clone https://github.com/outis1one/ubuntu-post-install.git \ /media/$USER/YOURUSBNAME/ubuntu-post-install ``` Or copy an existing clone: ```bash cp -r ~/ubuntu-post-install /media/$USER/YOURUSBNAME/ubuntu-post-install ``` ### 2 — Run setup on the target machine Plug the USB in. Ubuntu auto-mounts it under `/media//` or `/run/media//`. Find it: ```bash ls /media/$USER/ # Ubuntu Desktop ls /run/media/$USER/ # some distros / servers lsblk -o NAME,MOUNTPOINT # always works ``` Then run setup directly from the USB: ```bash sudo /media/$USER/YOURUSBNAME/ubuntu-post-install/setup.sh ``` Everything the wizard installs (Docker containers, service configs) still goes to `~/docker/` on the **target machine's disk** — only the setup scripts live on the USB. ### Tips - **Keep it updated:** `git pull` inside the USB copy before each use to get the latest service scripts. - **exFAT vs ext4:** exFAT works on macOS and Windows too (easier to update the repo from any machine). ext4 is Linux-only but preserves file permissions — either works fine for running bash scripts. - **Permissions:** If the scripts aren't executable after copying, fix with: ```bash chmod +x /media/$USER/YOURUSBNAME/ubuntu-post-install/setup.sh chmod +x /media/$USER/YOURUSBNAME/ubuntu-post-install/services/*.sh ``` ## Compatibility Tested on **Ubuntu 24.04 LTS** and **26.04 LTS**. Works on any Ubuntu LTS ≥ 22.04; non-LTS releases also work. The wizard shows the detected OS in the header and warns on unknown versions.
