# Self Host Blocks
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*Building blocks for self-hosting with best practices.*
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
SHB's (Self Host Blocks) goal is to provide a lower entry-bar for
|
|
|
|
|
self-hosting. I intend to achieve this by providing building blocks
|
|
|
|
|
promoting best practices to self-host a wide range of services. Also,
|
|
|
|
|
the design will be extendable to allow user defined services.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As far as best practices go, I intend to provide, for all services:
|
|
|
|
|
- protection and single sign-on using [Keycloak](https://www.keycloak.org/), where possible
|
|
|
|
|
- automated backing up of data and databases with [Borgmatic](https://torsion.org/borgmatic/)
|
|
|
|
|
- encrypted external backup with [Rclone](https://rclone.org/)
|
|
|
|
|
- central logging, monitoring and dashboards with [Prometheus](prometheus.io/) and [Grafana](https://grafana.com/)
|
|
|
|
|
- home dashboard with [Dashy](https://github.com/lissy93/dashy)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Implementation is made with the disnix suite -
|
|
|
|
|
[Disnix](https://github.com/svanderburg/disnix),
|
|
|
|
|
[Dysnomia](https://github.com/svanderburg/dysnomia),
|
|
|
|
|
[NixOps](https://github.com/NixOS/nixops) - built on top of the nix
|
|
|
|
|
ecosystem.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
## Progress Status
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Currently, this repo is WIP and the first two services I intend to
|
|
|
|
|
provide are [Tiny Tiny RSS](https://tt-rss.org/) and
|
|
|
|
|
[Vaultwarden](https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden). Vaultwarden
|
|
|
|
|
was chosen as it's IMO the first stepping stone to enable
|
|
|
|
|
self-hosting. Tiny Tiny RSS was chosen because it requires quite a lot
|
|
|
|
|
of moving parts and also will allow me to test single sign-on.
