Selfhosting Sunday! What's up? (lemmy.nocturnal.garden)

It's been a while! Let us know what you're currently working on, what exploded, what cool stuff you found, or just brag that everything is running fine unattended.

I haven't been doing a lot, renovate auto upgrades for patches and sometimes minor updates work great so far. I got involved in my union to spin up a mastodon server soon, so there's a new project, but I already run mastodon so it shouldn't be much of a deal, I just need to get comfortable with the infrastructure. I also set up ntfy but only sent some test notifications and didn't configure any app yet - planned for Element Chat.

[Meta] I'm not sure how to apply the new tags. In the recent versions of this thread, people sometimes posted about their ollama setup or the like, but I'm not mentioning AI in the post body (except this meta thingy) and it shouldn't be much of the discussion, but it's an open post. Maybe curbstickle can chime in to let me know if I should apply one of them.

Care to share any more details? Looks very aesthetically pleasing. I think I should make one themed around my cat.

It's a PHP container On the front end I'm using Bootstrap and theming it with Catppuccin. The data for the home energy charts are populated from the Home Assistant API. They're drawn with chart.js. The server stats are pulled from PHP shell_exec commands, and drawn with Bootstrap progress bars. The temperature card also takes data from the Home Assistant API, which also has an endpoint for local weather data. This doesn't update as often as I'd like. But it compares the outdoor temperature with the reported temperature of my thermostat, and then the messages below that are determined by a comparison of those values. I'm also using HTMX to load each card, and each tab of the energy card separately so that I don't have no wait on all requests for the dashboard to load. Not that it's slow - the home assistant API is surprisingly efficient at loading a great deal of logs. When you click my dogs face, she says WOOF WOOF WOOF in a modal to offer me a search with searxng.
