I have messed around with NUT to trigger a graceful shutdown of my home server running Ubuntu Server. I have struggled with setting NUT up on bare metal, but would like a gui anyway. I saw PVE-UPS which looks good, but I think but I think it is meant for Proxmox. Any alternatives, or a spin of PVE-UPS for docker compose anybody know about?

Note to self: Get around to wiring my UPS onto my management network for monitoring and graceful shutdown of non-essential stuff.

    It's also a good idea to gracefully shutdown anything essential that isn't using a read-only rootfs. I've got my NAS configured to shut down after 5 minutes, but my firewall and frigate server keep running until the battery is almost dead, then safely shut down if the power still hasn't come back yet.
