Currently my home server runs a few services that have a web UI. I currently access them by typing in the IP address and port number, but it’s now starting to get annoying to remember the ports.
What’s the best way to handle this?
I’ve thought of two solutions:
- I’m running a local DNS server, so I probably would be able to make CNAMEs from something like
adguard.server.localto the IP, and do a reverse proxy with something like Caddy - Maybe there’s some unified dashboard app that is a reverse proxy with some simple frontend where I can just navigate to
server.localand click a button to choose which specific service I want to see?
What are your opinions on this?
According point 2: I choose homepage over Heimdall. It has more direct integrations (e.g. Homeassistant, Synology, Paperless-ngx, Warchtower…) where you can display specific information directly on your dashboard. It is easily set up by a couple .yaml files. You can find lots of examples online and in the documentation.
Wow, that looks good! Thanks!
