With the recent discussions around replacing Spotify with selfhosted services and the possibilities to obtain the music itself, I’ve been finally setting up Navidrome. I had to do quite a bit of reorganization to do with my existing collection (beets helping a ton) but now it’s in a neatly organized structure and I’m enjoying it everywhere. I get most of my stuff from Bandcamp but I have a big catalog from when I’ve still had a large physical collection.
I’m also still working on my docker quasi gitops stack. I’ve cleaned up my compose files and put the secrets in env files where I hadn’t already, checked them into my new forgejo instance and (mostly) configured renovate. Komodo is about to get productive but I couldn’t find the time yet. Also I need to figure out how to check in secrets in a secure way. I know some but I haven’t tried those with Komodo yet. This close of my fully automated update-on-merge compose stacks!
I’ve also been doing these for quite a while and decided to sometimes post them in !selfhosting@slrpnk.net to possibly help moving a bit from the biggest Lemmy instance, even though this community as it is is perfectly fine as well as it seems.
What’s going on on your servers? Anything you are trying to pursue at the moment?
Since my logs barely move, I just made aliases to where the logs are so it’s quick display and scan them within the terminal. I’m basically just viewing the system logs, fail2ban log and Caddy’s log so it’s fairly quick and simple for me.
The only change I’d like to do is change the output of Caddy’s log file so it’s not a long single line of information per output. I’ll have to do a bit more reading on that so I know what information I want to keep and how I want to visually organize it. At least for the moment, I am familiarising myself with what I am looking at and am slowly figuring out what information is relevant to me.
I like to keep my systems as simple and lean as possible which seems to strongly reflect my general approach to life. I find that kind of interesting.
If you like, check GoAccess on the Caddy Files. You can watch them through that instead of less/cat/whatever to see a nice Dashboard. It helps getting a better overview IMHO.
It looks interesting and seems like it would be easy to set up. I’ll play with it and see how I like it. Thanks for the suggestion
