# Homelable A self-hosted, open-source tool to visually map, document and monitor your homelab infrastructure. Interactive network canvas where each node is a physical machine, VM, LXC container, switch, or device. Nodes show live status, IPs, hostnames, and running services. Edges represent network links. --- ## Features - **Interactive canvas** — drag, zoom, pan, snap-to-grid (React Flow) - **11 node types** — ISP, router, switch, server, Proxmox, VM, LXC, NAS, IoT, AP, generic - **5 edge types** — ethernet, Wi-Fi, IoT, VLAN (color-coded), virtual - **Live status** — per-node checks via ping / HTTP / HTTPS / SSH / TCP / Prometheus - **Network scanner** — nmap-based discovery, approve/hide/ignore new devices - **Auto-layout** — one-click Dagre hierarchical arrangement - **Export** — download canvas as PNG - **Dark theme** — neon accent colors, JetBrains Mono for technical values - **Self-contained** — SQLite database, single config file, no cloud dependency --- ## Quick Start — Docker ```bash git clone https://github.com/you/homelable.git cd homelable docker compose up -d ``` Open **http://localhost:3000** — login with `admin` / `admin`. > Change the password before exposing to a network: edit `backend/config.yml` and replace `password_hash` with a new bcrypt hash. > > Generate a hash: `docker compose exec backend python -c "from passlib.context import CryptContext; print(CryptContext(schemes=['bcrypt']).hash('yourpassword'))"` --- ## Quick Start — Development **Backend (Python 3.13):** ```bash cd backend python3.13 -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate pip install -r requirements.txt cp .env.example .env # edit SECRET_KEY uvicorn app.main:app --reload --port 8000 ``` **Frontend:** ```bash cd frontend npm install npm run dev # http://localhost:5173 ``` Default login: `admin` / `admin` --- ## Proxmox LXC Install Run inside a Debian/Ubuntu LXC container: ```bash bash <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/you/homelable/main/scripts/lxc-install.sh) ``` This installs the backend as a systemd service and serves the frontend via nginx. --- ## Configuration `backend/config.yml`: ```yaml auth: username: admin password_hash: "$2b$12$..." # bcrypt hash scanner: ranges: - "192.168.1.0/24" # CIDR ranges to scan status_checker: interval_seconds: 60 # how often to check node status ``` All settings are also editable in-app via the **Scan Network** button. --- ## Node Check Methods | Method | Description | |--------|-------------| | `ping` | ICMP ping | | `http` | GET request, success if status < 500 | | `https` | GET with TLS verify | | `tcp` | TCP connect (target: `host:port`) | | `ssh` | TCP connect to port 22 | | `prometheus` | GET `/metrics` | | `health` | GET `/health` | --- ## Stack | Layer | Tech | |-------|------| | Frontend | React 18, TypeScript, Vite, React Flow v12, Zustand, Tailwind CSS, Shadcn/ui | | Backend | FastAPI, SQLAlchemy async, SQLite, APScheduler, python-nmap | | Auth | JWT (python-jose), bcrypt (passlib) | | Deployment | Docker Compose, nginx, systemd | --- ## Development ```bash # Backend tests cd backend && source .venv/bin/activate pytest # 40 tests # Backend lint ruff check . # Frontend tests cd frontend && npm test # Frontend lint + typecheck npm run lint && npm run typecheck ```
