Hubleys - Brave New Dashboard

So you run a bunch of self-hosted services for multiple users but are tired of handing out links? No problem, Hubleys got you covered.

• separate dashboard per user, according to their groups/permissions
• all dashboard contents are predefined by the admin(s)
• dashboard features:
  • link tiles, organized by folders
  • search engines with autocomplete
  • upcoming calendar events
  • show messages to the users
• customizable & dynamic backgrounds
• current weather & forecast
• clock, stopwatch, timer

Quick Demo

docker run -it --rm -e SINGLE_USER_MODE=1 -e ORIGIN=http://localhost:3000 -p127.0.0.1:3000:3000 ghcr.io/knrdl/hubleys-dashboard:edge

Weather and unsplash backgrounds won't work in demo.

Setup

1. Setup Docker Compose

version: '2.4'

services:
  hubleys:
    image: ghcr.io/knrdl/hubleys-dashboard
    hostname: hubleys
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      OPENWEATHERMAP_API_KEY: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX  # get a free api key: https://home.openweathermap.org/api_keys
      UNSPLASH_API_KEY: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX  # get a free api key (Access Key): https://unsplash.com/oauth/applications
      ADMINS: user:user1, user:user2, group:admins
    volumes:
      - ./data:/data  # run `chown -R 1000:1000 ./data` on the host to fix folder permissions
    networks:
      - proxy  # must be reachable by the reverse proxy
    mem_limit: 100m

Persistent files reside under /data. The file structure is auto-generated on startup:

2. Configure Hubleys

Edit the contents of ./data/config.yml. The default example can be found here. After a config change restart the application OR go to Settings → Admin → Reload application.

Fine-tuning is done via env vars defined here.

3. Configure reverse proxy + auth provider

Hubleys uses forward auth (also known as webproxy auth) to get all relevant user info via http header:

• Remote-User: unique userID, must be present
• Remote-Groups: comma separated group memberships
• Remote-Name: optional display name
• Remote-Email: optional email addr

3.0 How does it work?

graph LR
client[Browser]
proxy[Reverse Proxy]
idp[Auth Provider]
app[Hubleys]
client --1--> proxy
proxy --2--> idp
idp --3--> proxy
proxy --4--> app
app --5--> proxy
proxy --6--> client

1. the browser sends a request to your server
2. the reverse proxy forwards the request to your auth provider (aka IDP)
3. the auth provider checks the request
   • if the user is logged in, it sets the Remote-User response header (and the other headers explained above)
   • if the user is not logged in, it returns the login page
4. the reverse proxy checks and copies the Remote-User header into the request to Hubleys
5. Hubleys reads the Remote-User header and acts according to the user profile
6. send Hubleys response to the client

3.1 Caddy + Authelia example configuration

hubleys.example.org {
	forward_auth authelia:9091 {
		method GET
		uri /api/verify?rd=https://login.example.org
		header_up X-Forwarded-Method {method}
		header_up X-Forwarded-Uri {uri}
		copy_headers Remote-User Remote-Groups Remote-Name Remote-Email
	}

	reverse_proxy hubleys:3000
}

3.2 Nginx + Authelia example configuration

location /authelia {
  internal;
  proxy_pass http://authelia:9091/api/verify;
  proxy_redirect off;
  proxy_pass_request_body off;
  proxy_set_header Content-Length "";
  # this must also be set in order to avoid status code 413 response
  client_max_body_size 0;
  proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
  proxy_set_header X-Original-URL $scheme://$http_host$request_uri;
}

location / {
  proxy_pass            http://hubleys:3000/;
  auth_request          /authelia;
  auth_request_set      $target_url $scheme://$http_host$request_uri;
  proxy_set_header      Upgrade $http_upgrade;
  proxy_set_header      Connection $connection_upgrade;
  proxy_set_header      Remote-User $upstream_http_remote_user;
  proxy_set_header      Remote-Groups $upstream_http_remote_groups;
  proxy_set_header      Remote-Name $upstream_http_remote_name;
  proxy_set_header      Remote-Email $upstream_http_remote_email;
}

4. I need more icons

Please have a look here:

• https://selfh.st/icons/
• https://github.com/walkxcode/dashboard-icons
• https://github.com/Templarian/MaterialDesign
• https://simpleicons.org/

You can download additional icons into the /data/logos folder or just reference the image via it's url in the config.yml
