Homelab Dashboard
A small, self-contained single-page dashboard that links all your homelab services. Static site (HTML + CSS + JS), served by a lightweight nginx image. The optional calendar widget needs the container backend to refresh Google/ICS feeds, but the rest of the dashboard is pure static files.
Services
Internal: Open WebUI, ComfyUI, Gitea, Jellyfin, Immich, Home Assistant, Audio Server / Dubplate, Nextcloud, Vaultwarden, Nginx Proxy Manager, Netbird.
External: gitlab-ixsol, gem360.
Features
- Top widgets: Today (calendar events for today, with in-progress highlighting), Netbird status (reachability + latency), Git activity (recent commits from Gitea and GitLab — 3 rows visible, scroll for more), GPU + Ollama (live AMD ROCm stats: utilization, VRAM, temperature, power; plus loaded Ollama models with their GPU/CPU split)
- Inline Open WebUI prompt line with model selection in the Open WebUI card
(requires
OPENWEBUI_TOKEN) - Responsive grid of service cards with icons, categories and real online status (server-side health checks every minute: green = online, amber = 5xx error, red = unreachable; hover the badge for latency/details)
- Open (new tab) + Copy URL per service
- Live search / filter across names, categories and URLs
- Live local clock
- Calendar section aggregating multiple ICS feeds (refreshed every 15 min in the container)
- Dark, themeable design; respects

Run with Docker
docker compose up -d --build
Then open http://localhost:8888.
The dashboard is static, but the widgets are populated by a small Node.js updater
(api/update-data.js) that runs inside the container and aggregates ICS feeds,
Netbird status, git activity and Open WebUI models every 15 minutes. A second
Node process (api/server.js) proxies chat prompts to Open WebUI.
Environment variables
Secrets (API keys) live in .env (gitignored) — docker compose reads it
automatically. Non-secret settings go directly in docker-compose.yml:
| Variable | Purpose |
|---|---|
TZ |
Timezone used for the "Today" widget (e.g. Europe/Vienna) |
OPENWEBUI_TOKEN |
Open WebUI API key — enables the prompt line + model list (set in .env) |
GITEA_TOKEN |
Gitea API token — private repo stats (public repos work without it) |
GITLAB_TOKEN |
GitLab API token — private project stats (public projects work without it) |
GITLAB_PROXY |
Forward proxy (HTTP CONNECT) for all GitLab requests — git stats and the online badge (set in .env). Change the URL when the proxy stack moves; unset = direct connection. With the proxy on the docker host use http://host.docker.internal:8118 (the container resolves host.docker.internal via extra_hosts) |
GITEA_URL / GITLAB_URL / NETBIRD_URL / OPENWEBUI_URL |
Override the default service URLs |
GPU_STATS_URL |
GPU stats upstream (default: the gpu-stats compose service) |
OLLAMA_URL |
Ollama instance for loaded-model stats (default: http://100.103.83.12:11435) |
OUTLOOK_CLIENT_ID |
Entra ID app client ID for the unread-mail widget (set in .env) |
OUTLOOK_TENANT |
Azure tenant (default: organizations; set to your Directory (tenant) ID if the generic endpoint returns AADSTS50059) |
Outlook unread mail
The Outlook widget (and the unread count) uses the Microsoft Graph API with a one-time device login. Setup:
- Register an app in Microsoft Entra ID (portal.azure.com → Entra ID → App registrations → New registration): any name (e.g. "Homelab Dashboard"), account type "Accounts in this organizational directory only", no redirect URI.
- In the app: Authentication → Allow public client flows → Yes, then API permissions → Add → Microsoft Graph → Delegated → Mail.Read.
- Copy the Application (client) ID — from App registrations → your app →
Overview. Beware: this is not the "Directory (tenant) ID" and not the
"Object ID". A valid-format but wrong GUID produces AADSTS50059
("No tenant-identifying information found"). Put it in
.envasOUTLOOK_CLIENT_ID=. - Set
OUTLOOK_TENANTin.envto your Directory (tenant) ID. Some directories are not resolvable through the genericorganizationsendpoint (also AADSTS50059 with a valid client ID) — the tenant-specific endpoint always works. docker compose up -d --build- Log in once:
Open the printed URL, enter the code and sign in with your work account. The refresh token is persisted in the
docker exec -it homelab-dashboard node /opt/dashboard/outlook-auth.jsoutlook-tokensvolume.
api/update-outlook.js then refreshes unread mail every minute (caching the
access token, and re-running outlook-auth.js is only needed if login is
revoked). If your tenant requires admin consent, ask your admin to grant it
for Mail.Read.
GPU stats service
The gpu-stats compose service runs gpu_stats.py, a tiny HTTP
server that queries rocm-smi. It needs the host's ROCm install and GPU device
nodes, so the compose file mounts /opt/rocm and passes /dev/kfd + /dev/dri.
Set GPU_NAME in docker-compose.yml to your card's name (rocm-smi can't read it
inside the container without libdrm_amdgpu). The widget polls it every 5 s
through /api/gpu-stats.
To run it on the host instead: python3 gpu_stats.py, set
GPU_STATS_URL=http://host.docker.internal:9101/stats on the dashboard service
and add extra_hosts: ["host.docker.internal:host-gateway"].
Without Docker (quick dev)
Any static file server works for the dashboard itself, but the widgets will show errors because the data fetcher and chat proxy run server-side:
# from this directory
python3 -m http.server 8888
# or: npx serve . -l 8888
Edit services
All services live in one array at the top of script.js.
Add / remove / reorder entries there:
{ section: "internal", name: "My Service", url: "http://10.0.0.5:9000", cat: "infra", icon: "⚙️" }
section is either "internal" or "external".
cat is any key from the CATEGORIES map (or add your own).
Build the image manually
docker build -t homelab-dashboard .
docker run -d --name homelab-dashboard -p 8888:80 --restart unless-stopped homelab-dashboard
Notes
- Online badges are real health checks:
api/update-health.js(cron, every minute) pings each service URL from the container with a 5 s timeout and writeshealth.json; the frontend refreshes badges every 30 s. Any HTTP response below 500 counts as online (401/404 still means the server is up); 5xx shows as "Error", timeouts/DNS failures as "Offline". TLS certificate validity is ignored (reachability only). - Calendar dependencies are bundled in
api/node_modulesso the Docker build works offline. To update them, runnpm installin theapi/directory. - Port 8888 is published by the Compose file; change it there if needed.
