uptime-kuma VS Nginx Proxy Manager

Uptime Kuma can also monitor certificate expiration; you can also enable it to show you how many days are left until it expires.

2. Uptime Kuma

- Web terminal & live logs

I'm trying it as an alternative to Portainer and I'm loving it. It seems to fit perfectly in my flow.

FYI - Uptime Kuma supports push-based monitoring as well.

Uptime-Kuma for Watching Services

⭐ Uptime-kuma on GitHub

Uptime Kuma is a self-hosted monitoring service that you can use to keep track of the heath of your applications, websites, and APIs. You can configure it to watch services with different types of health checks and set up email notifications for when there are problems. Uptime Kuma also lets you design custom status pages that you can use to share public information about your service health statuses and to manage incidents.

It's for people who owns a log of servers/computers at home and need to monitor its uptime.

For safety reason, it's impossible to expose the system to the public internet, we can only use the "push" strategy to report the up status. This tool is just for this purpose: request an URL at some interval repeatedly.

Recommended to use this with uptime-kuma ( https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma )

I discovered these 3 amazing projects recently:

Cryptpad, essentially google docs/sheets/forms e2e encrypted. It does include collaboration. https://github.com/cryptpad/cryptpad

Immich, google photos self hostable, with share options https://github.com/immich-app/immich

Nginxproxymanager manages certificates and proxies to self hosted stuff through nginx https://github.com/NginxProxyManager/nginx-proxy-manager

Great self hosting stuff!

Nginx Proxy Manager

Prime example: Nginx Proxy Manager is often recommended in the sub. The latest minor release came with breaking changes (so already ignoring semver). I bet you many people were running on latest and then had broken stuff: https://github.com/NginxProxyManager/nginx-proxy-manager/releases/tag/v2.10.0

Here is the (NPM) GitHub issue where the "fork of a fork" image came into existence (lepresidente/nginx-proxy-manager). It has some interesting discussions about the challenges of having NPM and CrowdSec coexist and cooperate.

Agree with this, myQ is such a dumpster fire. It needs to have an the ability to be managed over the local network instead of requiring the garage door and app connect to their server.

My very first experience with myQ was figuring out that their IP blocklist provider, brightcloud, blocks anything with the word "proxy" - including the default "it works" page for Nginx Proxy Manager [1]. And they have no way of overriding this to actually provide service if someone turns out to be a legitimate customer.

As far as website hosting, just set up a few Docker containers: one for a web-server of your choice, and one for a reverse proxy. I recommend Nginx Proxy Manager. It handles SSL certificates for you in a super simple way (both the initial acquisition process as well as auto renewal) and makes it easy to expand to using multiple web servers in the future, or setting up redirects without filling up your DNS records.

Feel like Christian Lempa is being a bit too lenient with the developer of Nginx Proxy Manager. jc21's handling of reported vulnerability was poor. 10 months to fix and then simply including it in the list of changes for v2.9.20 without publishing a security advisory. Not great. And to make matters worse, the project still doesn't have a security policy.

Docker runs on the 3B+ so you could use this [Github] or the one I have deployed here [NGINX Proxy Manager site] amongst others.
