Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

The easiest would be using docker, you can set up the container to always restart, that way it will be started automatically on NAS restart.
You can also download node.js from the Synology software center and manually add a cronjob to run after reboot, but the docker way is probably the best way to go.
How do you run a docker container on Synology? I have a DS923+ which AFAIK should be able to run it, but when I search for Docker in the Package Manager the only thing that comes up is Synology's own container manager, and I have no idea how to work with that.
IIRC, that's exactly it. You can either use their GUI (which is not half bad) or you can use the docker command in the terminal after you install the package.
Is there a way to get a terminal on the Synology itself, or is SSH from my PC the only way?
I only ever used SSH, so I don't know.
