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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

The rate limit for GraphQL is allowing up to 5000 points per hour

When using the automatic GITHUB_TOKEN created for each GH actions workflow, the limit is only 1000 requests per hour [1]. The list has 1080 projects whose source is hosted on github, and we must do 2 API calls for each one because for some reason the date of last commit to the default branch is not available directly from the repos API endpoint [2] (do not trust updated_at/pushed_at, it's a lie). So we currently have to add a sleep of ~7 seconds between each API call to not hit the rate limit for the metadata update job that runs daily.

The limit of 5000 requests/hour only applies to personal access tokens which have far too many permissions on my personal account to be used in a shared/community project.

Someone in https://old.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/15y7y36 mentioned https://analyzemyrepo.com/analyze/inventree/InvenTree which may be interesting to integrate somehow.
