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.

Sorry, I forgot to post the scripts. I'm a meathead electrical engineer so I don't use GIT or anything so here is the code dump. To summarize the setup's software:
The backup script is fairly boring, just runs rsync and pushes the rsync log files back to the primary server. If it fails it sends me an email before turning the ethernet back off and going black.
#So here is my python code that runs the button press:
#bash script that toggles the ethernet - if its on, it turns it off. if its off, it turns it on:
I very much feel the desire to stay away from Git repos for singular scripts like this. Maybe consider making it a gist though. Easier to keep track of by starring it in GitHub and perhaps even iterate on it in the future. :)
I use Joplin notes to track my code revisions. It's incredibly crude but it works and keeps my documention private and is also my wiki for each server so I know what the heck I setup and did.
