Reading earlier comments in this community made me consider documenting the workings of my homelab to some extent, ie. docker configuration, credentials, ports and links of my services. I’ve tried it to make it consistent and organised but it still feels half baked and insufficient. Everyone suggests documenting everything you do in your homelab but don’t state how. Since I’ve hardly had experience running my own server, I would really appreciate observing the blueprint of some other fellow selfhoster for copying or taking inspiration from rather than considering the note taking to be ‘left as an exercise for the reader’.
That’s the neat part, I don’t!
I have a docker-compose file, which is somewhat self-documenting, especially since I give everything descriptive names. Creds go in bitwarden anyway.
But then, my environment isn’t that complex, and I don’t have anything so custom that I need notes to replicate it.
