  • Do you have a specific use case for two containers that you want to talk to each other?

    Sure, for example once a Jitsi Meet meeting ends (more than 1 person in a room in, everybody gone), save the chat log to CopyParty e.g. WebDAV push to /meetingname_date.txt would be enough to be useful. It’s something we tend to do manually on a regular basis.

    road map of what you are trying to accomplish before hand, and run it by the dev teams.

    Yes no rush and I can code so I would be able to test before suggesting anything.

    As I’m thinking about it, I wonder if your solution might be automation?

    I don’t touch AI but I do think conventions, e.g. not “just” an API but SWAGGER, specific filesystem on mountpoints, etc could facilitate this.



  • Thanks, that’s indeed exactly the kind of thing I’m looking for “The authentication glue you need.” but even more generalized than that, e.g. just “the glue you need.” not solely for authentication.

    Edit: to clarify and coming back after leaving few other comments, the 1 thing authentik has is that it is a cross-service need, namely nearly all services do need authentication AND, probably consequence of that, there are conventions and standards already in place, e.g. SAML, OAuth2/OIDC, LDAP, Auth0. So that makes everything much easier.






  • Well I do have Home Assistant, been running it for years, but HA is solely for … well home assisting (or IoT). HA as integrations but let’s say I want to use HA with … any of my other services, e.g. CopyParty to maybe store logs and makes them available or PeerTube to have videos from my camera, I can look at HA integrations, or CopyParty… issues maybe, or PeerTube npm registry.

    My point being that HA is a good example with integrations but it’s just one example. If I do take this example seriously though, is there a mechanism beside manual search in the list of integration that would list integrations with my services directly?



  • Different networks entirely. AFAICT no IP is hardcoded, only domain names which are the same.

    But… please feel free to check the URL, it seems to work.

    My hypothesis is that the player in the browser, maybe due to WebWorks, had cached the IP of the content. So I was getting the UI/API from the new IP but the content itself (namely video files) from the old IP which might have created some CORS/CSP issues and that the player itself blocked it. (updating the post on the forum with that idea in case others get in a similar situation)


  • Is the docker container spinning up and running, or failing and exiting?

    Running and healthy

    Run docker ps, it’ll tell you how long your containers have been running or if they exited.

    Indeed and they don’t exit.

    If everything is running then it’s most likely network, and I’d need to know how it is you used to access it on the old server (web address? Ip?)

    It it accessible via the domain name so networking, as least for UI and API, is working fine. Reverse proxy does let traffic go through.

    If it’s not running then you get to dig through error logs to get to the next step 🤓

    I checked error logs of all containers and seems fine. The only error I see are client side.










  • Unfortunately unless we as citizens are dedicated (investing the time too coordinate and act) and educated (about the topics at hands, including the ones we do not care about) enough for anarchy we do need representatives.

    If we are not ready for anarchism then we need a system with representatives. They do not have to be professionals and they could be temporary (e.g. max N years/mandate) or part time (e.g. max 10hrs/week) or whatever other rules we deem required.

    If we are not ready for either then we leave a power vacuum that will be taken by whomever is more powerful, including those ready to use power in the most unethical ways, bribing, coercion, murder, etc.

    So… even though 99.99% of politicians might be corrupt, maybe 99.999% even started uncorrupted (funnily enough not even a word in my browser dictionary) but the system itself in order to reach and hold power did corrupt them, the alternative is IMHO even worst.

    That being said don’t ask me to point out a .00% of uncorrupted politicians. I do have some ideas but even there I didn’t do the background check necessary so I might be biased.

    Finally why do I bother writing this? Well because I worry that the power vacuum can be created and then abused by political actors outside of democracies.
