A minimalistic homelab homepage

eblechschmidt · March 19, 2025, 8:08pm

I don’t know if this is useful to anyone but me but I wrote a small go application for displaying a simple homepage for my homelab. It comes with a NixOS module for easy configuration.

Feedback for both the go and nix parts is welcome.

Cool stuff, I was looking for ideas to make something similar. I have one question, is this line of code intentional?

eblechschmidt/nixhome/blob/3520be8a2fe8ebc5a44645b784ad4b2a61cbdd5f/nix/module.nix#L166


      
          systemd.tmpfiles.rules = [
            "d ${cfg.dataDir} 750 nixhome nixhome"
          ];
          systemd.services.nixhome = {
            wantedBy = ["multi-user.target"];
            serviceConfig = {
              Restart = "on-failure";
              User = "nixhome";
              Group = "nixhome";
              DynamicUser = true;
              StateDirectory = "photoprism";
              WorkingDirectory = "${cfg.dataDir}";
              RuntimeDirectory = "nixhome";
              ReadWritePaths = [
                cfg.dataDir
              ];
          
              LockPersonality = true;
              PrivateDevices = true;
              PrivateUsers = true;
              ProtectClock = true;
