Server

  • 16 GB RAM
  • 1 TB SSD

Install a Debian stable base OS.

Maybe libvirt-kvm manager controlled remotely from libvirt-manager, and configure multiple virtual machines for different domains and use cases.

Apps to Host

  • Nextcloud instance
    • With a clean slate; my 80+GB of Google Photos export can be ousted to a different app.
    • Contacts & Calendar hosting.
  • PhotoPrism or similar web photos app.
    • Import my Google Photos and such to this program.
    • A cron script should sync Nextcloud InstantUpload photos in, so new camera photos join the gallery automatically.
  • Matrix.org chat server.
    • Look into bridges for Telegram, Signal, Slack and Discord.
    • Matrix clients available for desktops, Android/iOS and Pinephone!
  • Gitea git instance for personal (non "bus proof") projects, probably mainly helper scripts and configs to manage the Server itself.
  • Drone or other CI program: maybe get automated builds for my game this way.

Some LAN facing apps in particular:

  • Pihole DNS resolver for network adblocking.
  • Jellyfin media streaming server (for local movies, TV shows etc.)
  • Samba SMB file shares for network drives.

Virtual Machines

Apps should be spread across different virtual machines depending on their risk level, especially public facing apps like Nextcloud.

Nextcloud

~2GB RAM.

Will run the Nextcloud app and other PHP applications. A bind mount folder will let it persist its nextcloud-data to the host filesystem somewhere.

  • Nextcloud
  • PhotoPrism
  • Jellyfin
  • Matrix server

Development

~2GB RAM.

  • Gitea git server.
  • Drone CI server.
  • Pihole server.
  • Misc web hooks (e.g. CGI scripts)

Databases?

~4GB RAM.

PostgreSQL and MySQL servers as needed by other apps.

Mac OS?

If we can get a QEMU macOS VM situated well it could be nice to have one running for possible CI and building my game for Mac.
