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.

This is my exact setup and I love it (especially in comparison to the prometheus stack which I have to use at work). telegraf is so easy to use and extend. I have my own custom metrics for things like speed of my home internet connection (runs speedtests every hour), listener counts on my custom/private internet radio stream, or even fetching the daily food trucks rotation at a nearby lunch site (influx can handle text data!)
I don't do anything for logging but I also like UptimeKuma to keep and eye on things I run. Grafana has alerting but I find it pretty horrible.
Definitely... you can write custom scripts that Telegraf will run and write that data to Influx. For instance, I have one that writes the Gateway status information from pfSense so I can track and graph any internet downtime.
