Hello.

I have home server with Home Assistant and small VPSes. I want to monitor one of the VPS in Home Assistant. I know that Glances could be the best choice here, but I cannot connect Glances wuth Home Assistant (I can access to web interface hosted directly on VPS, but I cannot connect it to Home Assistant). Is there a light alternative that I can quickly install on VPS server (ubuntu) and connect it with Home Assistant? I don't need a lot of metrics - only CPU, RAM, Load and maybe net traffic. I am open to standards like MQTT.

I tried another TeX editors, but I had some problems with packages that I need in my documents :(. But I would left Overleaf bc it is really heavy software.

Yeah, Even Dockge can do that

I know, That's why I said I always look for Docker Compose bc it is the easier option.

The easier option is hunting for Docker Compose...

I know some Docker, even I built my own images, but I just don't really like Docker.

yeah, it is available in yunohost catalog https://apps.yunohost.org/app/overleaf and as Docker project.

I would guess that you need to learn more about Docker usage in general, rather than just looking for a Docker Compose file

Yeah, I don't really like using Docker so I always go for easier option, but my friend uses Docker a lot and also had troubles with Overleaf.

Also, I’d like to point out that Overleaf’s hosting and pricing options are quite reasonable, especially if you’re working for a university or institution: https://www.overleaf.com/user/subscription/plans

I don't work for university, but I am a student that needs Latex. Overleaf free plan got really bad, even my thesis cannot be compiled now and Overleaf pricing isn't really great. Student pricing is only for annually subscription, so it is not ideal for me.

 

Do any of you self-host Overleaf? I know there is a Docker project, but from what I've heard it's not easy to install. The Yunohost version used to work but didn't support file upload, so that makes it bad too.

Have any of you successfully installed Overleaf with e.g. Docker and it works just fine? If so, could any of you share e.g. the Docker Compose file?

Gitlab isn't really lightweight. It is cool, but not lightweight.

Plus they always try to hide how stuff works behind the scenes so that day that upgrade script has a bug and fails, it’s hard to revert to a working stage.

Yunohost is creating backups for apps that are being updated. If update fails, it automatically reverts. Yes, it works, I checked.

those projects get eventually abandoned,

Yunohost is here for years now, and it does not look like it will be abondoned any time soon.

 

Are any of you hosting using Snaps?

Deploying snap apps is really easy, but the catalog is quite small. I use one snap app (Ghostscript) for printing server and it works just fine.
