I’ve tried GetHomepage and while I’ve configured most of it I’ve had a few troubles due to the instructions being very incomplete and confusing.

The one problem that eluded me was setting paperlessngx widget. Worth nothing that, unlike the other services, paperlessngx is running on docker-compose on my server. While the widget detects the service, it never gets any information

Eventually it just gives an API error

# services.yaml (just the relevant part)
   
     - Paperless-ngx:
        href: http://<myserverhost:port>
        description: Document Management System
        icon: https://static-00.iconduck.com/assets.00/paperless-icon-426x512-eoik3emb.png
        server: paperless
        widget:
          type: paperlessngx
          url: http://<local-ip:port>
          token: <token-configured-inside-paperless>


    #docker.yaml

    paperless:
      host: <local-ip>
      port: <port>

I’m out of ideas. Unfortunately the only instructions are on the site and they aren’t easy to follow if you’re not already familiarized with docker.

    Where is paperless in relation to homepage? For me i have both of them in the same docker host and same docker network on that host and with that i only need to set the paperless container name in the widget. If paperless is on another machine make sure there is no firewall blocking the port number.

      They are both a docker-compose on the same machine.

        Then you should be able to do like I said and it might solve whatever is happening. I also have both homepage and paperless in the same docker-compose file. If you set the container name for each container then you can just reference that in homepage widgets. For example here is my homepage and paperless:

        homepage:
    image: ghcr.io/gethomepage/homepage:latest
    container_name: homepage
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/Berlin
    volumes:
      - /opt/docker/homepage:/app/config
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro # (optional) For docker integrations)

  paperless:
    image: ghcr.io/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx:latest
    container_name: paperless
    restart: unless-stopped
    depends_on:
      - paperless-redis
      - postgres
    networks:
      - proxy
    user: "1000"
    environment:
      - USERMAP_UID=1000
      - USERMAP_GID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/Berlin
      - PAPERLESS_REDIS=redis://paperless-redis:6379
      - PAPERLESS_TIKA_ENABLED=1
      - PAPERLESS_TIKA_GOTENBERG_ENDPOINT=http://gotenberg:3000/
      - PAPERLESS_TIKA_ENDPOINT=http://tika:9998/
      - PAPERLESS_DBENGINE=postgresql
      - PAPERLESS_DBHOST=postgres
      - PAPERLESS_DBNAME=paperless
      - PAPERLESS_DBUSER=paperless
      - PAPERLESS_DBPASS=password
    volumes:
      - /opt/docker/paperless/data:/usr/src/paperless/data
      - /opt/docker/paperless/export:/usr/src/paperless/export
      - /opt/docker/paperless/consume:/usr/src/paperless/consume
      - /mnt/paperless:/usr/src/paperless/media

        so both have conatiner_name set to the same string as the service name. And in my homepage widgets I just use the container name in the URL, example:

            - Paperless:
        icon: paperless-ngx
        href: https://paperless.local.tld/
        widget:
            type: paperlessngx
            url: http://paperless:8000/
            username: username
            password: password

        This only works if they are in the same docker network. If you don’t explicitly set the network for the containers and they are in the same compose file then they should be in the same network.
