I was modifying my umbrel apps docker-compose to give specific ones access to persistant storage (context: I have a large media collection and just needed to point my plex and *arr’s to the correct directory) and was finding the process of going into the specific scripts directory, looking into the …

Here is a list of script files and their commands that I have so far (will work on formatting of this post as I have time to make it read easier): Umbrel – root call command ( if blank should report either umbrel-details or help command) OS only commands: umbrel-details: like umbrels version of n…

I have finished creating my umbrel-cli. It is but a quick dropin script that is then setup to be callable on the terminal by calling ‘umbrel’. This will let the user configure, stop, start and backup their umbrel as well as manage apps and repos running under Umbrel as well. If you use this dropin …

Hey @B0G0311 , thanks this is really interesting. I usually refer people to our repo where they can see the different scripts there, but this is much better. I will share this with the team!

That’s awesome, I’m glad that to see that its useful for people. I actually had to push a setup breaking fix today because I had a small typo, should be working now.

I have yet to fully explore the external-storage options yet. My immediate thought, is to use the terminal command to just front end umount or similar command for the mount and unmount operations. The biggest hardship for adding volumes to the specific docker container would be that managing it woul…

I’m honestly not too certain on its function, I understood it as adding a replacement to the app repo that enables the store if you wanted to manage that yourself for more stringent version control. However, I did not make the script because as of right not umbrel-cli just uses the previously existi…

I updated umbrel-cli as it should now not only contain access to all user accessible scripts but that the setup should now be pretty seamless to enable you to be ready to roll out using umbrel-cli after the steps involved in the README.md. This being said I have not tested on other hardware and do …

Also important to mention how to run the scripts, I’m not sure if there’s a shorter command than the following: [image] Can't install apps Try it like this instead cd ~/umbrel Stop Umbrel: sudo scripts/stop Reboot your system: sudo reboot cd ~/umbrel Start Umbrel: sud…
