# home-collector
Feeds the private dashboard at `/start` (also the browser new-tab page). The app container has
no Docker socket and must not get one, so a small stdlib-only Python script runs on the host
every minute (systemd **user** timer `home-collector.timer`) and upserts two rows into
`home.snapshots`:
| key | contents |
| ------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `host` | CPU %, load, uptime, RAM, swap, disk; every Docker container (state, health, restart count, CPU/mem via `sudo docker`); systemd timers (`stan-backup*`, `postgres-backup*`, `disk-guard-*`, `house-scrape`, `b2-cost`, `groceries-import`, `money-sync`, `ned-collector-*`) with last/next run and result; HTTP up/down + latency for each self-hosted service; latest `~/backups-cost/daily/*.json` |
| `ntfy` | the last 40 messages (72 h) from the ntfy topics in `~/.config/disk-guard.env` (`NTFY_URL`) and `~/.config/house-scrape.env` (`HOUSE_NTFY_URL`), plus `NTFY_EXTRA`. Only a label is stored, never the topic name. |
The page reads both rows in the same parallel query batch as tasks and links, so a slow
upstream never delays it; a snapshot older than 3 minutes is shown as stale.
## Live stats (1 s)
On top of the minute snapshot, `/start` opens a Server-Sent Events stream (`/start/live`,
owner only) while the tab is visible. The app reads netdata on the host
(`NETDATA_URL`, default `http://100.116.93.104:19999`, the Tailscale-only bind) once a second
through one shared poller (`src/lib/server/live-stats.ts`): host CPU, RAM, network, disk IO
and per-container CPU/mem/state/health (netdata's docker and cgroups collectors), so the app
still never touches the Docker socket. The poller stops 5 s after the last viewer leaves.
The app container reaches netdata through one ufw rule:
`ufw allow in on br-c1585f0009ac from 172.26.0.0/16 to 100.116.93.104 port 19999 proto tcp`
(the `backend` compose network's bridge).
## Setup
1. A login role that may only upsert snapshots (created once, cluster superuser):
`CREATE ROLE home_collector LOGIN CONNECTION LIMIT 3 PASSWORD '…'; GRANT CONNECT ON DATABASE personal TO home_collector;`
The `home` migration grants `USAGE` on the schema and `SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE` on
`home.snapshots` when the role exists (re-run those two GRANTs by hand if the role is created later).
2. `~/.config/home-collector.env` (mode 600):
```
HOME_DB_URL=postgresql://home_collector:…@127.0.0.1:5440/personal
# optional extra topics, e.g. the backup alerts from /etc/stan-backup:
# NTFY_EXTRA=backups=https://ntfy.sh/<topic>
```
3. `bash deploy/home-collector/install.sh` (copies the script to `~/.local/bin/home-collector`
and enables the timer). Re-run after editing the script, e.g. to add a service to `SERVICES`.
Debug: `python3 ~/.local/bin/home-collector --print`, `journalctl --user -u home-collector -n 20`.
