Adds the decision half of the app updater. Detection (P2) and the snapshot-first apply/revert (P3) were already real, but nothing ever pressed the button — every update waited for a click. CFG_<APP>_UPDATE_TYPE=auto|manual per app, default auto (33 templates) CFG_UPDATER_AUTO=true|false master switch, default true updaterAppPolicy resolves the two the way backupResolveStrategy already resolves backup strategy: the global switch can only make things more manual. updaterApplyAuto runs at the end of `updater check` and enqueues the ordinary updater_apply task for each auto app that has an update — never applies inline, so an automatic update is the same code path, task log, History entry and Roll back button as a manual one. Safety: each attempt stamps its target digest under generated/auto/, so a build that fails is rolled back and then left alone rather than retried on every scan; in-flight updater tasks are skipped so scans can't stack. Tracked end to end: updates.json carries each app's resolved update_type, History entries carry trigger=manual|auto. The WebUI says whether updates install themselves, chips only the apps that opted out, labels automatic history, and — since an auto app's pending update needs no decision — keeps it off the Overview board's "Needs action" view. Also fixes artifactApplyAuto enqueueing without --detach: it runs inside the single-threaded task processor's own poll, so following the new task in the foreground waits for a task that cannot start until it returns.

LibrePortal
Your own private corner of the internet — free, open, and yours.
LibrePortal is a self-hosted platform for running the apps you rely on, on your own server: one-click installs, a reverse proxy with automatic SSL, rootless Docker, optional VPN routing, and a clean web dashboard to manage it all.
⚠️ v0.1.0 — early days. Expect rough edges while things settle.
Why LibrePortal
Too many services today treat your data as theirs to take — quietly overstepping boundaries that should never have been crossed. LibrePortal grew out of frustration with that: it's a way to run the apps you depend on on your own server, where your data stays yours. Privacy here isn't a feature to toggle — it's the whole point.
Free & open — forever
The entire platform is free software under the GNU AGPLv3. Self-host it and you get everything — every feature, no paywalls, no telemetry. See our Promise for exactly what that means.
What you get
- 📦 One-click self-hosted apps (Nextcloud, Vaultwarden, Jellyfin, Gitea, …)
- 🔀 Traefik reverse proxy + automatic Let's Encrypt SSL
- 🔒 Rootless Docker, CrowdSec, sane security defaults
- 🛡️ Optional VPN routing (gluetun) for any app
- 🖥️ A web dashboard to install, configure, back up, and monitor everything
Quick start
curl -fsSL https://get.libreportal.org/install.sh | sudo bash
This installs a versioned, checksum-verified release (Debian/Ubuntu, root). Put
data on separate disks with --system-dir= / --containers-dir= / --backups-dir=.
The
get.libreportal.orghost is still being set up — until it's live, build a release and install from it locally (see the docs below).
Documentation
- docs/guide/install-and-use.md — install, place data on separate disks/drives, update, back up, uninstall.
- docs/contributing/development.md — run a dev copy, cut stable/edge releases, and test them before publishing.
LibrePortal Connect (optional)
Self-hosting is free and complete. If you'd rather not fiddle with the tricky parts — like reaching your server from your phone, or keeping off-site backups — LibrePortal Connect will handle them for you. Here's the catch that makes us different: we work like a courier carrying a sealed box. We move your data between your devices and store backup copies, but it stays locked and you hold the only key — we can't open it, and we never run your apps for you. Everything we offer, you can also set up yourself for free. Our Promise spells out exactly where that line sits.
Contributing
PRs welcome — see CONTRIBUTING.md. We use a lightweight
DCO sign-off (git commit -s), no CLA.
Acknowledgments
LibrePortal has been built from scratch since 2023. Its spark of inspiration
was a small installer script from Brian McGonagill (OpenSourceIsAwesome):
gitlab.com/bmcgonag/docker_installs.
From that seed it grew start to finish — refined, extended, and refactored
into the platform it is today.
