Drop Apache+mod_php for the actual performance win — nginx + PHP-FPM — without the LinuxServer image cascade (custom auto-install, /custom-cont-init.d, abc-vs- www-data rewrites in the auth adapter + every tool, HTTPS-by-default quirks). The official fpm-alpine image keeps env-var auto-install and the www-data user, so the auth adapter, all tools, and the compose-tags hook keep working unchanged. - Compose: nextcloud-service is now fpm-alpine (still container_name=nextcloud- service so docker exec ... nextcloud-service php occ in the auth adapter is untouched). New nextcloud-web nginx sidecar serves :80 over the shared ./html volume, terminating FastCGI to nextcloud-service:9000. Traefik labels + PORTS_ TAG_1 move to nextcloud-web (the HTTP face); backup.files stays on -service (the file-owning brain). nextcloud-db + nextcloud-redis unchanged. - resources/nginx.conf: Nextcloud's recommended nginx config, trimmed for behind-Traefik (no TLS), large-upload + caldav/carddav/.well-known redirects. - scripts/nextcloud_update_specifics.sh: NEW post-install hook — appUpdateSpecifics_nextcloud waits for first-boot occ install to complete (config.php + occ status=installed), then wires Redis as memcache.distributed + memcache.locking via occ config:system:set. Idempotent. Auto-install is unchanged (official image's NEXTCLOUD_ADMIN_USER + MYSQL_* env flow). Redis caching now actually USED by Nextcloud (previously the container was up but config.php had no memcache config). Container-side backup capture still the right answer for the perm boundary — image change doesn't affect it. Verified statically: yaml structure, hook parses + dispatches + has the right graceful-timeout fallback when occ isn't reachable. Live verification (sync performance + actual Redis hit rate + traefik proxy of FastCGI) needs a fresh install on a throwaway box.

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/USER.md — install, place data on separate disks/drives, update, back up, uninstall.
- docs/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.
