Grocy

Purpose

This page is to cover information around the Grocy household management solution.

It has both a single desktop application for those who don’t want to host/serve something and also a docker setup. I needed more exposure to Docker and this was a great little project. The Android apps, etc. all work, it’s still up and running via the following :

  1. Docker container running on the homelab server
  2. Caddyserver routing https requests to the Docker container
  3. OpenVPN installed on remote endpoints provides remote access
    • No external traffic allowed through the firewall
  4. The steep setup time around other items (inventory tracking, grocery lists, etc.) aren’t justified at the moment, but very well could be in the future.

Unfortunately there really isn’t a lot to go over for the installation and setup of this one. The deployment installations from the GitHub repo are very thorough.
