CHNS Docker Compose Library

A public collection of Docker Compose files I use across my homelab and self-hosted infrastructure. Rather than managing configs directly on each server, I keep everything version-controlled here and pull them into Portainer for deployment.

Feel free to use any of these as a starting point for your own setup. Each application folder also has a companion article linked below where I walk through the full configuration and deployment process.


Applications

Application Description Walkthrough
Doku Docker volume backup and management tool Read the article
Draw.io Self-hosted diagramming and flowchart tool Read the article
Gitea Lightweight self-hosted Git service Read the article
IT-Tools Collection of handy tools for developers and sysadmins Read the article
Seerr / NFS Media request management tool for self-hosted media servers Read the article
Watchtower Automatically keeps Docker container images up to date Read the article

Usage

Each application lives in its own folder with a docker-compose.yaml file. You can use them in a few ways:

Portainer Stack

  1. In Portainer, go to Stacks → Add Stack
  2. Choose Repository and point it at this repo, or use Web editor and paste the compose file contents directly
  3. Set any required environment variables and deploy

Docker Compose CLI

cd <AppName>
docker compose up -d

Make sure to review each compose file for environment variables, volume paths, or other values you may need to adjust for your environment before deploying.
