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 or Dockhand 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.

Usage
Each application lives in its own folder with a docker-compose.yaml file. You can use them in a few ways:
Portainer Stack
- In Portainer, go to Stacks → Add Stack
- Choose Repository and point it at this repo, or use Web editor and paste the compose file contents directly
- Set any required environment variables and deploy
Dockhand Stack
- In Dockhand, go to Stacks → Add Stack
- Choose Repository and point it at this repo, or use Web editor and paste the compose file contents directly
- Set any required environment variables and deploy
Docker Compose CLI
cd <AppName>
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env and fill in your values
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.
