Common questions
Where do I edit the dashboard configuration and does it hot reload?
You edit /config/homelabdash.yaml, and the page follows every save. On first start, homelabdash writes a starter file to begin from.
Do I put API keys and passwords in the main YAML file?
Keys and passwords should go in config/secrets.yaml and be referenced in the main config. They never reach the browser.
How can I check my configuration before it causes problems?
Run homelabdash validate to check the whole folder and print each problem as file:line path: message. If a change is invalid, the last good config keeps running.
Does homelabdash have built-in login?
There is no login by default. Keep it on your LAN or put it behind a reverse proxy that signs you in.
How are live tile updates delivered?
The server polls each service on its own interval and pushes changes over a WebSocket. A service is fetched once even if multiple tiles show it.
