See Database Documentation for complete details.


Network Configuration

Docker Networks

  • traefik_proxy - External network shared with Traefik (on 192.168.12.3)
  • Multiple service-specific internal networks for isolation

Traefik Configuration

Traefik runs on the Hetzner server (192.168.12.3) and routes traffic to services on this server.

Configuration managed via:

  • Central Traefik config file: ~/dyno.yml (on 192.168.12.3)
  • Web interface: Traefik Configuration Manager (tm.3ddbrewery.com)

Services are accessed via:

  • *.3ddbrewery.com - Primary domain
  • *.fails.me - Secondary domain

Access & Domains

All services are accessed through Traefik reverse proxy with automatic HTTPS:

Examples:

  • Books: books.3ddbrewery.com
  • Mixarr: mixarr.3ddbrewery.com (web), api.mixarr.3ddbrewery.com (API)
  • Emby: m.3ddbrewery.com, tv.3ddbrewery.com
  • Sonarr: sonarr.3ddbrewery.com
  • Homepage: h.3ddbrewery.com

Authentication handled by Authentik (running on 192.168.12.3) for most services.


Important Notes

Storage Volumes

  • /mnt/docker-storage/appdata - Primary application data directory
  • /home/maddox/docker/appdata - Additional application directory
  • /volume1/Media - Media files (NAS mount)
  • /volume1/Downloads - Download staging area
  • /volume1/archive - Archive storage

Container Management

  • Watchtower handles automatic updates for most containers
  • Some containers have updates disabled (books_webv2, store-matching, speedracer)
  • Use docker-compose commands within service directories for manual management

Port Conflicts

Port 3000 is used by Books V2 frontend, which is why Mixarr web uses port 3006.


Multi-Server Infrastructure

This server works in conjunction with the Hetzner Server (192.168.12.3):

  • Hetzner Server runs: Traefik, Authentik SSO, MariaDB replica, Firefly III, Node-RED
  • This Server runs: All media services, custom apps, productivity tools
  • Both servers connected via Tailscale mesh VPN
  • Traefik on Hetzner routes to services on this server

See Hetzner Server Documentation for the companion server.
