Docs / Using CloudZH

Apps & App Store

Install, update and remove apps with a live console. Each app gets its own address and its data under one tree.

Installing

Choose an app in the App Store and click Install. Some apps show a short form first, for example SABnzbd (Usenet server) and Plex (sign-in and libraries). Apps that create their own passwords, such as Paperless-ngx, Vaultwarden and Sonobarr, show the start password on the app page.

App page

Start, stop, restart, update the image, read logs, see CPU and memory, open the app. Admin apps open at <app>.example.com behind your dashboard login (example.com stands for your domain). In LAN mode an app opens at the server address and its usual port.

Homelab tab

39 further projects we looked at, with load (light, medium, heavy), requirements and notes: Home Assistant, Frigate, TP-Link Omada, Scrutiny, Apache Guacamole and others. They are not installable from the tab. Use Add your own app if you need one now.

Discord notifications from your apps

With Pro, Integrate Discord with App in the Homelab tab connects Radarr, Sonarr, Lidarr, Prowlarr, SABnzbd, Tautulli or Seerr to a Discord channel. Pick the app, create a webhook in Discord (Edit Channel → Integrations → Webhooks) and paste its address, choose the events. CloudZH sets it up inside the app and sends a test message, so you never open the app's own settings.

Your own apps

Add a compose app of your own under Apps. It gets a card, a subdomain behind the login, logs and backups. Own apps keep a two-letter icon and never get a setup form.

Native apps

WireGuard and UniFi OS Server do not run in Docker. Install them on the server:

zh vpn install
zh unifi install

Left out on purpose

Torrent clients and tools around them, Readarr (discontinued), Overseerr, Jellyseerr and Ombi (replaced by Seerr), Unpackerr (SABnzbd unpacks itself), other dashboards and Docker managers.
