⚠️ Tipi is still at an early stage of development and issues are to be expected. Feel free to open an issue or pull request if you find a bug.

Tipi is a personal homeserver orchestrator. It is running docker containers under the hood and provides a simple web interface to manage them. Every service comes with an opinionated configuration in order to remove the need for manual configuration and network setup.

See the list of apps available and submit your requests in the App Store repo

Ubuntu 18.04 LTS or higher is recommended. However other major Linux distribution are supported but may lead to installation issues. Please file an issue if you encounter one.

Run this in an empty directory where you want to install Tipi.

git clone https://github.com/meienberger/runtipi.git

cd into the downloaded directory and run the start script.

cd runtipi
sudo ./scripts/start.sh

The script will prompt you the ip address of the dashboard once configured. Tipi will run by default on port 80. To select another port you can run the start script with the --port argument

sudo ./scripts/start.sh --port 7000

To stop Tipi, run the stop script.

sudo ./scripts/stop.sh

You can change the default settings by creating a settings.json file. The file should be located in the state directory. This file will make your changes persist across restarts. Example file:

{
  "dnsIp": "9.9.9.9",
  "domain": "mydomain.com"
}

Available settings:

• dnsIp - The IP address of the DNS server to use. Default: 9.9.9.9
• domain - The domain name to use for the dashboard. Default: localhost
• port - The port to use for the dashboard. Default: 80
• sslPort - The port to use for the dashboard with SSL. Default: 443
• listenIp - The IP address to listen on. Default: automatically detected
• storagePath - The path to use for storing data. Default: runtipi/app-data

If you want to link a domain to your dashboard, you can do so by providing the --domain option in the start script.

sudo ./scripts/start.sh --domain mydomain.com

You can also specify it in the settings.json file as shown in the previous section to keep the setting saved across restarts.

A Let's Encrypt certificate will be generated and installed automatically. Make sure to have ports 80 and 443 open on your firewall and that your domain has an A record pointing to your server IP.

Please note that this setting will only expose the dashboard. If you want to expose other apps, you need to configure them individually. You cannot use the --domain option to expose apps.

This option will only work if you keep the default port 80 and 443 for the dashboard.

Make sure Tipi is completely stopped and then remove the runtipi directory.

sudo ./scripts/stop.sh
cd ..
sudo rm -rf runtipi

The bash script app.sh located in the scripts folder contains some snippets from Umbrel's code. Therefore some parts of the code are licensed under the PolyForm Noncommercial License 1.0.0 license. You can for now consider the whole file under this license. We are actively working on re-writing those parts in order to make them available under the GPL license like the rest of our code.
