Dashy has an **optional** built-in feature for securely backing up your config to a hosted cloud service, and then restoring it on another instance. This feature is totally optional, and if you do not enable it, then Dashy will not make any external network requests.
|
||||
Dashy has an optional feature that can display a small icon next to each of your running services, indicating it's current status. This is useful if you are using Dashy as your homelab's start page, as it gives you an overview of the health of each of your running services. Hovering over the indicator will show additional information, including average response time and an error message for services which are down.
|
||||
|
||||
This is useful not only for backing up your configuration off-site, but it also enables Dashy to be used without having write a YAML config file, and makes it possible to use a public hosted instance, without the need to self-host.
|
||||
By default, this feature is off, but you can enable it globally by setting `appConfig.statusCheck: true`, or enable/ disable it for an individual item, with `item[n].statusCheck`.
|
||||
|
||||
All data is encrypted before being sent to the backend. In Dashy, this is done in [`CloudBackup.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/CloudBackup.js), using [crypto.js](https://github.com/brix/crypto-js)'s AES method, using the users chosen password as the key. The data is then sent to a [Cloudflare worker](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/learning/how-workers-works) (a platform for running serverless functions), and stored in a [KV](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/learning/how-kv-works) data store.
|
||||
You can also specify an time interval in seconds under `appConfig.statusCheckInterval`, between checks, if this value is `0`, then status is only checked on initial page load, which is the default behavior. Status checks use the `url` attribute, but to call a different endpoint instead, you can set `statusCheckUrl`. Custom headers can also be specified using `statusCheckHeaders`.

Even if the target is not set (or is set to `sametab`), you can still launch any given app in an alternative method: Alt + Click will open the modal, and Ctrl + Click will open in a new tab. You can also right-click on any item to see all options (as seen in the screenshot below). This custom context menu can be disabled by setting `appConfig.disableContextMenu: true`.
|
||||
|
||||
In the workspace view, you can keep previously opened websites/ apps open in the background, by setting `appConfig.enableMultiTasking: true`. This comes at the cost of performance, but does mean that your session with each app is preserved, enabling you to quickly switch between your apps.

The modal and workspace views work by rendering the target application in an iframe. For this to work, the HTTP response header [`X-Frame-Options`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/X-Frame-Options) for a given application needs to be set to `ALLOW`. If you are getting a `Refused to Connect` error then this header is set to `DENY` (or `SAMEORIGIN` and it's on a different host).

## Alternate Views 👓
|
||||
|
||||
As well as the default homepage, there is also:
|
||||
- A minimal view, useful for use as a browser start page
|
||||
- A workspace view, useful for visiting many apps simultaneously
|
||||
|
||||
You can change the view from the UI, using the switch icon in the top-right corner, or select a default view in the config, under `appConfig.startingView` attribute (can be either `default`, `minimal` or `workspace`). Clicking the page title on any view will take you back to your default starting view.
|
||||
|
||||
Here's a quick demo of the workspace view:

Page settings are defined under [`pageInfo`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/docs/configuring.md#pageinfo). Here you can set things like title, sub-title, navigation links, footer text, etc

|

- `title` - Your dashboard title, displayed in the header and browser tab
|
||||
- `description` - Description of your dashboard, also displayed as a subtitle
|
||||
- `logo` - The path to an image to display in the header (to the right of the title). This can be either local, where `/` is the root of `./public`, or any remote image, such as `https://i.ibb.co/yhbt6CY/dashy.png`
|
||||
- `navLinks` - Optional list of a maximum of 6 links, which will be displayed in the navigation bar, see [`pageInfo.navLinks`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/docs/configuring.md#pageinfonavlinks-optional) for structure
