Fix inconsistent markdown formatting.

This changes all of the documentation markdown files to follow
the same rules. The rules I've applied are from
https://github.com/DavidAnson/markdownlint/blob/v0.25.1/doc/Rules.md

The reason I felt it was necessary
to change all the files was
that there were a lot inconsistencies in how the markdown was used.
Ranging from header levels to some headers having a new line before
content and some not.

## Built-In Auth
Dashy has a basic login page included, and frontend authentication. You can enable this by adding users to the `auth` section under `appConfig` in your `conf.yml`. If this section is not specified, then no authentication will be required to access the app, and it the homepage will resolve to your dashboard.
### Setting Up Authentication
The `auth` property takes an array of users. Each user needs to include a username, hash and optional user type (`admin` or `normal`). The hash property is a [SHA-256 Hash](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SHA-2) of your desired password.
For example:
```yaml
appConfig:
auth:
@ -37,18 +40,23 @@ appConfig:
```
### Hash Password
Dashy uses [SHA-256 Hash](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sha-256), a 64-character string, which you can generate using an online tool, such as [this one](https://passwordsgenerator.net/sha256-hash-generator/) or [CyberChef](https://gchq.github.io/CyberChef/) (which can be self-hosted/ ran locally).
A hash is a one-way cryptographic function, meaning that it is easy to generate a hash for a given password, but very hard to determine the original password for a given hash. This means, that so long as your password is long, strong and unique, it is safe to store it's hash in the clear. Having said that, you should never reuse passwords, hashes can be cracked by iterating over known password lists, generating a hash of each.
### Logging In and Out
Once authentication is enabled, so long as there is no valid token in cookie storage, the application will redirect the user to the login page. When the user enters credentials in the login page, they will be checked, and if valid, then a token will be generated, and they can be redirected to the home page. If credentials are invalid, then an error message will be shown, and they will remain on the login page. Once in the application, to log out the user can click the logout button (in the top-right), which will clear cookie storage, causing them to be redirected back to the login page.
### Enabling Guest Access
With authentication setup, by default no access is allowed to your dashboard without first logging in with valid credentials. Guest mode can be enabled to allow for read-only access to a secured dashboard by any user, without the need to log in. A guest user cannot write any changes to the config file, but can apply modifications locally (stored in their browser). You can enable guest access, by setting `appConfig.auth.enableGuestAccess: true`.
### Granular Access
You can use the following properties to make certain sections or items only visible to some users, or hide sections and items from guests.
- `hideForUsers` - Section or Item will be visible to all users, except for those specified in this list
- `showForUsers` - Section or Item will be hidden from all users, except for those specified in this list
- `hideForGuests` - Section or Item will be visible for logged in users, but not for guests

To disable all UI config features, including View Config, set `disableConfiguration`.
### Security
With basic auth, all logic is happening on the client-side, which could mean a skilled user could manipulate the code to view parts of your configuration, including the hash. If the SHA-256 hash is of a common password, it may be possible to determine it, using a lookup table, in order to find the original password. Which can be used to manually generate the auth token, that can then be inserted into session storage, to become a valid logged in user. Therefore, you should always use a long, strong and unique password, and if you instance contains security-critical info and/ or is exposed directly to the internet, and alternative authentication method may be better. The purpose of the login page is merely to prevent immediate unauthorized access to your homepage.

### 2. Setup Keycloak Users
Before we can use Keycloak, we must first set it up with some users. Keycloak uses Realms (similar to tenants) to create isolated groups of users. You must create a Realm before you will be able to add your first user.
1. Head over to the admin console
2. In the top-left corner there is a dropdown called 'Master', hover over it and then click 'Add Realm'
3. Give your realm a name, and hit 'Create'
You can now create your first user.
1. In the left-hand menu, click 'Users', then 'Add User'
2. Fill in the form, including username and hit 'Save'
3. Under the 'Credentials' tab, give the new user an initial password. They will be prompted to change this after first login
The last thing we need to do in the Keycloak admin console is to create a new client
1. Within your new realm, navigate to 'Clients' on the left-hand side, then click 'Create' in the top-right
2. Choose a 'Client ID', set 'Client Protocol' to 'openid-connect', and for 'Valid Redirect URIs' put a URL pattern to where you're hosting Dashy (if you're just testing locally, then * is fine), and do the same for the 'Web Origins' field
3. Make note of your client-id, and click 'Save'
### 3. Enable Keycloak in Dashy Config File
Now that your Keycloak instance is up and running, all that's left to do is to configure Dashy to use it. Under `appConfig`, set `auth.enableKeycloak: true`, then fill in the details in `auth.keycloak`, including: `serverUrl` - the URL where your Keycloak instance is hosted, `realm` - the name you gave your Realm, and `clientId` - the Client ID you chose.

Note that if you are using Keycloak V 17 or older, you will also need to set `legacySupport: true` (also under `appConfig.auth.keycloak`). This is because the API endpoint was updated in later versions.
### 4. Add groups and roles (Optional)
Keycloak allows you to assign users roles and groups. You can use these values to configure who can access various sections or items in Dashy.
Keycloak server administration and configuration is a deep topic; please refer to the [server admin guide](https://www.keycloak.org/docs/latest/server_admin/index.html#assigning-permissions-and-access-using-roles-and-groups) to see details about creating and assigning roles and groups.
Once you have groups or roles assigned to users you can configure access under each section or item `displayData.showForKeycloakUser` and `displayData.hideForKeycloakUser`.
Both show and hide configurations accept a list of `groups` and `roles` that limit access. If a users data matches one or more items in these lists they will be allowed or excluded as defined.

For more information, see the [Authelia docs](https://www.authelia.com/docs/)
### VPN
A catch-all solution to accessing services running from your home network remotely is to use a VPN. It means you do not need to worry about implementing complex authentication rules, or trusting the login implementation of individual applications. However it can be inconvenient to use on a day-to-day basis, and some public and corporate WiFi block VPN connections. Two popular VPN protocols are [OpenVPN](https://openvpn.net/) and [WireGuard](https://www.wireguard.com/)
### IP-Based Access
If you have a static IP or use a VPN to access your running services, then you can use conditional access to block access to Dashy from everyone except users of your pre-defined IP address. This feature is offered by most cloud providers, and supported by most web servers.
##### Apache

In Apache, this is configured in your `.htaccess` file in Dashy's root folder, and should look something like:
```
```text
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from [your-ip]

#### NGINX
In NGINX you can specify [control access](https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/security-controls/controlling-access-proxied-http/) rules for a given site in your `nginx.conf` or hosts file. For example:

Most web servers make password protecting certain apps very easy. Note that you should also set up HTTPS and have a valid certificate in order for this to be secure.
##### Apache
#### Apache
First crate a `.htaccess` file in Dashy's route directory. Specify the auth type and path to where you want to store the password file (usually the same folder). For example:
```

Then create a `.htpasswd` file in the same directory. List users and their hashed passwords here, with one user on each line, and a colon between username and password (e.g. `[username]:[hashed-password]`). You will need to generate an MD5 hash of your desired password, this can be done with an [online tool](https://www.web2generators.com/apache-tools/htpasswd-generator). Your file will look something like:
```
```text

##### NGINX
#### NGINX
NGINX has an [authentication module](https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_auth_basic_module.html) which can be used to add passwords to given sites, and is fairly simple to set up. Similar to above, you will need to create a `.htpasswd` file. Then just enable auth and specify the path to that file, for example:
```
```text
location / {
auth_basic "closed site";
auth_basic_user_file conf/htpasswd;
}
```
##### Caddy
#### Caddy
Caddy has a [basic-auth](https://caddyserver.com/docs/caddyfile/directives/basicauth) directive, where you specify a username and hash. The password hash needs to be base-64 encoded, the [`caddy hash-password`](https://caddyserver.com/docs/command-line#caddy-hash-password) command can help with this. For example:
```
```text
basicauth /secret/* {

##### Lighttpd
#### Lighttpd
You can use the [mod_auth](https://doc.lighttpd.net/lighttpd2/mod_auth.html) module to secure your site with Lighttpd. Like with Apache, you need to first create a password file listing your usersnames and hashed passwords, but in Lighttpd, it's usually called `.lighttpdpassword`.
Then in your `lighttpd.conf` file (usually in the `/etc/lighttpd/` directory), load in the mod_auth module, and configure it's directives. For example:
```
```text
server.modules += ( "mod_auth" )

### OAuth Services
There are also authentication services, such as [Ory.sh](https://www.ory.sh/), [Okta](https://developer.okta.com/), [Auth0](https://auth0.com/), [Firebase](https://firebase.google.com/docs/auth/). Implementing one of these solutions would involve some changes to the [`Auth.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/Auth.js) file, but should be fairly straight forward.
### Static Site Hosting Providers
If you are hosting Dashy on a cloud platform, you will probably find that it has built-in support for password protected access to web apps. For more info, see the relevant docs for your provider, for example: [Netlify Password Protection](https://docs.netlify.com/visitor-access/password-protection/), [Cloudflare Access](https://www.cloudflare.com/teams/access/), [AWS Cognito](https://aws.amazon.com/cognito/), [Azure Authentication](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/scenario-secure-app-authentication-app-service) and [Vercel Password Protection](https://vercel.com/docs/platform/projects#password-protection).

<img src="https://i.ibb.co/p4pxSqX/dashy-backup-restore.png" width="600" />
</p>
### How it Works
## How it Works
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.
## Creating a Backup
### Creating a Backup
Once you've got Dashy configured to your preference, open the Backup & Restore menu (click the Cloud icon in the top-right corner). Here you will be prompted to choose a password, which will be used to encrypt your data. If you forget this password, there will be no way to recover your config. After clicking 'Backup' your data will be encrypted, compressed and sent to the hosted cloud service. A backup ID will be returned (in the format of xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx), this is what you use, along with your password to restore the backup on another system, so take note of it. To update a backup, return to this menu, enter your password, and click 'Update Backup'.
### Restoring a Backup
## Restoring a Backup
To restore a backup, navigate to the Backup & Restore menu, and under restore, enter your backup ID, and the password you chose. Your config file will be downloaded, decrypted and applied to local storage.

## Privacy & Security
Data is only ever sent to the cloud when the user actively triggers a backup. All transmitted data is first encrypted using [AES](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Encryption_Standard). Your selected password never leaves your device, and is hashed before being compared. It is only possible to restore a configuration if you have both the backup ID and decryption password.

### About YAML
If you're new to YAML, it's pretty straight-forward. The format is exactly the same as that of JSON, but instead of using curly braces, structure is denoted using whitespace. This [quick guide](https://linuxhandbook.com/yaml-basics/) should get you up to speed in a few minutes, for more advanced topics take a look at this [Wikipedia article](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML).
### Config Saving Methods
When updating the config through the JSON editor in the UI, you have two save options: **Local** or **Write to Disk**.
- Changes saved locally will only be applied to the current user through the browser, and will not apply to other instances - you either need to use the cloud sync feature, or manually update the conf.yml file.
- On the other-hand, if you choose to write changes to disk, then your main `conf.yml` file will be updated, and changes will be applied to all users, and visible across all devices. For this functionality to work, you must be running Dashy with using the Docker container, or the Node server. A backup of your current configuration will also be saved in the same directory.

## Add Translations
If you speak another language, then adding translations will help make Dashy available to non-native English speakers. This is a very quick and easy task, as all application text is located in [`locales/en.json`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/assets/locales/en.json), so adding a new language is as simple as copying this file and translating the values. You don't have to translate it all, as any missing attributes will just fallback to English. For a full tutorial, see the [Multi-Language Support Docs](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/docs/multi-language-support.md).
## Submit a PR
Contributing to the code or docs is super helpful. You can fix a bug, add a new feature or improve an existing one. If you've built your own custom widget, theme or view, consider sharing it in a PR. I've written [several guides](/docs/development-guides.md) to help you get started, and the steps for setting up the development environment are outlined in the [Development Docs](/docs/developing.md). Feel free to ask if you have any questions.
## Improve the Docs
Found a typo, or something that isn't as clear as it could be? Maybe I've missed something off altogether, or you hit a roadblock that took you a while to figure out. Submitting a pull request to add to or improve the documentation will help future users get Dashy up and running more easily.

### Core
At it's core, the application uses [**Vue.js**](https://github.com/vuejs/vue), as well as it's services with [**VueX**](https://vuex.vuejs.org/) for state management. Styling is done with [**SCSS**](https://github.com/sass/sass), JavaScript is currently [**Babel**](https://github.com/babel/babel), (but I am in the process of converting to [**TypeScript**](https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript)). Linting is done with [**ESLint**](https://github.com/eslint/eslint) and [**Prettier**](https://prettier.io/), both following the [**AirBnB Styleguide**](https://github.com/airbnb/javascript). The config is defined in [**YAML**](https://github.com/yaml/yaml), with a simple [**Node.js**](https://github.com/nodejs/node) server to serve up the static app and the optional API endpoints, and container deployment is done with [**Docker**](https://www.docker.com/).

Welcome to Dashy, so glad you're here :) Deployment is super easy, and there are several methods available depending on what type of system you're using. If you're self-hosting, then deploying with Docker (or similar container engine) is the recommended approach.
#### Quick Start
## Quick Start

- `-p` The port that should be exposed, and the port it should be mapped to in your host system `[host-port][container-port]`, leave the container port as is
- `-v` Specify volumes, to pass data from your host system to the container, in the format of `[host-path]:[container-path]`, you can use this to pass your config file, directory of assets (like icons), custom CSS or web assets (like favicon.ico, manifest.json etc)

The above Docker and NPM guides will work exactly the same on a VPS, but I've also setup some 1-Click deploy links for 10+ of the most common cloud providers, to make things easier. Note that if your instance is exposed to the internet, it will be your responsibility to adequately secure it.

**Note** If you use a static hosting provider, then status checks, writing new config changes to disk from the UI, and triggering a rebuild through the UI will not be availible. This is because these features need endpoints provided by Dashy's local Node server. Everything else should work just the same though.

Dashy works well on a Raspberry Pi (tested on Pi 3 and later), but should also run well on any system.
### Docker
Initial app build causes a spike in resource usage, but once the built app is running it is fairly steady. For this reason, Dashy works best with a minimum of 1GB of memory, and 1GB of disk space.
### Bare Metal
Minimum 526mb mem, 2GB disk space.
### CDN / Cloud Deploy
No specific requirements. The built application alone (without the Node server) is very light-weight, and can be handled smoothly by pretty much any CDN or cloud deployment service (see [this list](/docs/deployment.md#deploy-to-cloud-service) or natively supported cloud providers).
If you're using your own icons, or other assets, additional disk space will be required for those resources.

## Setting up the Dev Environment
### Prerequisites
You will need either the latest or LTS version of **[Node.js](https://nodejs.org/)** to build and serve the application and **[Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads)** to easily fetch the code, and push any changes. If you plan on running or deploying the container, you'll also need **[Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/)**. To avoid any unexpected issues, ensure you've got at least **[NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/get-npm)** V 7.5 or **[Yarn](https://classic.yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install/#windows-stable)** 1.22 (you may find [NVM](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm) helpful for switching/ managing versions).

Dashy should now be being served on <http://localhost:8080/>. Hot reload is enabled, so making changes to any of the files will trigger them to be rebuilt and the page refreshed.
### Project Commands
#### Basics
- **`yarn build`** - In the interest of speed, the application is pre-compiled, this means that the config file is read during build-time, and therefore the app needs to rebuilt for any new changes to take effect. Luckily this is very straight forward. Just run `yarn build` or `docker exec -it [container-id] yarn build`
- **`yarn start`** - Starts a web server, and serves up the production site from `./dist` (must run build command first)
#### Development
- **`yarn dev`** - Starts the development server with hot reloading
- **`yarn lint`** - Lints code to ensure it follows a consistent, neat style
- **`yarn test`** - Runs tests, and outputs results
#### Utils and Checks
- **`yarn validate-config`** - If you have quite a long configuration file, you may wish to check that it's all good to go, before deploying the app. This can be done with `yarn validate-config` or `docker exec -it [container-id] yarn validate-config`. Your config file needs to be in `/public/conf.yml` (or within your Docker container at `/app/public/conf.yml`). This will first check that your YAML is valid, and then validates it against Dashy's [schema](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/ConfigSchema.js).
- **`yarn health-check`** - Checks that the application is up and running on it's specified port, and outputs current status and response times. Useful for integrating into your monitoring service, if you need to maintain high system availability
#### Alternate Start Commands
- **`yarn build-and-start`** - Builds the app, runs checks and starts the production server. Commands are run in parallel, and so is faster than running them in independently. Uses the `yarn build` and `yarn start` commands
- **`yarn build-watch`** - If you find yourself making frequent changes to your configuration, and do not want to have to keep manually rebuilding, then this option is for you. It will watch for changes to any files within the projects root, and then trigger a rebuild. Note that if you are developing new features, then `yarn dev` would be more appropriate, as it's significantly faster at recompiling (under 1 second), and has hot reloading, linting and testing integrated
- **`yarn pm2-start`** - Starts the Node server using [PM2](https://pm2.keymetrics.io/), a process manager for Node.js applications, that helps them stay alive. PM2 has some built-in basic monitoring features, and an optional [management solution](https://pm2.io/). If you are running the app on bare metal, it is recommended to use this start command
#### Notes
- If you are using NPM, replace `yarn` with `npm run`
- If you are using Docker, precede each command with `docker exec -it [container-id]`. Container ID can be found by running `docker ps`
- You can manage the app using the [Vue-CLI Service](https://cli.vuejs.org/guide/cli-service.html), with `npx vue-cli-service [command]`. Or to start the Vue Management UI, run `npx vue ui`, and open `http://localhost:8000`
### Environmental Variables
All environmental variables are optional. Currently there are not many environmental variables used, as most of the user preferences are stored under `appConfig` in the `conf.yml` file.

You can run `yarn lint` to report and fix issues. While the dev server is running, issues will be reported to the console automatically, and any lint errors will trigger the build to fail. Note that all lint checks must pass before any PR can be merged. Linting is also run as a git pre-commit hook

You can use any [Font Awesome Icon](https://fontawesome.com/icons) simply by specifying it's identifier. This is in the format of `[category] [name]` and can be found on the page for that icon on the Font Awesome site. For example: `fas fa-rocket`, `fab fa-monero` or `fas fa-unicorn`.
Font-Awesome has a wide variety of free icons, but you can also use their pro icons if you have a membership. To do so, you need to specify your license key under: `appConfig.fontAwesomeKey`. This is usually a 10-digit string, for example `13014ae648`.

## Generative Icons
To uses a unique and programmatically generated icon for a given service just set `icon: generative`. This is particularly useful when you have a lot of similar services with a different IP or port, and no specific icon. These icons are generated with [DiceBear](https://avatars.dicebear.com/) (or [Evatar](https://evatar.io/) for fallback), and use a hash of the services domain/ ip for entropy, so each domain will have a unique icon.

## Emoji Icons
You can use almost any emoji as an icon for items or sections. You can specify the emoji either by pasting it directly, using it's unicode ( e.g. `'U+1F680'`) or shortcode (e.g. `':rocket:'`). You can find these codes for any emoji using [Emojipedia](https://emojipedia.org/) (near the bottom of emoji each page), or for a quick reference to emoji shortcodes, check out [emojis.ninja](https://emojis.ninja/) by @nomanoff.

## Icons by URL
You can also set an icon by passing in a valid URL pointing to the icons location. For example `icon: https://i.ibb.co/710B3Yc/space-invader-x256.png`, this can be in .png, .jpg or .svg format, and hosted anywhere (local or remote) - so long as it's accessible from where you are hosting Dashy. The icon will be automatically scaled to fit, however loading in a lot of large icons may have a negative impact on performance, especially if you visit Dashy from new devices often.
---
## Local Icons
You may also want to store your icons locally, bundled within Dashy so that there is no reliance on outside services. This can be done by putting the icons within Dashy's `./public/item-icons/` directory. If you are using Docker, then the easiest option is to map a volume from your host system, for example: `-v /local/image/directory:/app/public/item-icons/`. To reference an icon stored locally, just specify it's name and extension. For example, if my icon was stored in `/app/public/item-icons/maltrail.png`, then I would just set `icon: maltrail.png`.
You can also use sub-folders within the `item-icons` directory to keep things organized. You would then specify an icon with it's folder name slash image name. For example: `networking/monit.png`

## Providing Assets
Although not essential, you will most likely want to provide several assets to your running app.
This is easy to do using [Docker Volumes](https://docs.docker.com/storage/volumes/), which lets you share a file or directory between your host system, and the container. Volumes are specified in the Docker run command, or Docker compose file, using the `--volume` or `-v` flags. The value of which consists of the path to the file / directory on your host system, followed by the destination path within the container. Fields are separated by a colon (`:`), and must be in the correct order. For example: `-v ~/alicia/my-local-conf.yml:/app/public/conf.yml`
In Dashy, commonly configured resources include:
- `./public/conf.yml` - Your main application config file
- `./public/item-icons` - A directory containing your own icons. This allows for offline access, and better performance than fetching from a CDN
- Also within `./public` you'll find standard website assets, including `favicon.ico`, `manifest.json`, `robots.txt`, etc. There's no need to pass these in, but you can do so if you wish

## Running Commands
If you're running an app in Docker, then commands will need to be passed to the container to be executed. This can be done by preceding each command with `docker exec -it [container-id]`, where container ID can be found by running `docker ps`. For example `docker exec -it 26c156c467b4 yarn build`. You can also enter the container, with `docker exec -it [container-id] /bin/ash`, and navigate around it with normal Linux commands.

## Healthchecks
Healthchecks are configured to periodically check that Dashy is up and running correctly on the specified port. By default, the health script is called every 5 minutes, but this can be modified with the `--health-interval` option. You can check the current container health with: `docker inspect --format "{{json .State.Health }}" [container-id]`, and a summary of health status will show up under `docker ps`. You can also manually request the current application status by running `docker exec -it [container-id] yarn health-check`. You can disable healthchecks altogether by adding the `--no-healthcheck` flag to your Docker run command.
To restart unhealthy containers automatically, check out [Autoheal](https://hub.docker.com/r/willfarrell/autoheal/). This image watches for unhealthy containers, and automatically triggers a restart. (This is a stand in for Docker's `--exit-on-unhealthy` that was proposed, but [not merged](https://github.com/moby/moby/pull/22719)). There's also [Deunhealth](https://github.com/qdm12/deunhealth), which is super light-weight, and doesn't require network access.

## Logs and Performance
#### Container Logs
### Container Logs
You can view logs for a given Docker container with `docker logs [container-id]`, add the `--follow` flag to stream the logs. For more info, see the [Logging Documentation](https://docs.docker.com/config/containers/logging/). There's also [Dozzle](https://dozzle.dev/), a useful tool, that provides a web interface where you can stream and query logs from all your running containers from a single web app.
#### Container Performance
### Container Performance
You can check the resource usage for your running Docker containers with `docker stats` or `docker stats [container-id]`. For more info, see the [Stats Documentation](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/stats/). There's also [cAdvisor](https://github.com/google/cadvisor), a useful web app for viewing and analyzing resource usage and performance of all your running containers.
#### Management Apps
### Management Apps
You can also view logs, resource usage and other info as well as manage your entire Docker workflow in third-party Docker management apps. For example [Portainer](https://github.com/portainer/portainer) an all-in-one open source management web UI for Docker and Kubernetes, or [LazyDocker](https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazydocker) a terminal UI for Docker container management and monitoring.
#### Advanced Logging and Monitoring
### Advanced Logging and Monitoring
Docker supports using [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) to collect logs, which can then be visualized using a platform like [Grafana](https://grafana.com/). For more info, see [this guide](https://docs.docker.com/config/daemon/prometheus/). If you need to route your logs to a remote syslog, then consider using [logspout](https://github.com/gliderlabs/logspout). For enterprise-grade instances, there are managed services, that make monitoring container logs and metrics very easy, such as [Sematext](https://sematext.com/blog/docker-container-monitoring-with-sematext/) with [Logagent](https://github.com/sematext/logagent-js).

Using a VPN is one of the easiest ways to provide secure, full access to your local network from remote locations. [WireGuard](https://www.wireguard.com/) is a reasonably new open source VPN protocol, that was designed with ease of use, performance and security in mind. Unlike OpenVPN, it doesn't need to recreate the tunnel whenever connection is dropped, and it's also much easier to setup, using shared keys instead.
- **Install Wireguard** - See the [Install Docs](https://www.wireguard.com/install/) for download links + instructions
- On Debian-based systems, it's `sudo apt install wireguard`
- On Debian-based systems, it's `sudo apt install wireguard`
- **Generate a Private Key** - Run `wg genkey` on the Wireguard server, and copy it to somewhere safe for later
- **Create Server Config** - Open or create a file at `/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf` and under `[Interface]` add the following (see example below):
- `Address` - as a subnet of all desired IPs
- `PrivateKey` - that you just generated
- `ListenPort` - Default is `51820`, but can be anything
- `Address` - as a subnet of all desired IPs
- `PrivateKey` - that you just generated
- `ListenPort` - Default is `51820`, but can be anything
- **Get Client App** - Download the [WG client app](https://www.wireguard.com/install/) for your platform (Linux, Windows, MacOS, Android or iOS are all supported)
- **Create new Client Tunnel** - On your client app, there should be an option to create a new tunnel, when doing so a client private key will be generated (but if not, use the `wg genkey` command again), and keep it somewhere safe. A public key will also be generated, and this will go in our saver config
- **Add Clients to Server Config** - Head back to your `wg0.conf` file on the server, create a `[Peer]` section, and populate the following info
- `AllowedIPs` - List of IP address inside the subnet, the client should have access to
- `PublicKey` - The public key for the client you just generated
- `AllowedIPs` - List of IP address inside the subnet, the client should have access to
- `PublicKey` - The public key for the client you just generated
- **Start the Server** - You can now start the WG server, using: `wg-quick up wg0` on your server
- **Finish Client Setup** - Head back to your client device, and edit the config file, leave the private key as is, and add the following fields:
- `PublicKey` - The public key of the server
- `Address` - This should match the `AllowedIPs` section on the servers config file
- `DNS` - The DNS server that'll be used when accessing the network through the VPN
- `Endpoint` - The hostname or IP + Port where your WG server is running (you may need to forward this in your firewall's settings)
- `PublicKey` - The public key of the server
- `Address` - This should match the `AllowedIPs` section on the servers config file
- `DNS` - The DNS server that'll be used when accessing the network through the VPN
- `Endpoint` - The hostname or IP + Port where your WG server is running (you may need to forward this in your firewall's settings)
- **Done** - Your clients should now be able to connect to your WG server :) Depending on your networks firewall rules, you may need to port forward the address of your WG server

SSH (or [Secure Shell](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Shell)) is a secure tunnel that allows you to connect to a remote host.

### Keep Docker Up-To-Date
To prevent known container escape vulnerabilities, which typically end in escalating to root/administrator privileges, patching Docker Engine and Docker Machine is crucial. For more info, see the [Docker Installation Docs](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/).
### Set Resource Quotas
Docker enables you to limit resource consumption (CPU, memory, disk) on a per-container basis. This not only enhances system performance, but also prevents a compromised container from consuming a large amount of resources, in order to disrupt service or perform malicious activities. To learn more, see the [Resource Constraints Docs](https://docs.docker.com/config/containers/resource_constraints/)
For example, to run Dashy with max of 1GB ram, and max of 50% of 1 CP core:
`docker run -d -p 8080:80 --cpus=".5" --memory="1024m" lissy93/dashy:latest`
### Don't Run as Root
Running a container with admin privileges gives it more power than it needs, and can be abused. Dashy does not need any root privileges, and Docker by default doesn't run containers as root, so providing you don't specifically type sudo, you should be all good here.
Note that if you're facing permission issues on Debian-based systems, you may need to add your user to the Docker group. First create the group: `sudo groupadd docker`, then add your (non-root) user: `sudo usermod aG docker [my-username]`, finally `newgrp docker` to refresh.
### Specify a User
One of the best ways to prevent privilege escalation attacks, is to configure the container to use an unprivileged user. This also means that any files created by the container and mounted, will be owned by the specified user (and not root), which makes things much easier.
You can specify a user, using the [`--user` param](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#user), and should include the user ID (`UID`), which can be found by running `id -u`, and the and the group ID (`GID`), using `id -g`.
@ -612,7 +644,8 @@ services:
And then to set the variable, and start the container, run: `CURRENT_UID=$(id -u):$(id -g) docker-compose up`
### Limit capabilities
### Limit capabilities
Docker containers run with a subset of [Linux Kernal's Capabilities](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/capabilities.7.html) by default. It's good practice to drop privilege permissions that are not needed for any given container.
With Docker run, you can use the `--cap-drop` flag to remove capabilities, you can also use `--cap-drop=all` and then define just the required permissions using the `--cap-add` option. For a list of available capabilities, see the [Privilege Capabilities Docs](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#runtime-privilege-and-linux-capabilities).
@ -638,29 +671,35 @@ services:
```
### Prevent new Privilages being Added
To prevent processes inside the container from getting additional privileges, pass in the `--security-opt=no-new-privileges:true` option to the Docker run command (see [docs](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#security-configuration)).
Run Command:
`docker run --security-opt=no-new-privileges:true -p 8080:80 lissy93/dashy`
Docker Compose
```yaml
security_opt:
- no-new-privileges:true
```
### Disable Inter-Container Communication
By default Docker containers can talk to each other (using [`docker0` bridged network](https://docs.docker.com/config/containers/container-networking/)). If you don't need this capability, then it should be disabled. This can be done with the `--icc=false` in your run command. You can learn more about how to facilitate secure communication between containers in the [Compose Networking docs](https://docs.docker.com/compose/networking/).
### Don't Expose the Docker Daemon Socket
Docker socket `/var/run/docker.sock` is the UNIX socket that Docker is listening to. This is the primary entry point for the Docker API. The owner of this socket is root. Giving someone access to it is equivalent to giving unrestricted root access to your host.
You should **not** enable TCP Docker daemon socket (`-H tcp://0.0.0.0:XXX`), as doing so exposes un-encrypted and unauthenticated direct access to the Docker daemon, and if the host is connected to the internet, the daemon on your computer can be used by anyone from the public internet- which is bad. If you need TCP, you should [see the docs](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/dockerd/#daemon-socket-option) to understand how to do this more securely.
Similarly, never expose `/var/run/docker.sock` to other containers as a volume, as it can be exploited.
### Use Read-Only Volumes
You can specify that a specific volume should be read-only by appending `:ro` to the `-v` switch. For example, while running Dashy, if we want our config to be writable, but keep all other assets protected, we would do:
```
```bash
docker run -d \
-p 8080:80 \
-v ~/dashy-conf.yml:/app/public/conf.yml \
@ -672,17 +711,21 @@ docker run -d \
You can also prevent a container from writing any changes to volumes on your host's disk, using the `--read-only` flag. Although, for Dashy, you will not be able to write config changes to disk, when edited through the UI with this method. You could make this work, by specifying the config directory as a temp write location, with `--tmpfs /app/public/conf.yml` - but that this will not write the volume back to your host.
### Set the Logging Level
Logging is important, as it enables you to review events in the future, and in the case of a compromise this will let get an idea of what may have happened. The default log level is `INFO`, and this is also the recommendation, use `--log-level info` to ensure this is set.
### Verify Image before Pulling
Only use trusted images, from verified/ official sources. If an app is open source, it is more likely to be safe, as anyone can verify the code. There are also tools available for scanning containers,
Unless otherwise configured, containers can communicate among each other, so running one bad image may lead to other areas of your setup being compromised. Docker images typically contain both original code, as well as up-stream packages, and even if that image has come from a trusted source, the up-stream packages it includes may not have.
### Specify the Tag
Using fixed tags (as opposed to `:latest` ) will ensure immutability, meaning the base image will not change between builds. Note that for Dashy, the app is being actively developed, new features, bug fixes and general improvements are merged each week, and if you use a fixed version you will not enjoy these benefits. So it's up to you weather you would prefer a stable and reproducible environment, or the latest features and enhancements.
### Container Security Scanning
It's helpful to be aware of any potential security issues in any of the Docker images you are using. You can run a quick scan using Snyk on any image to output known vulnerabilities using [Docker scan](https://docs.docker.com/engine/scan/), e.g: `docker scan lissy93/dashy:latest`.
A similar product is [Trivy](https://github.com/aquasecurity/trivy), which is free an open source. First install it (with your package manager), then to scan an image, just run: `trivy image lissy93/dashy:latest`

For larger systems, RedHat [Clair](https://www.redhat.com/en/topics/containers/what-is-clair) is an app for parsing image contents and reporting on any found vulnerabilities. You run it locally in a container, and configure it with YAML. It can be integrated with Red Hat Quay, to show results on a dashboard. Most of these use static analysis to find potential issues, and scan included packages for any known security vulnerabilities.
### Registry Security
Although over-kill for most users, you could run your own registry locally which would give you ultimate control over all images, see the [Deploying a Registry Docs](https://docs.docker.com/registry/deploying/) for more info. Another option is [Docker Trusted Registry](https://docker-docs.netlify.app/ee/dtr/), it's great for enterprise applications, it sits behind your firewall, running on a swarm managed by Docker Universal Control Plane, and lets you securely store and manage your Docker images, mitigating the risk of breaches from the internet.
### Security Modules
Docker supports several modules that let you write your own security profiles.
[AppArmor](https://www.apparmor.net/)is a kernel module that proactively protects the operating system and applications from external or internal threats, by enabling you to restrict programs' capabilities with per-program profiles. You can specify either a security policy by name, or by file path with the `apparmor` flag in docker run. Learn more about writing profiles, [here](https://gitlab.com/apparmor/apparmor/-/wikis/QuickProfileLanguage).
[Seccomp](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seccomp) (Secure Computing Mode) is a sandboxing facility in the Linux kernel that acts like a firewall for system calls (syscalls). It uses Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF) rules to filter syscalls and control how they are handled. These filters can significantly limit a containers access to the Docker Host's Linux kernel - especially for simple containers/applications. It requires a Linux-based Docker host, with secomp enabled, and you can check for this by running `docker info | grep seccomp`. A great resource for learning more about this is [DockerLabs](https://training.play-with-docker.com/security-seccomp/).

### Icons
#### Font Awesome
If either any of your sections, items or themes are using icons from font-awesome, then it will be automatically enabled. But you can also manually enable or disable it by setting `appConfig.enableFontAwesome` to `true` / `false`. Requests are made directly to Font-Awesome CDN, for more info, see the [Font Awesome Privacy Policy](https://fontawesome.com/privacy).
#### Material Design Icons
If either any of your sections, items or themes are mdi icons, then it will be automatically enabled. But you can also manually enable or disable it by setting `appConfig.enableMaterialDesignIcons` to `true` / `false`. Requests are made directly to Material-Design-Icons CDN, for more info, see the [Material Design Icons Website](https://materialdesignicons.com/).
#### Favicon Fetching
If an item's icon is set to `favicon`, then it will be auto-fetched from the corresponding URL. Since not all websites have their icon located at `/favicon.ico`, and if they do, it's often very low resolution (like `16 x 16 px`). Therefore, the default behavior is for Dashy to check if the URL is public, and if so will use an API to fetch the favicon. For self-hosted services, the favion will be fetched from the default path, and no external requests will be made.
The default favicon API is [allesedv.com](https://favicon.allesedv.com/), but this can be changed by setting `appConfig.faviconApi` to an alternate source (`iconhorse`, `clearbit`, `faviconkit`, `besticon`, `duckduckgo`, `google` and `allesedv` are supported). If you do not want to use any API, then you can set this property to `local`, and the favicon will be fetched from the default path. For hosted services, this will still incur an external request.
#### Generative Icons
If an item has the icon set to `generative`, then an external request it made to [Dice Bear](https://dicebear.com/) to fetch the uniquely generated icon. The URL of a given service is used as the key for generating the icon, but it is first hashed and encoded for basic privacy. For more info, please reference the [Dicebear Privacy Policy](https://avatars.dicebear.com/legal/privacy-policy)
As a fallback, if Dicebear fails, then [Evatar](https://evatar.io/) is used.
#### Other Icons
Section icons, item icons and app icons are able to accept a URL to a raw image, if the image is hosted online then an external request will be made. To avoid the need to make external requests for icon assets, you can either use a self-hosted CDN, or store your images within `./public/item-icons` (which can be mounted as a volume if you're using Docker).
#### Web Assets
By default, all assets required by Dashy come bundled within the source, and so no external requests are made. If you add an additional font, which is imported from a CDN, then that will incur an external request. The same applies for other web assets, like external images, scripts or styles.

### Features
#### Status Checking
The status checking feature allows you to ping your apps/ services to check if they are currently operational.
Dashy will ping your services directly, and does not rely on any third party. If you are checking the uptime status of a public/ hosted application, then please refer to that services privacy policy. For all self-hosted services, requests happen locally within your network, and are not external.
#### Update Checks
When the application loads, it checks for updates. The results of which are displayed in the config menu of the UI. This was implemented because using a very outdated version of Dashy may have unfixed issues. Your version is fetched from the source (local request), but the latest version is fetched from GitHub, which is an external request. This can be disabled by setting `appConfig.disableUpdateChecks: true`
#### Cloud Backup

## Browser Storage
In order for user preferences to be persisted between sessions, certain data needs to be stored in the browsers local storage. No personal info is kept here, none of this data can be accessed by other domains, and no data is ever sent to any server without your prior consent.
You can view and delete stored data by opening up the dev tools: <kbd>F12</kbd> --> `Application` --> `Storage`.
The following section outlines all data that is stored in the browsers, as cookies, session storage or local storage.
#### Cookies
### Cookies
> [Cookies](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_cookie) will expire after their pre-defined lifetime
- `AUTH_TOKEN` - A unique token, generated from a hash of users credentials, to verify they are authenticated. Only used when auth is enabled.
#### Session Storage
### Session Storage
> [Session storage](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/sessionStorage) is deleted when the current session ends (tab / window is closed)
- `SW_STATUS` - The current status of any service workers
- `ERROR_LOG` - List of recent errors
#### Local Storage

#### Deleting Stored Data
### Deleting Stored Data
You can manually view and delete session storage, local storage and cookies at anytime. Fist [open](/docs/troubleshooting.md#how-to-open-browser-console) your browsers developer tools (usually <kbd>F12</kbd>), then under the Application tab select the storage category. Here you will see a list of stored data, and you can select any item and delete it.

## Dependencies
As with most web projects, Dashy relies on several [dependencies](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/docs/credits.md#dependencies-). For links to each, and a breakdown of their licenses, please see [Legal](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/.github/LEGAL.md).
Dependencies can introduce security vulnerabilities, but since all these packages are open source any issues are usually very quickly spotted. Dashy is using Snyk for dependency security monitoring, and you can see [the latest report here](https://snyk.io/test/github/lissy93/dashy). If any issue is detected by Snyk, a note about it will appear at the top of the Reamde, and will usually be fixed within 48 hours.

## Securing your Environment
Running your self-hosted applications in individual, containerized environments (such as containers or VMs) helps keep them isolated, and prevent an exploit in one service effecting another.
If you're running Dashy in a container, see [Management Docs --> Container Security](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/docs/management.md#container-security) for step-by-step security guide.
There is very little complexity involved with Dashy, and therefore the attack surface is reasonably small, but it is still important to follow best practices and employ monitoring for all your self-hosted apps. A couple of things that you should look at include:
- Use SSL for securing traffic in transit
- Configure [authentication](/docs/authentication.md#alternative-authentication-methods) to prevent unauthorized access
- Keep your system, software and Dashy up-to-date
@ -228,21 +248,26 @@ This is covered in more detail in [App Management](/docs/management.md).
## Security Features
#### Subresource Integrity
### Subresource Integrity
[Subresource Integrity](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Subresource_Integrity) or SRI is a security feature that enables browsers to verify that resources they fetch are delivered without unexpected manipulation. It works by allowing you to provide a cryptographic hash that a fetched resource must match. This prevents the app from loading any resources that have been manipulated, by verifying the files hashes. It safeguards against the risk of an attacker injecting arbitrary malicious content into any files served up via a CDN.
Dashy supports SRI, and it is recommended to enable this if you are hosting your dashboard via a public CDN. To enable SRI, set the `INTEGRITY` environmental variable to `true`.
#### SSL
### SSL
Native SSL support is enabled, for setup instructions, see the [Management Docs](/docs/management.md#ssl-certificates)
#### Authentication
### Authentication
Dashy supports both basic auth, as well as server-based SSO using Keycloak. Full details of which, along with alternate authentication methods can be found in the [Authentication Docs](/docs/authentication.md). If your dashboard is exposed to the internet and/ or contains any sensitive info it is strongly recommended to configure access control with Keycloak or another server-side method.

You may wish to disable features that you don't want to use, if they involve storing data in the browser or making network requests.
- To disable smart-sort (uses local storage), set `appConfig.disableSmartSort: true`
- To disable update checks (makes external request to GH), set `appConfig.disableUpdateChecks: true`

# Keyboard Shortcuts
## Searching
One of the primary purposes of Dashy is to allow you to quickly find and launch a given app. To make this as quick as possible, there is no need to touch the mouse, or press a certain key to begin searching - just start typing. Results will be filtered in real-time. No need to worry about case, special characters or small typos, these are taken care of, and your results should appear.
## Navigating
You can navigate through your items or search results using the keyboard. You can use <kbd>Tab</kbd> to cycle through results, and <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>Tab</kbd> to go backwards. Or use the arrow keys, <kbd></kbd>, <kbd></kbd>, <kbd></kbd> and <kbd></kbd>.
## Launching Apps
You can launch a elected app by hitting <kbd>Enter</kbd>. This will open the app using your default opening method, specified in `target` (either `newtab`, `sametab`, `modal`, `top` or `workspace`). You can also use <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Enter</kbd> to open the app in a pop-up modal, or <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>Enter</kbd> to open it in a new tab. For all available opening methods, just right-click on an item, to bring up the context menu.
## Tags
By default, items are filtered by the `title` attribute, as well as the hostname (extracted from `url`), the `provider` and `description`. If you need to find results based on text which isn't included in these attributes, then you can add `tags` to a given item.
```yaml

In the above example, Plex will be visible when searching for 'movies', and FreshRSS with 'news'
## Custom Hotkeys
For apps that you use regularly, you can set a custom keybinding. Use the `hotkey` parameter on a certain item to specify a numeric key, between `0 - 9`. You can then launch that app, by just pressing that key, which is much quicker than searching for it, if it's an app you use frequently.

In the above example, pressing <kbd>2</kbd> will launch Bookstack. Or hitting <kbd>3</kbd> will open Git in the workspace view.
## Web Search
It's possible to search the web directly from Dashy, which might be useful if you're using Dashy as your start page. This can be done by typing your query as normal, and then pressing <kbd></kbd>. Web search options are configured under `appConfig.webSearch`.
### Setting Search Engine
Set your default search engine using the `webSearch.searchEngine` property. This defaults to DuckDuckGo. Search engine must be referenced by their key, the following providers are supported:
- [`duckduckgo`](https://duckduckgo.com), [`google`](https://google.com), [`whoogle`](https://whoogle.sdf.org), [`qwant`](https://www.qwant.com), [`startpage`](https://www.startpage.com), [`searx-bar`](https://searx.bar), [`searx-info`](https://searx.info)

### Using Custom Search Engine
You can also use a custom search engine, that isn't included in the above list (like a self-hosted instance of [Whoogle](https://github.com/benbusby/whoogle-search) or [Searx](https://searx.github.io/searx/)). Set `searchEngine: custom`, and then specify the URL (plus query params) to you're search engine under `customSearchEngine`.

### Setting Opening Method
In a similar way to opening apps, you can specify where you would like search results to be opened. This is done under the `openingMethod` attribute, and can be set to either `newtab`, `sametab` or `workspace`. By default results are opened in a new tab.
### Using Bangs
An insanely useful feature of DDG is [Bangs](https://duckduckgo.com/bang), where you type a specific character combination at the start of your search query, and it will be redirected the that website, such as '!w Docker' will display the Docker wikipedia page. Dashy has a similar feature, enabling you to define your own custom bangs to redirect search results to a specific app, website or search engine.
This is done under the `searchBangs` property, with a list of key value pairs. The key is what you will type, and the value is the destination, either as an identifier or a URL with query parameters.

## Enabling Status Indicators
By default, this feature is off. If you do not want this feature, just don't add the `statusCheck` to your conf.yml file, then no requests will be made.
To enable status checks, you can either turn it on for all items, by setting `appConfig.statusCheck: true`, like:
```yaml
appConfig:
statusCheck: true
```
Or you can enable/ disable it on a per-item basis, with the `item[n].statusCheck` attribute

```
## Continuous Checking
By default, with status indicators enabled Dashy will check an applications status on page load, and will not keep indicators updated. This is usually desirable behavior. However, if you do want the status indicators to continue to poll your running services, this can be enabled by setting the `statusCheckInterval` attribute. Here you define an interval as an integer in seconds, and Dashy will poll your apps every x seconds. Note that if this number is very low (below 5 seconds), you may notice the app running slightly slower.
The following example, will instruct Dashy to continuously check the status of your services every 20 seconds.
```
```text
appConfig:
statusCheck: true
statusCheckInterval: 20
```
## Using a Different Endpoint
By default, the status checker will use the URL of each application being checked. In some situations, you may want to use a different endpoint for status checking. Similarly, some services provide a dedicated path for uptime monitoring.
You can set the `statusCheckUrl` property on any given item in order to do this. The status checker will then ping that endpoint, instead of the apps main `url` property.
## Setting Custom Headers
If your service is responding with an error, despite being up and running, it is most likely because custom headers for authentication, authorization or encoding are required. You can define these headers under the `statusCheckHeaders` property for any service. It should be defined as an object format, with the name of header as the key, and header content as the value.
For example, `statusCheckHeaders: { 'X-Custom-Header': 'foobar' }`
## Disabling Security
By default, (if you're using HTTPS) any requests to insecure or non-HTTPS content will be blocked. This will cause the status check to fail. If you trust the endpoint (e.g. you're self-hosting it), then you can disable this security measure for an individual item. This is done by setting `statusCheckAllowInsecure: true`
## Allowing Alternative Status Codes
If you expect your service to return a status code that is not in the 2XX range, and still want the indicator to be green, then you can specify an expected status code under `statusCheckAcceptCodes` for a given item. For example, `statusCheckAcceptCodes: '403,418'`
## Troubleshooting Failing Status Checks
If you're using status checks, and despite a given service being online, the check is displaying an error, there are a couple of things you can look at:
If your service requires requests to include any authorization in the headers, then use the `statusCheckHeaders` property, as described [above](#setting-custom-headers).
If you are still having issues, it may be because your target application is blocking requests from Dashy's IP. This is a [CORS error](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS), and can be fixed by setting the headers on your target app, to include:
```
```text
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://location-of-dashy/
Vary: Origin
```
If the URL you are checking has an unsigned certificate, or is not using HTTPS, then you may need to disable the rejection of insecure requests. This can be done by setting `statusCheckAllowInsecure` to true for a given item.
If your service is online, but responds with a status code that is not in the 2xx range, then you can use `statusCheckAcceptCodes` to set an accepted status code.

### How Theme-Switching Works
## How Theme-Switching Works
The theme switching is done by simply changing the `data-theme` attribute on the root DOM element, which can then be targeted by CSS. First off, in order for the theme to show up in the theme switcher, it needs to be added to the config file, under `appConfig.cssThemes`, either as a string, or an array of strings for multiple themes.

### Adding your own Theme
## Adding your own Theme
User-defined styles and custom themes should be defined in `./src/styles/user-defined-themes.scss`. If you're using Docker, you can pass your own stylesheet in using the `--volume` flag. E.g. `v ./my-themes.scss:/app/src/styles/user-defined-themes.scss`. Don't forget to pass your theme name into `appConfig.cssThemes` so that it shows up on the theme-switcher dropdown.
### Setting Custom CSS in the UI
## Setting Custom CSS in the UI
Custom CSS can be developed, tested and applied directly through the UI. Although you will need to make note of your changes to apply them across instances.
This can be done from the Config menu (spanner icon in the top-right), under the Custom Styles tab. This is then associated with `appConfig.customCss` in local storage. Styles can also be directly applied to this attribute in the config file, but this may get messy very quickly if you have a lot of CSS.
### Page-Specific Styles
## Page-Specific Styles
If you've got multiple pages within your dashboard, you can choose to target certain styles to specific pages. The top-most element within `<body>` will have a class name specific to the current sub-page. This is usually the page's name, all lowercase, with dashes instead of spaces, but you can easily check this yourself within the dev tools.

### Loading External Stylesheets
## Loading External Stylesheets
The URI of a stylesheet, either local or hosted on a remote CDN can be passed into the config file. The attribute `appConfig.externalStyleSheet` accepts either a string, or an array of strings. You can also pass custom font stylesheets here, they must be in a CSS format (for example, `https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Cutive+Mono`).

### Hard-Coding Section or Item Colors
## Hard-Coding Section or Item Colors
Some UI components have a color option, that can be set in the config file, to force the color of a given item or section no matter what theme is selected. These colors should be expressed as hex codes (e.g. `#fff`) or HTML colors (e.g. `red`). The following attributes are supported:
- `section.color` - Custom color for a given section
- `item.color` - Font and icon color for a given item
- `item.backgroundColor` - Background color for a given icon
### Typography
## Typography
Essential fonts bundled within the app are located within `./src/assets/fonts/`. All optional fonts that are used by themes are stored in `./public/fonts/`, if you want to add your own font, this is where you should put it. As with assets, if you're using Docker then using a volume to link a directory on your host system with this path within the container will make management much easier.

## CSS Variables
All colors as well as other variable values (such as borders, border-radius, shadows) are specified as CSS variables. This makes theming the application easy, as you only need to change a given color or value in one place.

In the CSS panel you will see all styles assigned to that given element, including CSS variables.

- `sudo apt remove yarn`

- `echo "deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yarn.list`

You have reached your pull rate limit. You may increase the limit by authenticating and upgrading: https://www.docker.com/increase-rate-limit
```
When DockerHub returns one of these errors, or a `429` status, that means you've hit your rate limit. This was [introduced](https://www.docker.com/blog/scaling-docker-to-serve-millions-more-developers-network-egress/) last year, and prevents unauthenticated or free users from running docker pull more than 100 times per 6 hours.
You can [check your rate limit status](https://www.docker.com/blog/checking-your-current-docker-pull-rate-limits-and-status/) by looking for the `ratelimit-remaining` header in any DockerHub responses.
#### Solution 1 - Use an alternate container registry
### Solution 1 - Use an alternate container registry
- Dashy is also availible through GHCR, which at present does not have any hard limits. Just use `docker pull ghcr.io/lissy93/dashy:latest` to fetch the image
- You can also build the image from source, by cloning the repo, and running `docker build -t dashy .` or use the pre-made docker compose
#### Solution 2 - Increase your rate limits
### Solution 2 - Increase your rate limits
- Logging in to DockerHub will increase your rate limit from 100 requests to 200 requests per 6 hour period
- Upgrading to a Pro for $5/month will increase your image requests to 5,000 per day, and any plans above have no rate limits
- Since rate limits are counted based on your IP address, proxying your requests, or using a VPN may work

## Config Validation Errors
The configuration file is validated against [Dashy's Schema](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/ConfigSchema.json) using AJV.
First, check that your syntax is valid, using [YAML Validator](https://codebeautify.org/yaml-validator/) or [JSON Validator](https://codebeautify.org/jsonvalidator). If the issue persists, then take a look at the [schema](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/ConfigSchema.json), and verify that the field you are trying to add/ modify matches the required format. You can also use [this tool](https://www.jsonschemavalidator.net/s/JFUj7X9J) to validate your JSON config against the schema, or run `yarn validate-config`.

## Warnings in the Console during deploy
Please acknowledge the difference between errors and warnings before raising an issue about messages in the console. It's not unusual to see warnings about a new version of a certain package being available, an asset bundle bing oversized or a service worker not yet having a cache. These shouldn't have any impact on the running application, so please don't raise issues about these unless it directly relates to a bug or issue you're experiencing. Errors on the other hand should not appear in the console, and they are worth looking into further.

## Status Checks Failing
If you're using status checks, and despite a given service being online, the check is displaying an error, there are a couple of things you can look at:
If your service requires requests to include any authorization in the headers, then use the `statusCheckHeaders` property, as described in the [docs](/docs/status-indicators.md#setting-custom-headers).
If you are still having issues, it may be because your target application is blocking requests from Dashy's IP. This is a [CORS error](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS), and can be fixed by setting the headers on your target app, to include:
```
```text
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://location-of-dashy/
Vary: Origin
```
If the URL you are checking has an unsigned certificate, or is not using HTTPS, then you may need to disable the rejection of insecure requests. This can be done by setting `statusCheckAllowInsecure` to true for a given item.
If your service is online, but responds with a status code that is not in the 2xx range, then you can use `statusCheckAcceptCodes` to set an accepted status code.

## Widget Errors
#### Find Error Message
### Find Error Message
If an error occurs when fetching or rendering results, you will see a short message in the UI. If that message doesn't addequatley explain the problem, then you can [open the browser console](/docs/troubleshooting.md#how-to-open-browser-console) to see more details.
#### Check Config
### Check Config
Before proceeding, ensure that if the widget requires auth your API is correct, and for custom widgets, double check that the URL and protocol is correct.
#### Timeout Error
### Timeout Error
If the error message in the console includes: `Error: timeout of 500ms exceeded`, then your Glances endpoint is slower to respond than expected. You can fix this by [setting timeout](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/docs/widgets.md#setting-timeout) to a larger value. This is done on each widget, with the `timeout` attribute, and is specified in ms. E.g. `timeout: 5000` would only fail if no response is returned within 5 seconds.
#### CORS error
### CORS error
If the console message mentions to corss-origin blocking, then this is a CORS error, see: [Fixing Widget CORS Errors](#widget-cors-errors)
#### More Info
### More Info
If you're able to, you can find more information about why the request may be failing in the Dev Tools under the Network tab, and you can ensure your endpoint is correct and working using a tool like Postman.

There are several ways to fix a CORS error:
#### Option 1 - Ensure Correct Protocol
### Option 1 - Ensure Correct Protocol
You will get a CORS error if you try and access a http service from a https source. So ensure that the URL you are requesting has the right protocol, and is correctly formatted.
#### Option 2 - Set Headers
### Option 2 - Set Headers
If you have control over the destination (e.g. for a self-hosted service), then you can simply apply the correct headers.
Add the `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` header, with the value of either `*` to allow requests from anywhere, or more securely, the host of where Dashy is served from. For example:
```
```text
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://url-of-dashy.local
```
or
```
```text
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
```
For more info on how to set headers, see: [Setting Headers](/docs/management.md#setting-headers) in the management docs
#### Option 3 - Proxying Request
### Option 3 - Proxying Request
You can route requests through Dashy's built-in CORS proxy. Instructions and more details can be found [here](/docs/widgets.md#proxying-requests). If you don't have control over the target origin, and you are running Dashy either through Docker, with the Node server or on Netlify, then this solution will work for you.
Just add the `useProxy: true` option to the failing widget.
#### Option 4 - Use a plugin
### Option 4 - Use a plugin
For testing purposes, you can use an addon, which will disable the CORS checks. You can get the Allow-CORS extension for [Chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/allow-cors-access-control/lhobafahddgcelffkeicbaginigeejlf?hl=en-US) or [Firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/access-control-allow-origin/), more details [here](https://mybrowseraddon.com/access-control-allow-origin.html)
