Question 1

How do I set up Hubleys with Authelia?

Accepted Answer

Follow the Caddy or Nginx configuration examples in the README, which show how to forward auth headers like Remote-User and Remote-Groups to Hubleys for user identification. Ensure your auth provider is correctly configured to set these headers.

Question 2

Hubleys vs Heimdall: which is better for multi-user access control?

Accepted Answer

Hubleys is designed for permission-based dashboards with group management via forward auth, ideal for teams. Heimdall focuses on single-user or shared dashboards without built-in multi-user permissions, so Hubleys is superior for granular access control.

Question 3

How to add custom background images in Hubleys?

Accepted Answer

Place images in the /data/wallpaper folder for a collection, or use the Unsplash API. User-uploaded images are stored in /data/users/backgrounds/, as outlined in the persistent file structure.

Question 4

Does Hubleys support single sign-on (SSO)?

Accepted Answer

Indirectly, through forward authentication integration with providers like Authelia that can handle SSO. Hubleys itself doesn't have native SSO features but relies on headers from the auth system.

Question 5

Can I run Hubleys without Docker?

Accepted Answer

The README only provides Docker-based setup; running without Docker would require manual configuration of the Node.js environment, which isn't documented and could be error-prone for non-containerized deployments.

Question 6

How to change the dashboard layout in Hubleys?

Accepted Answer

Layout is controlled via config.yml, where admins define folders and tiles in YAML. There's no drag-and-drop interface, so changes require editing the configuration file and restarting the application.
