Organizr¶

Description / nameInput element
Your domain name

Overview¶

Organizr is a free, open-source, web-based dashboard designed to organize and manage multiple server services, particularly for home theater PCs (HTPCs) and homelabs.


Deployment¶

sb install organizr

Usage¶

Visit https://organizr.iYOUR_DOMAIN_NAMEi.

Basics¶

Initial Setup¶

  1. The first time you go to the Organizr page, you will be presented with Install Type, Admin Info, Security, Database and Verify sections. In the Install Type section select Personal

    Main Setup-Install-Type

  2. In the Admin Info section enter your details such as the preferred password to log in and personal email. Note: it is suggested to enter your plex username and password

    Main Setup-Admin-Info

  3. In the Security section enter your fill in the Hash Key and Registration Password any type of password will do but if you want a secure one then follow these steps;

  4. First for the Hash Key you can head over to Base64 Encode and convert a string to Base64. Keep in mind the Hash Key can be anywhere between 3 to 30 which mean you can enter string up to 21 characters in Base64

  5. For the password just use any strong password you prefer, if you want a strong one then Password Generator, there is no limit on the password section go crazy ;)

  6. The API key should be auto-generated so no need to worry about this if the API key is throwing an error such as shorter than it suppose to be or longer it's most likely due to the web browser auto-fill, make sure it's disabled or just use another browser that doesn't have auto-fill or you don't use much e.g Internet Explorer 👀.

    You should have something like this:

Main Setup-Admin-Info

  1. In the Database section enter your preferred database name (there is 30 character limit), then after that for the "Database Location" set it as /config/www then click test path it should be a success.

    You should have something like this:

Main Setup-Database

  1. In the Verify section you will just need to confirm everything but feel free to take note of your API key and save it somewhere safe. After clicking finish you will be taken to a log in the page just enter the username and password you have inserted in the Admin info section.

    You should have something like this:

Main Setup-Database

Settings¶

  1. You will now be taken to the main Organizr Page and asked to login with the credentials you created in the previous steps.

    Organizr

Tabs¶

  1. Click "Settings" on the left menu, to be taken to the "Organizr Settings" page.

    Settings Tab Tabs Editor

  2. Things to note on this page, the Homepage is disabled by default and note the "Type" is set to "Internal". Your normal Apps with Saltbox will all need to have a Type: "iFrame" unless you have a particular app you wish to open in another window which is also a Type option. Go ahead and click "+ on the right". You will be prompted for information regarding the tab.

  3. Before hitting the Edit Tab button in the bottom right, please hit the "Test Tab" button, sometimes the Tab will check for you if iFrame is possible. This will test if the information you inputted can be open in an iFrame. Which is the secret sauce in Organizr's tabbed browsing.

    New Tab

  4. You will need to create multiple tabs with the information below. These are merely a suggestion and examples to get you up and going. Any changes made, won't be reflected until Organizr is reloaded. You can also drag and drop to change the order of the apps (don't forget to reload)

  5. Note: If Sonarr or Radarr are lagging a lot, you may set it to a specific page in each. (e.g. Sonarr: https://sonarr.iYOUR_DOMAIN_NAMEi/calendar ; Radarr: https://radarr.iYOUR_DOMAIN_NAMEi/activity/history)

Homepage (Make you have Homepage ACTIVE in Tabs section)¶

  1. Click "Homepage Items" under the Tab Editor section, to be taken to the "Homepage Items" page.

    Edit Homepage

    • On the Connections Tab, Set "Sonarr URL": http://sonarr:8989

    • Set "Sonarr API Key": [Your Sonarr API Key|Install: Sonarr#9-retrieving-the-api-key]

    • Go over any other Miscellaneous Options on the next Tab and set your preferences.

    • Click "SAVE".

  4. Click the Radarr icon at the top.

    • Enable it.

    • Set "Radarr URL": http://radarr:7878

    • Set "Radarr API Key": [Your Radarr API Key|Install: Radarr#9-retrieving-the-api-key]

    • Go over any other Miscellaneous Options on the next Tab and set your preferences.

    • Click "SAVE".

  5. Click the NZBGet icon at the top.

    • Enable it.

    • Set "NZBGet URL": http://nzbget:6789

    • For "Username" / "Password": fill in your NZBGet login (see [NZBGet|Install: NZBGet#2-setup])

    • Click "SAVE".

Homepage Order¶

  1. This is where you organize the apps and other items and how they will appear on your Homepage. There's no right or wrong order so simply move things around and find out what works for you.

    Homepage Order

Any additional question please reach out to the Organizr team, either via their Discord Server or their subreddit

Are you setting Saltbox up for the first time?

You're ready to explore Saltbox! You can start checking out community apps if you wish.

Role Defaults¶

Variables can be customized using the Inventory. (1)

  1. Example override

    organizr_name: "custom_value"
    

    Avoid overriding variables ending in _default

    When overriding variables that end in _default (like organizr_docker_envs_default), you replace the entire default configuration. Future updates that add new default values will not be applied to your setup, potentially breaking functionality.

    Instead, use the corresponding _custom variable (like organizr_docker_envs_custom) to add your changes. Custom values are merged with defaults, ensuring you receive updates.
