# NexaDash
|
|
|
|
NexaDash is a modern, self-hosted, plugin-based dashboard for Homelab, server and infrastructure services. It connects to Proxmox, AdGuard Home, Jellyfin, Home Assistant, authentik, Beszel and many more through a secure, extensible plugin system — all configurable from the web UI, no CLI required.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- **Plugin-based architecture**: Add services as plugins via the UI or ZIP upload.
|
|
- **Modern UI**: Next.js, Tailwind CSS, shadcn/ui, dark mode first, glassmorphism design.
|
|
- **Secure by default**: Argon2id, JWT sessions, RBAC, encrypted secrets, audit log, SSRF protection, security headers.
|
|
- **Dashboard editor**: Drag & drop, resize, multiple breakpoints, favorites, folders, import/export.
|
|
- **Multi-user**: Owner, Admin, Editor, Viewer roles with permission system.
|
|
- **Background workers**: Celery for plugin syncs and scheduled jobs.
|
|
- **Live updates**: WebSocket/SSE support and auto-refresh.
|
|
- **Mail settings**: SMTP configuration via UI for invitations and password resets.
|
|
- **Backup/restore**: Database dumps and restore documentation included.
|
|
|
|
## Quick Start
|
|
|
|
Requires Docker and Docker Compose.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# 1. Clone the repository
|
|
git clone https://github.com/nexadash/nexadash.git
|
|
cd nexadash
|
|
|
|
# 2. Configure environment
|
|
cp .env.example .env
|
|
# Edit .env and set strong passwords
|
|
|
|
# 3. Start the stack
|
|
docker compose up -d
|
|
|
|
# 4. Open the UI
|
|
open http://localhost:3000
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The initial setup wizard appears on first launch. Create the owner account, then add services from the plugin registry.

|
## Plugin System
|
|
|
|
NexaDash plugins are declarative packages consisting of:
|
|
|
|
- `plugin.manifest.json` — metadata, schemas, widgets, permissions.
|
|
- Backend connector — either a built-in connector or a registered Python class.
|
|
- Optional frontend widget components.
|
|
|
|
Plugins are installed, activated, configured and updated entirely from the web UI. Built-in plugins include:
|
|
|
|
- Proxmox VE
|
|
- Proxmox Backup Server
|
|
- AdGuard Home
|
|
- Zoraxy
|
|
- Jellyfin
|
|
- Home Assistant
|
|
- authentik
|
|
- Beszel
|
|
- Generic HTTP
|
|
|
|
See `docs/plugins/README.md` for the full developer guide.
|
|
|
|
## Security
|
|
|
|
- Passwords hashed with Argon2id.
|
|
- JWT access + refresh tokens in HTTP-only cookies.
|
|
- Service credentials encrypted at rest with Fernet.
|
|
- RBAC with Owner/Admin/Editor/Viewer.
|
|
- Audit log for all critical actions.
|
|
- SSRF protection for outbound service URLs.
|
|
- Rate limiting and account lockout.
|
|
- Security headers on all API responses.
|
|
- No secrets exposed to the frontend.
|
|
|
|
See `docs/security/README.md` for details.
|
|
|
|
## Backup and Restore
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Backup
|
|
docker compose exec postgres pg_dump -U nexadash nexadash > nexadash-backup.sql
|
|
|
|
# Restore
|
|
docker compose exec -T postgres psql -U nexadash nexadash < nexadash-backup.sql
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Important volumes: `postgres_data`, `redis_data`, `plugin_data`.
|
|
|
|
## Update
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git pull
|
|
docker compose build
|
|
docker compose up -d
