A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

And I just made an HTTP endpoint in golang that outputs PNG labels with small QRs just as I need them, to print out on my Bluetooth label printer.

How did you manage to make it lookup by inventory id? Normally it puts the whole uid in there which is much to big for the QR. Can you use Homebox qr search feature with your proxy?

Homebox supports the https://<hostname>/a/<inventory_id> shorthand and does a 302 jump for you. Otherwise yes, I would have implemented the API search in a microservice.
