Deploying AMUD Dashboard Through Portainer (For Clickers Not SSHers)

Stack template, matching AMUD_AGENT_SECRET, Docker socket mount. GUI homelab crowd deserves dashboards too.

By Youssef Boubli · Creator of AMUD Dashboard

I live in SSH. Some of you live in Portainer. Both are valid.

AMUD Dashboard deploys as a stack: amud_app + amud_agent + amud_run volume.

Portainer steps​

  1. Stacks → Add stack → name it amud
  2. Paste the compose from /docs/installation/docker
  3. Set AMUD_AGENT_SECRET to something long and random
  4. Same secret in both services — write it down
  5. Deploy

Agent needs /var/run/docker.sock:ro and AMUD_DOCKER=1.

After deploy​

http://your-host:8000 → login → change password → add cards in UI.

Bind ./data to a host path you snapshot. That's your backup.

Portainer-specific notes: /docs/installation/portainer

Docker path uses a bit more RAM than native Proxmox LXC. Trade-off for convenience.
