Install Organizr ​

Organizr can be your portal that brings all homelab services in a single landing page. Each app can be launched as a new tab or in a New Window. No more searching your bookmarks and open a new tab for each services!

What’s even better is it also featured interactive widget, allowing you to have a quick stats for the stuff going on in each services!

TIP

Organizr uses iFrame to embed these app in the same window. If the app require additional login page or authentication, this method won't work but it has the option to show that page in a new Window.

How Does It Differ Than GetHomepage ​

Personally I see Organizr as a service that complements GetHomepage, which I use to have a quick statistic view of all the services. I use Organizr as a single portal for all the unRAID and external services.

Install on unRAID ​

Search for organizr in unRAID App page.

This is what it looks like at first use. You may ignore the PHP 7.4 Required warning since we run organizr as container image instead of running in the host.

Untitled

Home Page ​

Organizr has a home page that can show interactive widgets for supported third party apps. This is similar to Service Widgets in GetHomepage.

Enabling Home Page ​

First, we have to enable it. Go to Tab Editor, and toggle on Active for the Homepage icon.

Once enabled, refresh the page and you should see the Home icon.

Untitled

When you view the Homepage by default, there won’t be anything showed there. To start getting stats/widget to show, click Tab Editor > Homepage Items. Click on any of the icons to customize it.

Untitled

These services follows the similar rule just like when adding to Gethomepage. You simply need to fill in the service URL, give it the API key, toggle any additional settings if needed, and done!

Let’s use Radarr for example.

First, fill in these info for the service.

Untitled

Next, click the Queue button on the left sidebar, then toggle on Add to Combined Downloader so that it appear as a tab in the Downloader widget. You can combine multiple downloader queue from Downloader app like Sonarr and qBittorrent into one panel to make the UI cleaner.

Untitled

TIP

Example of Combined Downloader enabled for Radarr, Sonarr, and qBittorrent

Untitled

By adding to Calender, the item will show up in the Calendar app.

Untitled

TIP

Upcoming and aired movies shows up in the Calendar app.

Untitled

Make sure to click the Save button on the top right before testing the connection.

You should then see the connection status at the bottom right.

Untitled

Moving Home Page Items ​

You can move any home page items as you see fit. Unlike Gethomepage, these widget will always fill up the whole row, so you cannot set them up as columns.

In my case, I moved the essential info to the top such as uptime, and move the Calendar to the bottom since it occupied a lot of space.

Calendar App ​

Filtered by Movies

Untitled

Splash Page ​

Enabling the Splash Page would show that app in a dedicated page, kind of like Android App Launcher menu.

Toggle it for the app you want.

Untitled

To show the Splash Page, click your profile at the top right, then select Splash Page. You should see a list of icons appearing and the background would be blurred. All apps click on Splash Page will respect the Type you set for the app in Tab Editor, e.g. Show as iFrame or Open as New Tab.

The Splash Page is also showed when you login.

Untitled

Install Additional Theme ​

You can also install additional theme by going to Customize > Marketplace . I am a fan for Overseer purple-ish color scheme.

Untitled

After installed, go to Customize > Appearance > Colors & Themes , then select the installed theme from Theme drop down menu.

Untitled

What Happens if Service is Down ​

You should see a blinking red dots on the icon.

Untitled

TIP

For this to work you have to toggle on the Ping button for the service, then fill in the IP address used to reach that service in the Ping URL field. alt text
