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).

Over the last two months, I developed wanderer. It is a self-hosted alternative to sites like alltrails.com or in other words a self-hosted trail database. It started out more as a small hobby project to teach myself some new technologies but in the end, I decided to develop it into a fully-fledged application.

Core Features:

  • Manage your trails
  • Extensive map integration and visualization
  • Share trails with other people and explore theirs
  • Advanced filter and search functionality
  • Create custom lists to organize your trails further
  • Chique design with a dark and light theme
  • Fully mobile compatible

wanderer is completely open-source. You can find the GitHub repo here: https://github.com/Flomp/wanderer

wanderer is still under active development so if you encounter any bugs/errors or have suggestions please let me know here or open an issue on GitHub.

Wow, this looks super! πŸ™Œ

Just cross-posted this to OpenSource. Thank you so Mich. This is great.

Soooo cool! If it could get from gpx the dates when activities where made, autoimport multiple gpx files, bug fixing, tableview (small overview from all activities) it will be my Strava killer..

Great work! Thx

Any chance to pack it into a single container instead of three? Would make it easier to work with unraid.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Database is rarely, if ever bundled into the app container, unless it's SQLite.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

Yes, unraid community apps are a bit unconventional in this regard, everything needed should be in one container here.

How do I change port to something else? 3000 is already used by Gitea :)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

No that port is used by Homepage. B)

Come on man.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

With docker you can simply change the port mapping in the compose file

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I've done that, all containers report healthy, but still can't connect. I've tried changing ORIGIN to ip;port, domain: port, still nothing. Really weird.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 year ago

This is an excellent use case for a self hosted service, since location data is frequently used for nefarious purposes.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I tried Wanderer few days ago and I did find it very nice, yet quite buggy.

I was forced to update the page a second time before being able to do something, for an example using the menu.

But other than that, I find Wanderer very nice! Just miss seeing mainly how fast I was travelled in km/h. The statistics and details provided in workout-tracker1 is absolutely amazing! If you add such details into your project, that would be awesome!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Speed statistics were added in v0.2.0. Hopefully also with some bugfixes.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Very nice :) Me like! But the bug is still there when you have clicked on a trail on the home page. The page just scrolls up to the top and you have to update the page to see the trail.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

That's strange, I never had that happen. If you have the time could you please open an issue on GitHub?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Love it.

I've been willing to learn more about programming with location/map data so definitely checking this out.

Are you looking for contributions or help on anything? I think I might at least look at providing a Dutch translation for the front-end if you're accepting PRs.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Absolutely all help is welcome. Please check out the roadmap for my current plans. I'd be delighted if you could add your Dutch translation here: https://translate.codeberg.org/projects/wanderer/wanderer/nl/

Dank je wel!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

This is ripe for multiuser and federation

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Wow. I aspire to be as knowledgeable as you one day. This motivated me.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

This is very nice :) I was working on a proof of concept similar to this to have a quick search functionality for FrankenJura (german hiking database) but it was lost in a drawer due to lack of time 😁 Great work and thanks for sharing it :)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Happy to help. If you can get a dump of the database it should be quite easy to import it into wanderer via the API πŸ‘

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

If I recall correctly, I couldnβ€˜t find API endpoints back then and had to browse/prse the pges based on the regions and the links on the landing pages πŸ˜…

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nice ! You made me think of spinning up a little server. It's been a while since I've dabbled in managing a server and not aure I have the time for that. But you made the chances if me going for it much higher.

Would a raspberry pi 4 be enough for running it ?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Absolutely. I have it running on a Pi 5 and that's more than enough. You only need 1GB of RAM when first starting wanderer. After that it sits at around 100Mb.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Super cool thank you for making this! I just got a bike for the first time in over 20 years and I'm ready to explore my area. I have been trying out those other apps like all trails and trail forks, everything being so paywalled is frustrating.

The bike I just got, it's a beaut. A Clem Smith Jr. L from Rivendell Bike Works. I'm loving just scoping out parts and things but it's a super great bike already.

I look forward to trying this out and thanks again!

[–] [email protected] 52 points 1 year ago

I LOVE THIS.

Self hosted, GOOD LOOKING (rarity in FOSS), nice to use and privacy-aiding.

Thank you so much!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

What's the scope of this, just a route catalogue or will it sort of become a hiking tracker as well?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

wanderer currently parses distance, elevation gain, duration and speed. Parsing heart rate would be an easy addition, though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

That would be a great addition, I could use it as a history of my hikes then!
