Homer rely on a single yaml configuration file, located in the /assets directory.
.dist sample configuration files are available to help you get started. Alternatively, the example below can be
copied into the config file.
Note
On docker installations, the sample configuration is automatically installed when no configuration is found if the configuration directory is writable to the docker user. If no configuration has been installed, check your container logs and your mounted configuration directory ownership & permissions

If you choose to fetch message information from an endpoint, the output format should be as follows (or you can custom map fields as shown in tips-and-tricks):
{
"style": null,
"title": "Lorem ipsum 42",
"content": "LA LA LA Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, ....."
}null value or missing keys will be ignored and value from the config.yml will be used if available.
Empty values (either in config.yml or the endpoint data) will hide the element (ex: set "title": "" to hide the title bar).
As a webapp (PWA) the dashboard can still be displayed when your homer server is offline. The connectivity checker periodically send a HEAD request bypassing the PWA cache to the dashbord page to make sure it's still reachable.
It can be useful when you access your dashboard through a VPN or ssh tunnel for example, to know is your conection is up. It also helps when using an authentication proxy, it will reloads the page if the authentication expires (when a redirection is send in response to the HEAD request).
Homer uses bulma CSS, which provides a modifiers syntax. You'll notice in the config there is a tagstyle option. It can be set to any of the bulma modifiers. You'll probably want to use one of these 4 main colors:
is-info(blue)is-success(green)is-warning(yellow)is-danger(red)
You can read the bulma modifiers page for other options regarding size, style, or state.
See colors settings in the configuration example above.
Favicon and application icon (pwa) are located in the assets/icons directory and can be replaced by any image you want (just keep the same name & size).
The /assets/manifest.json can also be edited to change the app (pwa) name, description and other settings.
See icons documentation here.
