How to Install Heimdall Docker Dashboard

This guide shows you how to install Heimdall Docker dashboard so every self-hosted app you run lives behind one clean, organized start page.

Introduction

Basically, Heimdall is a quick and easy way to organize all of your applications and frequently visited links into one page. Personally, I have also enabled the Google search bar and use this application as my browser start page. When you add your application to the dashboard through its easy to use interface, you can drag and drop to move the buttons around as you see fit. You can also create different pages to sort your applications further.

This tutorial assumes you already have Docker Installed on your system, if not, you can view the Quick and Easy Steps to Install Docker.

Create a Volume

Run the following command to create a volume in docker to persistently store your configuration by running the following code in your ssh terminal:

docker volume create heimdall

Docker Run Code

After that, copy and paste the below command into your terminal to download and run the container

docker run

-name=heimdall

-e PUID=1000

Then -e PGID=1000

-e TZ=america/new_york

-p 8006:80

-p 406:443

-v heimdall:/config

-restart unless-stopped

linuxserver/heimdall

Variable Information

-p 8006:80 Specifically, this maps port 8006 to port 80 on the container for HTTP traffic.

-p 406:443 Similarly, this maps port 406 to 443 on the container for HTTPS traffic.

-v heimdall/configheimdall docker volume mapped to the containers /config folder-e TZ=america/new_yorkYour time zone from the TZ Database

-e PGID=1000 Likewise, this sets the Process Group ID.

-e PUID=1000 Additionally, this sets the Process User ID.

That’s it!

Now that Heimdall is running, you should be able to access your installation at http://YOURSERVERIP:8006. Then, replace YOURSERVERIP with the server IP or hostname of the computer running Docker. After that, you’ll be up and running.
