Anyone remember that video of a guy proving he can cook chicken by slapping it many times?

this one, probably

I need to use the IP for specific reasons concerning my setup; and I don’t want the two containers to share a Docker network.

This used to work exactly as is when I set it up, but doesn’t anymore.

I tinkered with it some more now and I found that while I can ping the docker host, I can’t actually wget anything from any docker services from within the Homepage container. Currently at a loss why that might be.

Would love to see it.

Here’s mine from the Paperless compose.yml (non functional):

  webserver:
    image: ghcr.io/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx
    [...]
    labels:
      - homepage.group=Productivity
      - homepage.name=Paperless
      - homepage.icon=paperless.png
      - homepage.href=https://[LOCAL URL]
      - homepage.description=Document Management
      - homepage.widget.type=paperlessngx
      - homepage.widget.url=http://[PAPERLESS IP:PORT]
      - homepage.widget.key=[PAPERLESS API TOKEN]

And here’s the error from Homepage frontend:

    API Error: Unknown error
    URL: http://[PAPERLESS IP:PORT]/api/statistics/?format=json
    Raw Error:
    {
        "errno": -110,
        "code": "ETIMEDOUT",
        "syscall": "connect",
        "address": "[PAPERLESS IP]",
        "port": [PAPERLESS PORT]
    }

I don’t think it’s you. The paperless widget stopped working for me recently after it had been fine before. Similar setup to yours.

It bothered me a little but since the widget isn’t actually very useful to me I didn’t care to invest more time to get to the bottom of it.

I have a docker forgejo runner for CI with Codeberg. Where did you get stuck?
