Nomploy Nomad Packs

← All packs

kaneo v0.1.0

Productivity

Kaneo — an open-source project management platform: boards, tasks, time tracking and team collaboration, kept simple. Deployed as an all-in-one host-networked Nomad job (PostgreSQL + the Kaneo app, which serves both the API and the web UI).

nomad-pack run kaneo --registry nomploy
…or one line (add registry + run)
curl -fsSL https://packs.nomploy.com/install.sh | sh -s -- kaneo

Needs nomad-pack on PATH. The script only adds the nomploy registry and runs this pack.

Back up this pack

This pack stores data in one Docker named volume: kaneo_db_data

⚠ This pack bundles a database. A cold copy of the volume can be inconsistent — for a reliable backup, dump the DB (pg_dump / mysqldump) or stop the job while backing up.

restic

# Run on the node hosting this pack. Point restic at your repo first:
#   export RESTIC_REPOSITORY="s3:https://<account>.r2.cloudflarestorage.com/<bucket>"
#   export RESTIC_PASSWORD="<repo-password>"
#   export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<key>  AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<secret>
restic backup \
  /var/lib/docker/volumes/kaneo_db_data/_data

rclone (sync to S3/R2)

rclone sync /var/lib/docker/volumes/kaneo_db_data/_data backup:<bucket>/kaneo_db_data

Paths assume the default Docker volume location (/var/lib/docker/volumes). Restore by stopping the job, restoring files into the same volume, and re-running the pack.

Readme

kaneo

Kaneo is an open-source project management platform — boards, tasks, time tracking and team collaboration, kept deliberately simple.

This pack runs Kaneo all-in-one as a single host-networked Nomad job:

Both share the host network and talk over 127.0.0.1, so no mesh networking is required. Database migrations run automatically on first start.

Quick start

nomad-pack run kaneo --registry=nomploy

Then open http://<node-ip>:5173 and create the first account.

Configuration

Variable Default Notes
port 5173 Web UI / API host port
client_url http://localhost:5173 Public URL — set to your domain in production
db_password change me Bundled PostgreSQL password
auth_secret 0000… Session signing key (openssl rand -hex 32) — keep stable

Change db_password and auth_secret before deploying anywhere real, and keep auth_secret stable across deploys (rotating it signs everyone out). The app derives its database connection from the POSTGRES_* settings, so no separate DATABASE_URL is needed.

Data persists in the kaneo_db_data named volume.
