readeck v0.1.0

Apps

Readeck — a lightweight, self-hosted read-it-later and bookmark app: save a link and it stores a clean, readable copy of the article (text, images, and highlights) so it stays available forever. A modern Pocket alternative. Deployed as a host-networked Nomad service using SQLite with a persistent data volume.

nomad-pack run readeck --registry nomploy

…or one line (add registry + run)

curl -fsSL https://packs.nomploy.com/install.sh | sh -s -- readeck

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: readeck_data

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/readeck_data/_data

rclone (sync to S3/R2)

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

readeck

Readeck — a lightweight, self-hosted read-it-later and bookmark app. Save a link and Readeck keeps a clean, readable copy of the article — text, images, and your highlights — so it stays available even if the original disappears. Organize with labels and collections; a modern Pocket alternative.

Single host-networked Nomad service using SQLite with a persistent data volume.

Deploy

nomad-pack registry add nomploy https://github.com/Nomploy/nomad-packs
nomad-pack run readeck --registry=nomploy

Configure

Variable	Default	Description
`port`	`8000`	Web UI port (`READECK_SERVER_PORT`).
`data_volume`	`readeck_data`	`/readeck` — the SQLite database and saved articles.
`image`	`codeberg.org/readeck/readeck:latest`	Container image. Pin a tag in production.
`resources`	`{ cpu = 300, memory = 256 }`	Task resources.

Create the admin account on first run, then save links via the web UI, the bookmarklet, or a browser extension. Articles are stored as clean readable copies in the data volume. Serves plain HTTP — front it with a reverse proxy for TLS. Pin the job to the node holding the volume with constraints.
