I've been using NAS for nearly two years, and after going through the initial phase of various tinkering, I have basically confirmed its functional modules. Most of the functionalities are actually completed using Docker containers. The main benefit of Docker containers is customization; you can configure the containers according to your needs, and migrating containers is also very convenient, making it easier to switch NAS in the future. Below, I will introduce several Docker containers that are still commonly used after various experiments.
Tools#
Bitwarden#
A well-established open-source password management tool that supports all platforms and allows direct import of password files from 1password. Most importantly, it's free!
Home-assistant#
The central hub for smart home control, which can integrate Xiaomi smart devices into HomeKit using plugins from HACS, and with a bit of code, you can design a nice control panel.
Jfa-go#
A user management program for Emby that allows you to invite others to register for your Emby via email and manage them centrally.
Manictime#
ManicTime is an automatic time tracking software that can track the usage of applications and web pages. It can monitor what you do on your computer every day, and the client can automatically tag, take screenshots, and upload to NAS (PS: Don't let your boss know about this software; it has an enterprise management mode, and once installed, you can't slack off!).
Speedtest#
An internal network speed testing software that can test the connection speed from the client to the NAS.
Teamspeak#
Used for voice communication while gaming, similar to YY, with a clean interface, no ads, good call quality, and low memory usage, plus it can install various plugins.
Transmission&Qbittorrent#
BT downloaders mainly used for downloading PT site torrents.
RSSHUB&Tiny Tiny RSS#
RSS subscription and reading across all platforms.
Bark#
iOS push notifications, combined with SMS Forwarder, ServerChan, Tencent Light Link, and a backup Android device for various monitoring pushes.
Entertainment#
Emby#
The main media management software on NAS, the client is not very user-friendly and needs to be paired with Infuse, mainly used for its scraping feature.
MoviePilot#
A powerful automated video downloading tool that automatically downloads subscribed videos from designated sites and imports them into Emby for viewing automation, supporting PT sites.
Jackett#
Jackett is a tool that supports BT/magnet resource aggregation search, serving as an indexer for download tools.
ChineseSubFinder#
An automated Chinese subtitle downloader that can search several subtitle resource websites with a lot of Chinese subtitles.
Reader#
The server version for reading, supporting the upload of epub files for cross-platform synchronized reading.
quark-auto-save#
Automatically subscribes to resources from Quark Cloud Drive.
Alist#
Mounts multiple cloud drives as WEBDAV; can also mount local hard drives to share resources.
Clouddrive2#
Mounts Alist to local for EMBY streaming playback.
Follow-up#
I will take some time to document the process of configuring some of the more challenging containers.
