Smart Garage

Your vehicles. Your data. Your NAS.

Self-hosted vehicle management for Unraid and homelab — maintenance, fuel, costs, and documents in one Docker container.

Why Smart Garage?

Most vehicle apps live in the cloud — your service history, receipts, and fuel data on someone else's server. Smart Garage runs entirely on your Unraid box or homelab: one container, one data folder, no subscription.

Built for people who want a clean garage dashboard without handing their data to a third party.

✨ Features

🖥️ Install

Unraid — Community Applications

Smart Garage is available in the Unraid Community Applications store. No docker compose required.

1. Open the Apps tab (Community Applications must be installed).
2. Search for Smart Garage.
3. Click Install and review the template settings:
   • Web UI port — default 3000 (change if that port is in use)
   • AppData — default /mnt/user/appdata/smart-garage (database + uploads; created automatically)
   • Upload limits — optional, defaults are fine for most users
4. Click Apply, then open the WebUI (or http://<unraid-ip>:<port>/).
5. Register your account (first user becomes admin) and add your first vehicle.

Updates: Docker → smart-garage → Force Update (pulls ghcr.io/flizzy27/smart-garage:latest).

Docker — Linux, NAS, homelab (no Unraid)

Use the pre-built image from GitHub Container Registry. You need a persistent volume mounted at /data inside the container.

docker run:

docker run -d \
  --name smart-garage \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  -p 3000:3000 \
  -v smart-garage-data:/data \
  -e DATABASE_URL=file:/data/smart-garage.db \
  -e UPLOAD_DIR=/data/uploads \
  -e MAX_UPLOAD_SIZE_MB=25 \
  -e MAX_IMAGE_SIZE_MB=10 \
  ghcr.io/flizzy27/smart-garage:latest

Open http://localhost:3000/ (or your host IP), register, and add a vehicle.

Docker Compose (optional):

docker compose up -d

Uses the same image and a named volume — see docker-compose.yml.
