The idea was to create a server with docker where it would be possible to isolate all servers, services and communications related to home automation at the network level.

The server itself is on its own vlan (Vlan: homesrv) but requires communication with the Vlans:

Using code-server docker container for Development / Maintenance.

Using portainer stack (stack name: nginx) connected to this repo. Docker Compose

All configuration is set during docker build.

code-server

for more flexibility on bind mount stack is maintained directly on portainer (stack name: code-server).
