Thomasandajnart ca7be8f3ad fix(integrations): support UniFi controller default ports (#6787)
* fix(integrations): use Unifi default port 8443 when no port is given

The node-unifi library hardcodes https:// in its base URL and the
Unifi controller API only speaks HTTPS. When a user adds the
integration with a bare http:// or https:// URL, getPortFromUrl
returned 80 or 443, and the library attempted a TLS handshake on
the wrong port. The server's plain HTTP response caused
'EPROTO ... wrong version number'.

Derive the port from the user's explicit port, or fall back to 8443
(the integration's defaultPort). Closes #6207.

* style: auto-fix lint and format

* fix(integrations): support UniFi controller default ports

* docs(unifi): resolve review leftovers

Homarr Documentation (@homarr/docs)

The official homarr.dev documentation site, built with Docusaurus 3 and living inside the Homarr monorepo.

Why it's in the monorepo

Having documentation alongside the application code enables:

  • Two-way linking — the docs app imports from @homarr/definitions for type-safe integration/widget metadata, and the main app references doc paths via generated sitemap types
  • Atomic PRs — code changes and their documentation updates ship in the same pull request
  • Shared tooling — same Node version, pnpm catalog, oxlint/oxfmt, CI pipeline
  • Build-time validation — Docusaurus strict mode catches broken links and references at build time

Development

From the monorepo root:

# Start the docs dev server (port 3003)
pnpm dev:docs

# Or from within this directory
pnpm dev

# Point the docs at a local PocketBase instance
WORKSHOP_API_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8090 pnpm dev:docs

The standalone docs use WORKSHOP_API_URL for PocketBase and HOMARR_WEBSITE_URL for the public site origin. The old WORKSHOP_URL name is a deprecated one-release alias.

Build

# Build docs only
pnpm turbo build --filter=@homarr/docs

# Build everything (docs + main app + tasks + websocket)
pnpm build

Lint & Format

Uses oxlint and oxfmt (same as the rest of the monorepo):

pnpm lint        # oxlint
pnpm format      # oxfmt (check)
pnpm format:fix    # oxfmt (fix)

pnpm typecheck

Content Structure

docs/
├── getting-started/    # Installation guides, glossary, prerequisites
├── management/         # Boards, apps, users, integrations, settings, tasks, API
├── integrations/       # 56 integration guides (one folder each)
├── widgets/            # 43 widget guides (one folder each)
├── advanced/           # SSO, env vars, proxy, styling, CLI, development
└── community/          # FAQ, donate, license, translations, get-in-touch

Each integration/widget doc follows a consistent pattern:

  • index.ts — typed metadata (IntegrationDefinition / WidgetDefinition)
  • index.mdx — content using shared React components (IntegrationHeader, WidgetHeader, etc.)

Importing from homarr packages

The docs app has @homarr/definitions as a workspace dependency. You can import integration kinds, widget kinds, and other definitions directly:

import { IntegrationKind } from "@homarr/definitions";

This enables type-safe references to homarr domain concepts within documentation code.

Search (Algolia DocSearch)

Search uses the Docusaurus Algolia index (crawler cd77a285-2756-4557-bf21-ee703748df15). A separate markdown index is built for LLM markdown indexing.

Crawler reference config: docsearch.config.js.

Verify search health:

pnpm verify:search

When a Homarr change affects user-facing behavior, update the corresponding documentation in this app. See the documentation-sync skill for the code-to-documentation mapping.
