Programming and self hosting the results when I was ~14 is what led me to a tech background. No university, but I’ve been working professionally in both IT and software for over a decade and self hosting even longer.

I saw a few others, but the ones I looked at were basically instruct layers where you’d need to add your own parser. I didn’t find anything (in my 3 minutes of searching) that offers an openai chat completions endpoint, which is probably the main stopper.

I believe that’s because those two APIs support function calling, open source support is still coming along.

I’m not actually and you tell from that. Did you follow a guide / what precise steps did you perform?

My pleasure. Feel free to reach out if you have additional questions.

I do recommend this example docker compose though: https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n/tree/master/docker/compose/withPostgresAndWorker

That one spins up N8N with a worker that handles your workflows, which is useful if you want to scale up in the future. In any case either compose file would let you access N8N locally on port 5678, and the port can be altered in the compose file itself, where you change the left side to the port you want. https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/05-services/#ports

Traefik is just a reverse proxy. All that really matters is the ports you have it listening on and your current, if any, reverse proxy. And even if your preference is say, nginx w/ npm (nginx proxy manager) that’s not to say you can’t just reverse proxy to Traefik (though not recommended).

I will say however that Traefik is not required for N8N, it’s just an example in their docs. All it does is listen on port 5678, so you just use that port in your reverse proxy configuration. They do have a docker compose file without Traefik here: https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n/blob/master/docker/compose/withPostgres/docker-compose.yml

I’ve been using Porkbun for over 5 years and haven’t had any issues. I switched from a mix of Google Domains and Namecheap.

Generally the country based TLDs have that problem. That isn’t unique to porkbun or .de

Disagreed. If it requires a server side element, it incurs an ongoing cost and a subscription can be justified. And to clarify, by “requires”, I’m referring to the functionality, not having it shoveled in. And the price should be realistic.

Some apps do this well, Sleep for Android is an example that comes to mind. Free with ads, ad-free is an inexpensive one time purchase. You can also purchase additional plugin apps that add functionality that isn’t required or even useful for most people. And finally, they have a cloud plugin app to let you backup your data, you can pay for their cloud subscription which is $2.99 a year, but you can also just use other cloud for storage like Google drive.

I second this. They’re upfront about pricing and don’t have many different products so the interface isn’t overwhelming.
