Homepage to Glance tool

[JackBailey]

Hi, I transitioned from Homepage to this recently, and I really like it. I made the site I made to transfer my configs a little prettier and it's usable at https://homepage-to-glance.projects.jackbailey.dev (Source). Just wanted to share incase its useful to other people

Hey, that's pretty cool, thanks for making and sharing this!

I'll pin this to give it more exposure in case other people are looking for something like it.

I was wondering how about adding one more option for converting exported bookmarks.html from a chrome browser or any browser to glance bookmarks.

or is it a strange idea

Yeah I could definitely give it a go, shouldn't take very long

Does Glance handle env vars similar to homepage? For example, my sonarr service along with most of my homelab services looks like this in homepage:

    - Sonarr:
        icon: sonarr.png
        href: https://sonarr.{{HOMEPAGE_VAR_LOCAL}}
#        description: manage TV shows
        server: my-docker
        container: sonarr
        widget:
            type: sonarr
            url: http://{{HOMEPAGE_VAR_SERVER_IP}}:8989
            key: {{HOMEPAGE_VAR_SONARR_KEY}}
            enableQueue: true
           

Update:

Yes, after converting homepage services.yaml:

- Overseerr:
    href: http://{{HOMEPAGE_VAR_SERVER_IP}}:5055

to glances.yml:

              - title: Overseerr
                url: http://${HOMEPAGE_VAR_SERVER_IP}:5055

I just did a quick find/replace in sublime from {{ to ${ and }} to } in my glances.yml. In my compose file, I added the line:

    env_file:
      - ./.homepage.env

to just kept my existing homepage env vars sheet (e.g., IPs, tokens, etc.)

whoops, sorry that doesn't fully work - it works for things like change-detection token, but doesn't work for IPs in bookmarks. I'll play around.

Hey, currently only some fields support environment variables and only when the environment variable isn't in between any other strings, so this would work:

token: ${MY_TOKEN}

But this wouldn't:

token: something ${MY_TOKEN}

The next release addresses this issue so you can place the variable or multiple variables anywhere, though the fields that support this are mostly just tokens/passwords/etc. The configuration lists which widget fields have this feature. If you would like for it to be available for other fields, could you please submit an issue?
