# OwnTracks
|
|
|
|
[OwnTracks](https://owntracks.org/) allows you to keep track of your own location. You can build your private location diary or share it with your family and friends. OwnTracks is open-source and uses open protocols for communication so you can be sure your data stays secure and private.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Using a smartphone app, OwnTracks allows you to collect and analyse your own location data **without** sharing this data with a cloud provider (_i.e. Apple, Google_). Potential use cases are:
|
|
|
|
* Sharing family locations without relying on Apple Find-My-friends
|
|
* Performing automated actions in [HomeAssistant](/recipes/homeassistant/) when you arrive/leave home
|
|
|
|
## Ingredients
|
|
|
|
1. [Docker swarm cluster](/ha-docker-swarm/design/) with [persistent shared storage](/ha-docker-swarm/shared-storage-ceph.md)
|
|
2. [Traefik](/ha-docker-swarm/traefik) configured per design
|
|
3. DNS entry for the hostname you intend to use, pointed to your [keepalived](ha-docker-swarm/keepalived/) IP
|
|
|
|
## Preparation
|
|
|
|
### Setup data locations
|
|
|
|
We'll need a directory so store OwnTracks' data , so create ```/var/data/owntracks```:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
mkdir /var/data/owntracks
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Prepare environment
|
|
|
|
Create owntracks.env, and populate with the following variables
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
OAUTH2_PROXY_CLIENT_ID=
|
|
OAUTH2_PROXY_CLIENT_SECRET=
|
|
OAUTH2_PROXY_COOKIE_SECRET=
|
|
|
|
OTR_USER=recorder
|
|
OTR_PASSWD=yourpassword
|
|
MQTTHOSTNAME=owntracks.example.com
|
|
HOSTLIST=owntracks.example.com
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Setup Docker Swarm
|
|
|
|
Create a docker swarm config file in docker-compose syntax (v3), something like this:
|
|
|
|
!!! tip
|
|
I share (_with my [patreon patrons](https://www.patreon.com/funkypenguin)_) a private "_premix_" git repository, which includes necessary docker-compose and env files for all published recipes. This means that patrons can launch any recipe with just a ```git pull``` and a ```docker stack deploy``` 👍

|
|
|
|
!!! note
|
|
Setup unique static subnets for every stack you deploy. This avoids IP/gateway conflicts which can otherwise occur when you're creating/removing stacks a lot. See [my list](/reference/networks/) here.

|
## Serving
|
|
|
|
### Launch OwnTracks stack
|
|
|
|
Launch the OwnTracks stack by running ```docker stack deploy owntracks -c <path -to-docker-compose.yml>```
|
|
|
|
Log into your new instance at https://**YOUR-FQDN**, with user "root" and the password you specified in gitlab.env.
|
|
|
|
## Chef's Notes
|
|
|
|
1. If you wanted to expose the OwnTracks Web UI directly, you could remove the oauth2_proxy from the design, and move the traefik-related labels directly to the wekan container. You'd also need to add the traefik network to the owntracks container.
|
|
2. I'm using my own image rather than owntracks/recorderd, because of a [potentially swarm-breaking bug](https://github.com/owntracks/recorderd/issues/14) I found in the official container. If this gets resolved (_or if I was mistaken_) I'll update the recipe accordingly.
|
|
3. By default, you'll get a fully accessible, unprotected MQTT broker. This may not be suitable for public exposure, so you'll want to look into securing mosquitto with TLS and ACLs.
