# WALauncher

WALauncher is a web-based launcher designed as an alternative to [Muximux](https://github.com/mescon/Muximux), primarily used for managing various web services like Servarr apps. However, it can be configured to launch and manage any web application.

## Usage

### Using Docker

1. **Create docker-compose.yaml**

Create a `docker-compose.yaml` file in your project directory:

```yaml
services:
walauncher:
image: filiprojek/walauncher:latest
container_name: walauncher
ports:
- 5200:80
volumes:
- ./walauncher/config.json:/var/www/html/config.json
- ./walauncher/img/:/var/www/html/img/
restart: unless-stopped
```

2. **Start and Stop the Compose**

Start the containers:

```bash
docker-compose up -d
```

Stop the containers:

```bash
docker-compose down
```

3. **Configuration**

- `cd` to a newly created `walauncher` folder
- Remove the `config.json` folder if it exists.
- Create a `config.json` file in the project root with the following structure:

```json
{
"apps": [
{
"name": "Some service",
"img": "image_name.jpg",
"url": "http://localhost:8000/"
},
{
"name": "Some service",
"img": "image_name.jpg",
"url": "http://localhost:8100/"
}
]
}
```

Replace `"Some service"`, `"image_name.jpg"`, and `"http://localhost:8000/"` with your own service names, image filenames in the `img/` folder, and their respective URLs.

3. **Upload Icons and Images**

Upload your service icons (`.svg`, `.jpg`, etc.) to the `walauncher/img/` folder.

### Manual Setup (Without Docker)

1. **Setup Web Server**

Download the repository and serve it using a web server of your choice (e.g., Apache, Nginx).

2. **Configuration**

- Create a `config.json` file in the project root with the following structure:

```json
{
"apps": [
{
"name": "Some service",
"img": "image_name.jpg",
"url": "http://localhost:8000/"
},
{
"name": "Some service",
"img": "image_name.jpg",
"url": "http://localhost:8100/"
}
]
}
```

Replace `"Some service"`, `"image_name.jpg"`, and `"http://localhost:8000/"` with your own service names, image filenames in the `img/` folder, and their respective URLs.

3. **Upload Icons and Images**

Upload your service icons (`.svg`, `.jpg`, etc.) to the `img/` folder in the project root.

4. **Start the Web Server**

Once configured, start your web server to serve walauncher.

## Configuration

WALauncher supports additional optional configuration options to enhance customization. These options allow you to modify the behavior and appearance of the web application by adding an options object in the `config.json` file

### Example `config.json` with Options

```json
{
"apps": [
{
"name": "Some service",
"img": "image_name.jpg",
"url": "http://localhost:8000/"
},
{
"name": "Some service",
"img": "image_name.jpg",
"url": "http://localhost:8100/"
}
],
"options": {
"footer": true,
"footertext": "Your customized footer where you can use HTML",
"title": "My Home Launcher"
}
}
```

### Options

- **footer** (boolean, default: `true`): Control the visibility of the footer.
- Set `footer` to `false` to hide the footer completely from the site.

- **footertext** (string, optional): Customize the content of the footer.
- Use this option to provide custom text for the footer. You can use HTML for formatting.

- **title** (string, optional): Customize the document title.
- Change `title` to another value to customize the title displayed in the browser's title bar.

These options are entirely optional. If not specified, the default behavior will be applied.
