Support

Rickhouse is a small project. Help comes from the docs first and GitHub second.

Report a problem or ask a question

Open an issue on GitHub. Say whether it's the web app or the iPhone app, and what you expected to happen. Don't paste passwords, tokens or your server address.

Common questions

Do I need my own server?

Yes, today. The web app runs on a server you control, and the iPhone app connects to it. Standalone apps and a hosted service aren't available yet.

How do I install it?

Follow the Unraid and Docker install guide. It runs as two containers: the app and PostgreSQL.

What's the first sign-in?

The first run creates an admin account with a generated password, printed once in the app's log. You're asked to choose a new one.

Can I use it away from home?

Only if you make your server reachable: a reverse proxy, or a VPN such as Tailscale. Rickhouse can't assume that works for you.

Can I get my data out?

Yes. Use the in-app backups, or export a plain CSV that any spreadsheet can read.
