Any recommendations for a self hosted checklist reddit / selfhosted ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Xalvas · 2023-10-25 11:12 Hi everyone. I work in IT, and we have a daily checklist that some of the staff run through, covering various checks on various systems - some as simple as moving files, others like starting a routine job, etc. ​ We currently run through this on paper, ticking off the entry once we've actioned it. I was wondering if anyone knew of a **simple** alternative we could host? We don't need a full fledged program, that has to do lists, and collaboration, etc, just something simple that we can create a checklist of tasks, that resets daily which the IT staff can open up and check off (so that everyone else can see also). ​ I understand this may be very specific, but thought best to ask the land of self hosted anyway. Thanks ---------------------------------------------------------------------- thekrautboy · 2023-10-25 11:14 Maybe make a public checklist in memos, then set the files as readonly and restart the container with a cronjob, so every day the list is reset. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Psychological_Try559 · 2023-10-25 12:52 If you're comfortable writing a bash script & adding a cronjob (or systemd timer), make a markdown checklist and then have the "scheduler of your choice" copy the default (empty) markdown checklist to overwrite today's markdown checklist. Then all you need is a tool that can render a checklist from markdown. Extra credit if you make a "log" by also copying the completed checklist to a folder & renaming with date. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- desnudopenguino · 2023-10-25 15:23 I think some of the kanban style tools out there allow for daily tasks, like asana or trello, wekan. Not sure if those ones specifically do, but it's a starting point. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- DatDamnZotzz · 2023-10-25 16:04 We use [https://budibase.com/](https://budibase.com/) and created a simple app that just stashes the "checklist" in the db, then you can create a reports page to look up who did what. Of course we use buddibase for other things as well in IT for simple forms etc so it worked for us. Look at your apps you currently use and what you have in place and don't reinvent the wheel. If you have SharePoint you can just create a new list, if you have one/google, drives, you can just share a spread sheet. Use teams? Do a teams channel. A lot of this depends on the reporting requirements. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- dcabines · 2023-10-25 23:30 [Silver Bullet](https://silverbullet.md/) is the most flexible thing for me, but may be too freeform for you. You could write a script to copy a template page every day. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- dcabines · 2023-10-25 23:33 Man, I just mentioned [Silver Bullet](https://silverbullet.md/) just to see you said to use markdown hours ago. Nice! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- rogierg · 2023-10-26 06:51 Why not put the effort it takes to setup this list thingy in automating these tasks?
