## Documentation

# Deploy and Host RackPeek on Railway

RackPeek is a web UI and CLI tool for documenting and managing home lab and small-scale IT infrastructure. It helps you track hardware, services, networks, and their relationships in a clear, scriptable, and reusable way — without enterprise bloat or proprietary lock-in.

## About Hosting RackPeek

RackPeek runs as a single Docker container serving a web interface on port 8080. All state is stored in YAML files on a persistent volume at `/app/config`, making it lightweight and easy to back up. There are no external database dependencies — just deploy the container, attach a volume, and you're ready to document your infrastructure. The official Docker image supports both amd64 and arm64 architectures and is actively maintained.

## Common Use Cases

- Document and visualize home lab hardware, racks, and network topology
- Track services, their dependencies, and relationships across your infrastructure
- Generate Ansible inventory files from your documented infrastructure
- Share infrastructure documentation with team members via a clean web UI

## Dependencies for RackPeek Hosting

- Persistent volume mounted at `/app/config` for YAML configuration storage
