The app catalog · Rigel Docs

Browse a catalog of 58 self-hostable apps and install any of them onto your own cluster in a few clicks. A guided wizard fills in sensible defaults, each app ships with resource presets that already work, and a node-fit check confirms the target node has room before you commit. Everything runs on your hardware, so your data stays with you and there’s no monthly bill.

Where: Catalog (/catalog). Pick an app to open its install wizard.

Browsing the catalog

Apps are grouped by category so you can find what you need:

Dev tools: e.g. Gitea.
Productivity: e.g. Nextcloud, n8n.
Databases: e.g. MinIO.
Media: e.g. Immich, Jellyfin.
Networking: e.g. Vaultwarden.
Observability: e.g. Uptime Kuma, Plausible, Metabase.

Each entry describes what the app does and what it needs, so you can decide before you start.

The install wizard

Picking an app opens a guided wizard that asks for the essentials with defaults already filled in:

Namespace: where the app lands.
Hostname: how you’ll reach it.
Storage: how much persistent volume to request.

Every app ships with CPU/memory presets that work, so you’re not guessing at limits. A node-fit check tells you whether the target node can accommodate the app’s requests before you install, catching an over-subscribed node up front rather than after a pod fails to schedule.

After it’s installed

Update notifications: Rigel flags when an installed app has a newer version available, so you know when there’s an upgrade to pick up.
Full uninstall / purge: when you’re done with an app, Rigel finds every piece of it, has you type the name to confirm, and removes it all: no leftover volumes, secrets, or config.

Notes & limitations

Apps install to your cluster. This is self-hosting on your own hardware, not a Rigel-hosted or managed service.
The catalog currently covers 58 apps across the categories above.
Presets and defaults are a sensible starting point; adjust namespace, hostname, storage, and resources to fit your environment.
