Dashticz - Beginner question

Hello all,

as I'm using the beta branch of Domoticz and as i understood from the wiki that each domoticz update will wipe the DAshticz folder i would like to setup the Dashticz on a separate web server as it is mentioned that you can either install on domoticz or on any other web server.

is it possible to install Dashticz on a Synology apache web server ? what are the necessary package for that ? only apache or do i also need to install node.js V4 ?

any input will be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Flo

You can also use the symlink option as described here: https://github.com/Dashticz/dashticz_v2 ... -dashboard

After a Domoticz update, only the symlink needs to be created again then (but your whole config is still there)

I don't expect you need anything special on the Synology web server, only if you want to be able to save the config using the interface, than you need php.

There was a time it did, maybe the update process has changed.

On the other hand it's good practice to keep things separated, so the symlink option can be worth it.
