Uninstall
Remove HomeBox cleanly — it shows exactly what will go and asks before touching anything.
From the box
sudo bash /opt/homebox/scripts/uninstall.sh
Or, if the files on the box are already gone or broken:
curl -fsSL https://get.abeksis.net/uninstall.sh | sudo bash
Both print an inventory of exactly what will be removed — containers, networks, images and the size of everything under /opt/homebox — and then ask you to type remove. Anything else, or pressing Ctrl+C, leaves the box as it was.
What stays
- Docker. It was probably wanted anyway, and removing it would take any other containers on the machine with it.
- Storage outside
/opt/homebox. A media library on a NAS or another disk is never touched. Uninstalling the dashboard must never mean deleting the films.
Everything under /opt/homebox goes — including generated passwords, app settings and the backups stored there. Download a backup first if you might want it.
Options
--keep-data | Remove everything except data/ and backups/. |
--keep-images | Leave downloaded images in place. |
--yes | Skip the question. For scripts only. |
sudo bash /opt/homebox/scripts/uninstall.sh --keep-data
