AdGuardHome Infra

We all care about privacy, right?

If you do, you should start proxying your network's DNS requests through AdGuardHome and filter out the unwanted like ad trackers, malware, phishing and adult websites.

Setup

An AdGuardHome instance will be installed on your own server, to fully comply with your own rules.

A. Prerequisites

Server

A fresh Server with:

  • Ubuntu 18.04
  • a public IP
  • at least 1 CPU and 1 GB of RAM
  • ssh access to the server using your local private key

Few recommended hosting providers: Hetzner, DigitalOcean.

Clone this repo locally

git clone [email protected]:radutopala/adguardhome-infra.git

Go installed

Install Go language from https://golang.org/dl/.

B. Update configuration

Check ./config.json and update:

  • server.ip to your server's public IP
  • adguardhome.auth.user and adguardhome.auth.password to some random long values, for basic auth on the AdGuardHome's Dashboard
  • caddy.domain to a domain where you want to see the AdGuard's Dashboard

C. Domain A entry

Add an A entry into your DNS manager for caddy.domain to your server.ip.

D. Build the infra

./main.go build:infra

E. Dashboard

You should now be able to see the AdGuardHome's Dashboard at caddy.domain.

F. Local router's DNS setup

In the Dashboard open the Setup Guide (at /#guide).

Recommended is to setup the router's DNS, using the server.ip. You should be using only this server.ip, to proxy DNS requests through it and filter out.

AdGuardHome Update

You can easily update your AdGuardHome instance to the latest version by running:

./main.go provision:adguardhome --update

Mac on Dev

In case you want to test locally first on your Mac:

local/bin/mac/adguardhome -c config/config.yml -w local

Credits

This repo uses https://github.com/go-exec/exec, to build the infra.

Special thanks to AdGuardHome's team for their very useful privacy tool.
