Anso 71678081f0 refactor(frontend): extract useFleetUpdateStatus + useFleetPolling from FleetView (F5-7) (#921)
Move the update workflow state machine and the polling driver out of the
FleetView shell into two dedicated hooks under FleetView/hooks/. No
behavior change.

useFleetUpdateStatus owns updateStatuses + updatingNodeId + the four
modal/dialog/reconnecting state slots, the synchronously-held
updateStatusesRef, and every callback that touches the update workflow
(fetchUpdateStatus, triggerNodeUpdate, confirmLocalUpdate,
triggerUpdateAll, dismissNodeUpdate, retryNodeUpdate). The inline four-
line "Check Updates" handler collapses into a single checkUpdates()
callback returned from the hook.

useFleetPolling is a pure side-effect hook that owns the initial-mount
fetch, the paid-tier 30s overview + 120s update-status interval pair,
and the 5s fast-poll accelerator gated on hasUpdatingRef. The polling
hook does not know about update semantics; the consumer passes in
updateStatuses and the fetch callbacks.

Shell drops from 523 to 385 LOC. useState calls drop from 13 to 6,
useEffect from 4 to 0, useCallback from 8 to 2, useRef from 2 to 0.

Tested manually in browser: fleet view loads, masthead populates, Check
Updates opens the sheet and fetches statuses, Refresh fires
fetch-overview, no console errors from the refactor (existing
unreachable-remote-node WebSocket failures are unrelated). Dev servers
killed after validation.

Sencho

Docker Hub Docker Pulls License

Self-hosted Docker Compose management with self-healing infrastructure, atomic deployments, and multi-network fleet control. Built for engineers who want Kubernetes-grade reliability without the complexity.

Sencho Dashboard


Why Sencho?

Works across every network

Pilot Agent tunnels through NAT and firewalls so every node in your fleet is reachable from the dashboard, regardless of network topology. No port-forwarding. No VPN. No SSH.

Containers crash. Sencho fixes them.

Auto-heal policies watch your stacks and take action (restart, redeploy, notify) before you even open your laptop. Define the rules once; the recovery runs itself.

Deploy safely without Kubernetes

Atomic deployments mean a failed stack never leaves you in a broken half-up state. Rollback is one click. Deploy enforcement policies block non-compliant images before they ever run.

Define behavior, not procedures

Auto-update policies, scheduled operations, webhooks, and deploy enforcement let you codify how your infrastructure behaves. The UI is for oversight; the engine runs the work.


Features

Stack Management

  • Monaco editor with syntax highlighting and multi-file support
  • Atomic deployments with live progress tracking and one-click rollback
  • Git-sourced stacks: pull and sync from any repository
  • Stack file explorer and label management

Monitoring & Observability

  • Live log streaming with search and filtering across all containers
  • CPU, RAM, and disk threshold alerts with configurable actions
  • Container stats, health checks, and image update notifications
  • Global observability view across all nodes in your fleet

Fleet Management

  • Multi-node via authenticated HTTP/WebSocket proxy (no SSH, no remote socket)
  • Fleet view and sync for coordinated updates across nodes
  • Pilot Agent for NAT traversal and firewall-crossing connections
  • Node compatibility checks before deploying

Automation

  • Auto-heal policies: detect and recover from container failures automatically
  • Auto-update policies: roll out new image versions on your terms
  • Scheduled operations with cron expressions
  • Webhooks and deploy enforcement rules

Security

  • SSO: custom OIDC (any spec-compliant provider), Google/GitHub/Okta presets, LDAP/Active Directory
  • Two-factor authentication and RBAC with deployer, node-admin, and auditor roles
  • Audit log, vulnerability scanning with VEX suppression, and private registry support
  • Deploy enforcement to block non-compliant images

Operations

  • App Store with one-click LinuxServer.io template deployments
  • Sencho Cloud Backup for off-site stack archives
  • Notification routing to Slack, Discord, email, and webhooks
  • Global search across stacks and containers

Architecture

Sencho's architecture combines a Distributed API model with an optional Pilot Agent for complex networks.

  • Distributed API: Remote nodes are managed by proxying authenticated HTTP/WebSocket requests to autonomous Sencho instances running on each server. No SSH. No remote Docker socket exposure. No polling agent. Each node speaks the same Sencho API, so the dashboard is just another client.
  • Pilot Agent: For nodes behind NAT or strict firewalls, the Pilot Agent establishes secure outbound tunnels to the primary dashboard instance. This guarantees full fleet visibility and management without requiring port-forwarding, VPNs, or inbound network access.

Quick Start

Docker run (quickest):

docker run -d --name sencho \
  -p 1852:1852 \
  -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
  -v sencho_data:/app/data \
  -e COMPOSE_DIR=/opt/docker \
  saelix/sencho:latest

Docker Compose (recommended for production):

services:
  sencho:
    image: saelix/sencho:latest
    container_name: sencho
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - "1852:1852"
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
      - ./data:/app/data
      # 1:1 Compose Path Rule: the host path MUST match the container path
      - /opt/docker:/opt/docker
    environment:
      - COMPOSE_DIR=/opt/docker
      - DATA_DIR=/app/data
docker compose up -d

Then open http://your-server:1852 and create your admin account.
