Sparkbox integration with non-native apps?

Posted by MoxJet

Looking to integrate Cleanuparr into my sparkbox arr stack. How does this integrate with my existing sparkbox as a non-native app? Will it still automatically restart when I reset my media box, will it auto-update when the rest of my sparkbox looks for updates, etc.? Can I set it to be seen as one of these apps? Can I add an icon for it on my dashboard?

Honest answer: the main SparkBox dashboard only shows the curated apps today — there's no way to add a custom tile for something like Cleanuparr yet. You're not the first to ask, and I've noted it as a feature request. What works right now: install Homarr from the App Store. It's a dashboard app that auto-detects every Docker container on the box, including ones you added yourself, so Cleanuparr can get a proper tile and icon there in one click. And you're right on the rest — your own restart policy survives reboots, and SparkBox updates simply leave your container alone. Try Homarr and see if that covers it.

Follow up, I believe I can set up automatic restarting and updating on my own, but would love dashboard integration in terms of icons and stuff!
