## About
[Apache Guacamole](https://guacamole.apache.org/) is a clientless remote desktop gateway that supports standard protocols like VNC, RDP, and SSH. It provides a web-based interface for accessing remote systems without requiring any client software on the user's device. Guacamole acts as a proxy, translating between the web-based frontend and the actual remote desktop protocols.
This addon combines both the Guacamole server (guacd) and web application components with an integrated PostgreSQL database for storing connection configurations and user management. The solution provides a complete remote desktop gateway that can be used to securely access computers and servers from anywhere via a web browser.
This addon is based on the docker image from: https://github.com/abesnier/docker-guacamole
## Configuration
Webui can be found at `<your-ip>:8080` or through the sidebar using Ingress.
The default username is `guacadmin` with password `guacadmin`. It is strongly recommended to change this password immediately after first login.
### Options
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|--------|------|---------|-------------|
| `EXTENSIONS` | str | `auth-totp` | Guacamole extensions to enable (e.g., `auth-totp`) |
| `TZ` | str | | Timezone (e.g., `Europe/London`) |
### Example Configuration
```yaml
EXTENSIONS: "auth-totp"
TZ: "Europe/London"
```
### Database Setup
The addon automatically configures a PostgreSQL database for storing Guacamole configurations, users, and connections. The database files are stored in `/config/postgres` and are automatically created on first startup.
### Custom Scripts and Environment Variables
This addon supports custom scripts and environment variables through the `addon_config` mapping:
- **Custom scripts**: See [Running Custom Scripts in Addons](https://github.com/alexbelgium/hassio-addons/wiki/Running-custom-scripts-in-Addons)
- **Environment variables**: See [Add Environment Variables to your Addon](https://github.com/alexbelgium/hassio-addons/wiki/Add-Environment-variables-to-your-Addon)
## Installation
The installation of this add-on is pretty straightforward and not different in
comparison to installing any other Hass.io add-on.
1. [Add my Hass.io add-ons repository][repository] to your Hass.io instance.
1. Install this add-on.
1. Click the `Save` button to store your configuration.
1. Start the add-on.
1. Check the logs of the add-on to see if everything went well.
1. Go to the web interface and log in with the default credentials (`guacadmin`/`guacadmin`).
1. Change the default password immediately for security.
1. Configure your remote connections through the Guacamole web interface.
## Setup
After installation and first login:
1. **Change Default Password**: Go to Settings → Users → guacadmin and change the password
2. **Create Connections**: Use the web interface to add RDP, VNC, or SSH connections to your remote systems
3. **Configure Extensions**: If using TOTP authentication, configure it in the user settings
4. **User Management**: Create additional users and assign connection permissions as needed
