GitHub Integration
GitHub is a version control and collaboration platform. Homarr connects to it to surface repository release information directly on your dashboard.
Widgets & Capabilities
| Widget |
Description |
| Releases |
Displays current version of specified repositories; supports a version regex filter |
- The Releases widget shows latest release tags across one or more GitHub repos
- Version regex lets you filter out pre-releases, RC builds, or match specific semver patterns
Setup
- Go to Integrations Management in Homarr admin
- Add a new integration — select GitHub
- Provide a GitHub personal access token (PAT) with
repo read scope for private repos; public repos may not require auth
- Save and link the integration to the Releases widget on your board
See wiki/homelab/homarr-integrations for the general integration management flow.
Key Takeaways
- GitHub integration exposes a single Releases widget — useful for monitoring self-hosted software versions at a glance
- Version regex filtering allows precise control over which release tags are displayed (e.g. exclude pre-releases)
- Setup follows the standard Homarr integration flow via wiki/homelab/homarr-integrations
- Pairs well with wiki/homelab/homarr-calendar-widget for a unified media + software release overview
