hello i am fairly new to truenas scale, i came from unraid. i setup my truenas scale server running all truecharts apps as they have the ingress feature built in. i am now looking for a way to switch to something else and keep the ingress feature since truecharts is gone. can someone please help me out,
if you don’t have to install any apps right now and just want to keep the current ones, wait until october for the new release of truenas and then switch to native docker, then you can very easily deploy traefik as a docker app and keep using it. Only difference is that you have to add traefik labels to the compose files of the apps you want to expose. Truecharts apps will still function, there will only be no updates.
Another option ppl already use is nginx proxy manager, but as i’ve switched to a sandbox with traefik i cant help you with a setup since i’ve never done it.

They’ll still function with 24.04. If you upgrade to 24.10, any TrueCharts apps will go away, because the k3s system on which they rely will be going away.
Nothing in iX’ current or near-term future apps is comparable to what TrueCharts did with ingress, where you can check the boxes and fill in appropriate fields to make it work. Their options are either NPM, which you need to manually configure for each app; or Traefik, for which you need to manually add labels to each app to configure it. Both will give you a similar result, but with more manual intervention in each case.
There are other options yet; one of those would be to follow TrueCharts’ migration path. This would set up a VM running TalOS Linux (which can run on your NAS or elsewhere), and migrate your apps and their data to that. FWIW, this is what I’m intending to do.
