Scriptable widget that displays your Uberspace's disk usage ("quota").
Huh? I host a bunch of stuff on Uberspace, an excellent German shared hosting provider that's pay-what-you-want, yet provides many more features than competing products. Some of the projects I host there – various Mastodon bots, above anything else – generate a bunch of data that I regularly-but-not-frequently need to clean up manually. To make sure I don't forget about that, this widget helps me keep tabs on disk usage.
Any setup required?
Sure, Scriptable needs to learn about your Uberspace's disk usage, after all! For boring reasons described in a comment within it, that's done through uberspace-quota.php, which – contrary to what you'd sensibly expect – isn't supposed to be accessed from the web, but should rather be run via the command line every once in a while. Internally, it executes the quota command to retrieve disk usage statistics.
So, push uberspace-quota.php onto your Uberspace (your home directory will do). Then, configure a cron job that'll periodically run the PHP script and write its output (a JSON value) to a file Scriptable can access via the web. Something along these lines, adjusting for the paths on your Uberspace (the 8-59/10 bit ensures that the script doesn't run at the top of the hour when – presumbly – a whole bunch of carelessly scheduled cron jobs go off):
8-59/10 * * * * php /home/username/uberspace-quota.php > /var/www/virtual/username/domain.com/path/to/uberspace-quota.jsonWhat's left to do in Scriptable?
Barely more than for any other Scriptable widget! Download uberspace-quota.js and uberspace-quota-background.png and place them in the "Scriptable" directory in your iCloud Drive. Once it's synced to your devices, run the script once and enter the URL to your generated uberspace-quota.json in the dialog that should've popped up. Then, back on your homescreen, go into jiggle mode and create a new Scriptable widget of your preferred size (although I've designed this widget for the 2×2 size only). Tap it to assign the relevant script to it, then wait a second for it to complete its first update.
Where's the configuration file? Scriptable exposes a library directory – it's not accessible via the Files app, nor is it synced in any way, I believe. That seemed like a sensible place to store the JSON object containing the single configuration option. And that's also why there's an option to delete the configuration file though the script – there's seemingly no other way of getting to it.
