changedetectionInstalling it
Open the dashboard, go to Apps, press Add on it and apply the change. Or from a terminal on the box:
sudo homebox install changedetectionWhere to open it
| Service | Port | First login |
|---|---|---|
| Change Detection | :5000 | No account by default. Set a password under Settings if this box is not only yours. |
Open it at your box's address with that port — the dashboard links to it directly once it is running.
Good to know
- The browser sidecar is what makes it work on modern sites — anything rendered by JavaScript is invisible to a plain fetch
- Select the exact element with the visual picker rather than watching the whole page, or you get an alert every time an ad rotates
- It can notify through Gotify, so a price drop can reach your phone without email
