Applications

Overview

changedetection.io self-hosted website change monitor on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS by cloudimg. Watch any web page for changes and get notified. Docker container behind nginx on port 80, per-instance login password on first boot, data on a dedicated disk. Apache 2.0 licensed.

Description

changedetection.io is the open source, self-hosted website change monitor. Point it at any web page (prices, stock, terms, competitor pages, job boards, government notices) and it tells you the moment the content changes, showing a diff of exactly what was added or removed and alerting you through email, Slack, Discord, Telegram, webhooks and 80+ Apprise channels. The cloudimg image installs Docker CE from the official Docker repo and runs changedetection.io 0.55.7 as a container bound to loopback 127.0.0.1:5000 behind nginx on port 80 (WebSocket-aware for the live watch list, plus an unauthenticated /healthz). A single shared login password is generated uniquely on first boot; the watch list, history and settings live on a dedicated 20 GiB Azure data disk. Backed by 24/7 cloudimg support.

Key Features

  • changedetection.io 0.55.7 (Apache-2.0) as a pinned Docker container, nginx :80 with an unauthenticated /healthz probe endpoint
  • Unique login password generated per-VM on first boot (no username); change or remove it later in Settings
  • Watch list, change history and settings on a dedicated 20 GiB Azure data disk captured into the image
