Maurice 7da0080557 docs(wiki): bring the wiki in line with 4.0.0 (#2034)
* docs(wiki): correct the install and operations pages for 4.0.0

Quick Start passed docker an empty ENCRYPTION_KEY: an assignment prefix is not
expanded on the same command line, so the server silently generated its own key
instead of taking the one the page told you to set. The tag examples pinned to
the 3.x line, the documented tmpfs size did not match the shipped compose file,
and several .env values were described as reaching the container when compose
never interpolates them.

* docs(wiki): match the MCP reference to the registered surface

The scope table was missing the whole Collections group and the totals said 27
scopes across 13 groups where the code registers 29 across 14. The Cloudflare
link on the setup page pointed at an anchor on its own page instead of the
heading on Troubleshooting.

* docs(wiki): correct the plugin and admin pages

Three links to Plugin-Development carried a .md suffix, which does not resolve on
the wiki. The admin pages described tabs, permissions and storage behaviour that
had moved on.

* docs(wiki): bring the feature pages back in line with the app

Costs still documented the old panel, where categories could be added, renamed,
reordered and deleted; they are fixed now and the panel is a day-grouped ledger
with settlements. Trip sharing, journeys, maps, packing, reservations and the
account pages had all drifted in the same way.

* docs(wiki): cover the pages the first pass did not reach

The MCP catalog listed 168 of the 201 registered tools; the settlement tools and
rate_place were missing here and the Collections family from the addon page.
Several resource rows claimed a trips:* scope where the handler asks for
trips:read.

* docs(wiki): tighten the corrections a review picked apart

The audit-log resource is the row id, not the credential id; an admin password
reset does not bump password_version the way the page implied; and a few of the
new paragraphs described behaviour more confidently than the code supports.

* docs(wiki): fix what a last read-through caught

Costs shows every figure in your display currency, not the trip's, and an
expense with no payer still counts against the members it is split between.
Studio's cutoff is a 1024px viewport rather than phones alone, and the
Integrations tab is gated on the providers an admin has configured.

* docs(wiki): the last few the review caught

A passkey satisfies the MFA policy everywhere except the WebSocket handshake,
which still asks for TOTP, so a passkey-only account under that policy gets no
live updates. Mobile optimizes a day from two places, not three. The ctx.db row
carried an unescaped pipe that split the table, and the Backups table linked
with a wiki link whose pipe did the same.

Install: Unraid

Install TREK on Unraid via Community Applications or a direct template import.

Prerequisite

Docker must be enabled in Unraid (Settings → Docker → Enable Docker: Yes).

Install via Community Applications

  1. Open the Apps tab in Unraid.
  2. Search for TREK.
  3. Click Install on the TREK result.

If the app does not appear, you can install directly from the template URL. In Docker → Add Container, paste the template URL:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/liketrek/TREK/main/unraid-template.xml

Template Fields

The Unraid template exposes the following fields in the container UI:

Ports & Paths

Field Container path Default host value
Web UI Port 3000/tcp 3000
Data /app/data /mnt/user/appdata/trek/data
Uploads /app/uploads /mnt/user/appdata/trek/uploads

Core Variables (always visible)

Variable Default Notes
ENCRYPTION_KEY (empty) Set on first install. Generate with openssl rand -hex 32 in the Unraid terminal.
TZ UTC Timezone for logs, reminders, and scheduled tasks (e.g. Europe/Berlin)
ALLOWED_ORIGINS (empty) Comma-separated origins for CORS and email notification links, e.g. https://trek.example.com
APP_URL (empty) Public base URL; required when OIDC is enabled (must match the redirect URI registered with your IdP)
ADMIN_EMAIL admin@trek.local Email for the first admin account (first-boot only; no effect once any user exists). Pre-filled by the template — must be set together with ADMIN_PASSWORD, otherwise both are ignored.
ADMIN_PASSWORD (empty) Password for the first admin account (first-boot only). Must be set together with ADMIN_EMAIL. If either is omitted, TREK creates the account with email admin@trek.local and a random password printed to the container log.

Advanced Variables

Additional variables (PORT, NODE_ENV, LOG_LEVEL, TREK_WIKI_DIR, DEFAULT_LANGUAGE, FORCE_HTTPS, HSTS_INCLUDE_SUBDOMAINS, TRUST_PROXY, COOKIE_SECURE, ALLOW_INTERNAL_NETWORK, SESSION_DURATION, SESSION_DURATION_REMEMBER, all OIDC variables, MCP_RATE_LIMIT, MCP_MAX_SESSION_PER_USER, DEMO_MODE, UNSPLASH_ACCESS_KEY) are available under Advanced View in the template editor.

Setting the Encryption Key

Generate a key in the Unraid terminal (Tools → Terminal):

openssl rand -hex 32

Copy the output into the ENCRYPTION_KEY field before starting the container for the first time. If you skip this, TREK auto-generates a key and saves it to data/.encryption_key — your data is still protected, but you should record that file in your backups.

After Install

Once the container starts, open your browser at:

http://<unraid-ip>:<port>

On first boot, TREK automatically creates an admin account. The credentials are printed to the container log — check Docker → trek → Log in the Unraid UI. If you set both ADMIN_EMAIL and ADMIN_PASSWORD, those values are used; otherwise the email is admin@trek.local and a random password is generated.
