None of the feature like backup/restore will work

So far, they've been working fine. Because, all that's required to be backed up in such cases is the app code. Of course, as the database is external, it is accepted that the backup system is external & independent to Cloudron.

@girish said in Unable to connect to a DigitalOcean managed database:

Not an expert on the apps and I don't know if it's the main purpose. But they work just fine with fresh databases as well where you use it like a nocode/locode app.

Yes, pairing up with external databases is indeed, one of the primary features of these apps. And using a fresh database is just one of the features, and not always preferred.

You might want to state clearly and prominently, particularly in the cases of such apps, that external connections are not allowed/recommended.

The latest package has a higher default memory limit and is more reliable now during initial setup. So please try to install a fresh instance.

@devtron this should be out now. 1.24.1-2 is the correct package.

Same as https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/8451/unable-to-update-automatically-or-manually

@girish Thanks!
That was hasty on my part 😐

Yeah, i've always used the .env setup with a docker-compose install of Directus.

@girish Maybe you could add those steps to the help section?

@girish happy to report that this is working like a charm, thanks a lot!

I'm coming back to this because I'm still confused.

I have a remotely hosted database. I want to build an admin on top of that. That database must continue to be remotely hosted.

Can I build that admin using Directus on Cloudron?

If so, any pointers would be appreciated.

Thank you!

@dev-cb I know you've already swapped, but wish I had seen this a few days ago.

I run a slightly older version of Directus locally, but at least in it...

(1) Repeaters can't reference collections. If you want to reference other collections, you have to create a relationship (like Many-to-Many). Which is not quite as convenient, but a bit more powerful.

(2) As far as I know, nope. For this, you have to manipulate it in Gatsby. I do my manipulation in Elder.JS.

@michaelpope Awesome, thank you so much that gives me a good idea on how to approach it! I'm going to give that a shot and see how things turn out.

@Jeyakumarrathnaselvi said in Search typing issue - page get refresh while typing:

example if i type abcdefgh. it shows only abcdfg. e and h miss while page refresshing

where do I have to test this to reproduce this bug?

@Jeyakumarrathnaselvi Not sure what the issue is. Is there anything in the logs? If you can give me step by step instructions on how to reproduce this (for a person who doesn't know Directus much), I can try to check if this is a packaging bug.

Yes, just bump it to a higher value and be sure to restart the app.

@girish Thanks Girish. It worked. but there is a challenge with directus is they don't have an option to copy the existing layout of directus and make a small change and create it as a new extension. it doesn't help. we should develop from scratch as per them 😞

@girish nice, thanks!

It seems https://github.com/directus/directus/discussions/2832 suggests that database import/export is the way to go. I was hoping they have some sort of import/export data but they don't have it.

@nebulon Alright, got it. Thank you!

@drewhasquestions I guess you placed the extension under /app/data/extensions/hooks ? If so, can you give me something to test with and also let me know how to test it?

@ruihildt thanks for reminding! I updated that PR.

@ruihildt from what I can tell there is no import/export in directus. So, I think db export/import is the way to go.

@ruihildt oh sorry I’ve been super inactive lately since my wedding date draws closer. So much to do! I’ll take a look at that as soon as possible.

Not sure what you're asking...

@timconsidine ah so you’re working on auth. I haven’t done any auth stuff in there yet but I can give it a shot at some point here. As for that script, idk I haven’t used their SDK ever. My use case involved publicly readable data so I just make a basic get request to there using the axios library

@atrilahiji Not exactly the same use case but I am unable to authenticate with the (/auth/login) endpoint using Postman. Unfortunately the Directus docs and youtube channel are not very elaborate so I am hoping for any guidance here 😁

(Please pardon my ignorance - self taught "dev" here 😬)

There is this
Youtube Video

but its 3 + years old where the version used has totally different API endpoints + he uses another API testing tool for Mac...

Not sure what's wrong with my POST request 😕

9c869a58-77a2-4ca5-8fb0-88d3607d75c6-image.png

Line 287: **BOLD** if (!function_exists('create_unknown_project_app')) { /** * Creates a simple Application when the project name is unknown. * * @param string $basePath * @param array $config * @param array $values * * @return Application */ function create_unknown_project_app($basePath, array $config = [], array $values = []) { return create_default_app($basePath, $config, array_merge($values, [ 'notFoundHandler' => function () { return function () { **throw new UnauthorizedException('Unauthorized request');**

Based off of the error / line & function its advising it cant create a new project but what does that have to do with /auth/login?

I'm lost🥴 lol!! - let me know if this should be posted in Support or another post within this section
Any help is appreciated! ✌🖤

so we could request upstream that they allow for customizing the table prefixes to make this less rigid.

Thanks! Fixed.

@girish Thanks. Confirmed Solved.
