  • Cloudron OIDC with SPA Frontend - PKCE Configuration Missing?

    We use https://github.com/panva/node-oidc-provider internally and that is supposed to support PKCE. Not sure yet how to use it to test what this needs. Until that is working, the options are a keycloak instance or a small backend which gives the SPA some kind of session while handling the oidc login bits.

    @jdaviescoates cheers! Well yes, basically people get a managed Cloudron with proper onboarding, the difference is the selection of preinstalled apps (or none for the Cloudron package), the distinction is mostly for marketing purposes.

    Good on them for this initiative. Despite web browser now being fundamental functionality, the offerings from all the others are frankly pretty poor, bloated dinosaurs. Look forward to their first usable release

  • Suggestion: Official "Packaged by Cloudron" Badge

    tags publish badge quality

    An automatically created badge from Cloudron's perspective: App Verification and Registry After the app is reviewed and approved, Cloudron adds it to its verified apps registry, which includes metadata like app ID, name, version, and verified status. Badge Graphic Creation Cloudron prepares a badge image (SVG or PNG) showing "Packaged by Cloudron" or a similar verified label. This badge image is hosted on Cloudron's servers or CDN. Generate Standardized Markdown Snippet Cloudron creates a standardized Markdown snippet that developers can embed into their README or website. The snippet typically looks like this: [![Packaged by Cloudron](https://cloudron.example.com/badges/appid.svg)](https://cloudron.example.com/apps/appid) Here, the image URL links to the dynamically generated badge image, and the anchor URL links to the app's Cloudron info page. Probably this can be done here, taking comentario as an random example: https://www.cloudron.io/store/app.comentario.cloudronapp.html Badge Hosting and Dynamic Updates The badge image URL is managed by Cloudron, allowing automatic updates if badge styles, wording, or verification states change. All instances where the badge is embedded will reflect updates immediately. Developer/User Integration Cloudron provides the app developer or user with this snippet along with clear instructions to paste it into their GitHub README or other documentation. Automatic Badge Rendering When README files or web pages load, the badge image is fetched from Cloudron's servers and displayed in place, confirming official packaging and build trust visually. This automated generation and hosting process allows Cloudron to centrally manage trust badges and makes it very easy for app maintainers to add a professional verification mark to their repos without manual image management or styling.
  • OpenLiteSpeed app (OLSMP stack?)

    Ha! Yes, and no. Let me explain: The one plugin to use, which is entirely free(!), is Litespeed caching for WordPress. It works regardless of you running OLS too, bar the direct tie-in to the caching service. With that and Cloudflare caching, I get to nearly 100% on pagespeed.web.dev, even for crappy sites with terrible themes. With OLS as a stack, I can probably get a lot more websites onto the same server without impacting on performance. Probably around 40% more according to some research I did. Interestingly, plain WordPress, with its stock themes and without Redis and Cloudflare get's nearly 100% on pagespeed.web.dev. At least in my testing, it suggests that the quality of the theme and plugins in use play a critical role. If only customers paid attention to that and spent money wisely with decent web devs instead of buying dodgy themes and plugins ;D What's your experience? Why do you want OLS?

    @3246 I spotted you just upvoted my post above where I asked. I said in How to setup Hetzner Storage Box using SSHFS: People who are backing up to a Hetzner Storage Box using SSHFS - how did you get it set-up? Thanks! Here is what worked for me: https://forum.cloudron.io/post/96271 Once I worked out how to create the new key pairs it was all relatively straightforward.

    I use Redmine for that. It looks a bit outdated at times,but it does the job better than most other solutions and is rock solid. A client of mine has build a 1000 beds hospital with Redmine as the PMS,so there is that.

    @timconsidine Important point, though for the so-called Kleinunternehmer in Germany there are no formal accounting requirements so it is sufficient to have a record of invoices, payments received and expenses when it comes to entering the figures in the tax return. Most decent billing software does reporting. @chmod777 Let us know what you decide to go with.

    @josephcosta I agree with you and I don't like ASP.NET because I am not familiar with it. But however, if the developer knows his stuff, I am okay with it. @necrevistonnezr I agree with you, index and search for attachments would be great. Maybe it will be added sometime later? I also think the fuzzy search in Openarchiver is something I miss in Mailarchiver.

    @humptydumpty That's something I'd like to look into too, although I have a feeling the only thing that can really work its magic there is the Bayesian learning, so running the SpamAssassin learn commands. I've been running a script (with the help of ChatGPT, lol) like one below in case this helps as I find the Bayesian learning in Cloudron seems to be really manual or inconsistent at running (I think they've admitted that too in a post I saw somewhere the other month), and it's improved IMO with running this often. Personally I run this manually for now just because I wanted to make sure it was working, but I'll probably consider throwing this in a cron job soon enough. sudo docker exec -ti mail /bin/bash Run this script in the mail container: nohup bash -c ' MAILDIR="/app/data/vmail"; SPAMD_DIR="/app/data/spamd"; for user in $(ls "$MAILDIR"); do MAILBOX="$MAILDIR/$user/mail"; BAYES_PATH="$SPAMD_DIR/$user"; mkdir -p "$BAYES_PATH"; chown -R cloudron:cloudron "$BAYES_PATH"; chmod 700 "$BAYES_PATH"; echo "🔄 Training SpamAssassin for $user..." | tee -a /app/data/spamd/train.log; # Train spam from .Spam and .Junk folders (including subfolders) find "$MAILBOX/.Spam" "$MAILBOX/.Junk" -type d -name "cur" 2>/dev/null | while read folder; do echo "📂 Training SPAM from: $folder" | tee -a /app/data/spamd/train.log; sa-learn --spam --dbpath "$BAYES_PATH" --dir "$folder" | tee -a /app/data/spamd/train.log; done # Train ham from Inbox and Archive, but EXCLUDE Junk, Spam, Trash, Sent, and Drafts find "$MAILBOX" -type d -name "cur" 2>/dev/null | grep -Ev "/(\.Trash|\.Deleted Messages|\.Sent|\.Sent Messages|\.Drafts|\.Junk|\.Spam)/" | while read folder; do echo "📂 Training HAM from: $folder" | tee -a /app/data/spamd/train.log; sa-learn --ham --dbpath "$BAYES_PATH" --dir "$folder" | tee -a /app/data/spamd/train.log; done echo "✔ Completed training for $user! BAYES files stored in $BAYES_PATH" | tee -a /app/data/spamd/train.log; done; echo "🎉 SpamAssassin training completed for all mailboxes." | tee -a /app/data/spamd/train.log; ' > /app/data/spamd/train.log 2>&1 & It creates that train.log file and writes all the output to it so you can see it learning across all mailboxes for the Inbox and Archive folder as ham and the Junk/Spam folder as spam for all users. It's neat to see it saying it learned ham from 34 messages or something like that for each mailbox, haha. I think my latest spam rules are doing well the past week, so I'll likely be posting them here soon.

    If you're up for a challenge, look into the forum for sysbox which allows for stronger docker isolation so you can experiment with portainer in a more isolated container on Cloudron.
