    Hi everyone,

    I need help with the following tasks, specifically for use within Cloudron:

    Packaging a React App:

    I need assistance in setting up a React app to connect with Directus hosted on Cloudron.

    If possible, I’d like a detailed SOP (Standard Operating Procedure) to follow for future setups.

    Setting Up a Node.js or Next.js App with React:

    I want to create a new MySQL database for this app, hosted on Cloudron, and need guidance on setting up and working with this database.

    Again, having an SOP for future reference would be highly appreciated.

    I’m willing to pay for these services or would be grateful if someone could kindly share their expertise and the required SOPs.

    Thanks in advance!

    @girish Oh, I see. Right, unless you install your own torrent tracker, and use the install base swarm to seed images from your own infrastructure at minimal bandwidth usage. No need for docker hub then!

    @ekevu123 Thanks for the report! There was indeed a bug that the dashboard code throws an error when an app does not use any addons. https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/-/commit/e02f3d70649c75c64e4126f1deea45b3456277a0 is the fix.

    @rxlict yes, if the build fails, everything will go pear-shaped. Trying to go ahead will fail.

    The important step is to solve the build issue, which will be in how the Dockerfile is constructed.

    Can you share which app you're trying to package?

    Stick with it : it can be a frustrating process solving the build issues, but once you have success, it's all worth while.

    It is not difficult to find the problematic docker if you look at the log. You can also use a monitoring service https://www.host-tracker.com/en that will detect problems automatically and notify you.

    @timconsidine Are you asking if we plan to integrate it into Cloudron? There are no plans as such.

    It's also a huge savings on disk to have most apps based on the same base image instead of many independent ones adding up to Gigabytes of duplication.

    @saikarthik That seems like a no brainer for WordPress, especially if you're going to have the customer do menu updates themselves.

    There are a plethora of WP resources and ways to get help too, depending on your support model.

    EspoCRM could be set-up to handle that and taking online orders, etc. with additional compelxity.

    On the other hand, if it's not something with online orders, any menu can be made into a super simple static site/page with the menu being a few images or an embeded PDF.

    Depends on how fancy do you want to go.

    @YoMaCloud I still have the old OVA file for this if anyone is interested. It's older linux though so IDK what needs to be updated.
