Docs - Alternative to Notion / Outline with OIDC, GDPR compliant, PDF Export (with template) etc...

I am also following their matrix channel and the app seems to be still under heavy development. My idea was to package it once they remove the beta tag on their website, but maybe we can look into the packaging side already earlier.

v3.4 is out and brings nested pages apparently: https://github.com/suitenumerique/docs/releases/tag/v3.4.0

I don't see any mention of beta on their website nor on their repository.

Indeed looks like they removed all the beta labels by now. Maybe I will get around looking at the package over the weekend.

This looks like a really great piece of software so that would be AMAZING!

This would be fantastic and much appreciated.

Just wondering... did you manage to have a look and make some progress?

Took me a bit but I tried this today morning. The backend aspect is django and quite doable. Frontend unfortunately nextjs which usually blows up the resulting image by GBs, but that is also doable.
Unfortunately it does require a S3 host for media as well as keycloak for its user backend. The latter may work with our OpenID provider, however S3 is a bit of a blocker, unless we package some S3 server within the app

Will see how far we can get here over time.

So I got it to the point now where oidc login works through Cloudron. If anyone is curious and maybe wants to figure out a way how to get around the S3 requirement to create any document in the first place, I pushed all package code to https://git.cloudron.io/playground/docs-app for the moment.

Yes, however so far I couldn't figure a configuration which does not try to use S3. I did ask in the matrix channel, but so far no answer to that. Lets see...

hi folks, I just stumbled upon this again and it seems they just released the 4.0 version this week, including comments (!)
What an amazing piece thing would be to run this on cloudron
-
yes I keep an eye on that also, it seems very good. Only downside why we haven't packaged it already is the hard-dependency on S3 to store docs instead of the filesystem. With minio being in some limbo state recently this is not a great match for the moment for Cloudron, but hopefully this changes in the future

@nebulon I used to like traditional storage more but am seeing more and more the benefits of s3 in some fields. Ente performs in my opinion significantly better than immich, in good parts because of the storage used. I'm also planning on migrating various nextclouds to s3 storage. Even with MinIO not being an option anymore, there are so many vendors for people to choose for an s3 provider from. Just let people set s3 compatible credentials via s3, works great!
