Directus - Headless CMS and data driven framework, open source alternative to Contentful

[girish]

@murgero Done, thanks. Let me know when the repo is public. Have you managed to write some tests for the packages, this will greatly speed up getting it published.

@girish I don't really know what you mean by tests - since i've never had an app published yet. I'll setup a repo on cloudron's gitlab tonight to prep it for packaging.

@girish I have the public repo up now: https://git.cloudron.io/murgero/directus

@murgero Thanks! About the tests, I just made a post about it - https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/2850/writing-automated-tests-for-packages . We can discuss there but essentially that is what stops us from pushing out all these packages.

I am looking into cleaning up @murgero 's package and writing tests - https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/directus-app . Looks like it also needs automated setup of mysql credentials etc but I was able to build and install the itself.

Looking forward to this one for all the reasons mentioned above.

I've got a fair few apps in mind I can create data structures for to share the SQL dumps on GitLab as a quick way to develop apps for any stack based on standard accounting & ERP principles .

It's ideal for project managers for drafting app designs with data-schema best practice without getting hands dirty with SQL and the common user/roles/permissions/data-types stuff.

@girish Thank you @girish - I know I have been slacking on finishing the testing and stuff, I had a death in the family and work is really busy these days.

@murgero Sorry to hear that bud, can very much sympathise, it's been a tough year.

[girish]

@murgero my condolences. Your work is already a good starting point though to get the package going, thanks for that!

Thank you all for the good wishes. It means a lot coming from everyone here. This is an amazing community and I hope we can all strive to keep moving forward and doing better!

I have published Directus as unstable app now.

[marcusquinn]

I'll give it a good test on a couple of instances this week. Freeeedom to create. Thank you so much!

[murgero]

I am very excited to see this app finally come to life!

Well done on packaging this, @murgero

I think we could benefit from an additional category in the Cloudron supported applications: CMS (Content Management Systems). We also have Joomla on the way, Grav and Strapi is requested.
