It integrates easily with Patreon and Wordpress. It's a must have.

Hi

Anyone know if there is any progress making Discourse to run in Cloudron?

@stoccafisso, I haven't heard of any progress with Discourse for Cloudron, but as soon as it comes, I'll be using and recommending Cloudron alot more! We need more up votes on the top post.

[clouddaz]

At this stage Discourse is the second most upvoted App on the wishlist. Is there any estimate on when this might start to be developed for integration into Discourse? What is Cloudron's view on this?

[avatar1024]

Yes it would be great to know if there is any update / timescale for Discourse on Cloudron

[clouddaz]

Me too!

I think there is a rather large audience waiting for Discourse availability on Cloudron.

I am adding to the voices here, I'm simply holding out on Discourse for cloudrom, we already use it for WP+email and discourse is the last app we need to move over (and would make it worthwhile to start paying for it too!)

I think the last time we looked at it, it was very hard to dockerize. Discourse has it's own build system which creates docker containers out of some script. I have to re-check what the current status of their deployment is.

[girish]

I have started working on this now - https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/discourse-app . It doesn't work at all yet. Will leave a note here when it's ready for testing.

@girish Very exciting! Please look into LDAP integration some time.

[girish]

@yusf Do you need LDAP integration because it is a private discussion board?

[yusf]

@girish Yes.

[ruihildt]

Also looking forward to try it (I've actually installed it, but I get errors sending emails), mainly because I need push notification for a forum, and I can't get that working on iOS with nodebb. (only works on android)

Even then, I'll have to use an external service for iOS: https://meta.discourse.org/t/pushover-notifcations/119258

[girish]

Discourse is now published! There's docs at https://cloudron.io/documentation/apps/discourse/ . As this is the first release, some parts might be a bit rough, please feel free to open separate topics for any issues.

@ruihildt The email sending issue should be fixed now.

[yusf]

Whaaat! I’m hyped! Did you include LDAP?

You should advertise this in a major way when stable enough as I imagine some forum admins will be very interested.

Do you intend on packaging it with LDAP support included, eventually maybe?

I just came here to ask the exact same question! (assuming, as I am, that this would mean Single Sign On would work? I think SSO is one of the killer features of Cloudron and I'd love it if it were available for even more apps!).

Is there are possibility of this happening @girish @nebulon or is there some technical reason why in practice it's not really possible and hence why it wasn't done in the first place?

[jdaviescoates]

Oh, and the other thing I came here to ask was whether or not it's possible to install Discourse plugins on Cloudron hosted Discourse?

Because one (well, two) of the things I really like about Discourse are the Discourse Events and Discourse Locations plugins (you can see them both in action at e.g. https://community.coops.tech and https://bettermedia.uk )

So it's great to know that it is possible to install plugins on Cloudron hosted Discourse!
