@robi It seems the dev isn't interested in learning new things and simply expects a PR.
I think that's expected. Upstream authors generally have way too many things on their hands. My impression is that in most cases, the "packaging" is usually done by people outside the project. Not even talking about Cloudron here but things like packaging for ubuntu/redhat/centos or some other platform. The Dockerfile's that are usually in upstream repos are also mostly targeted at development rather than deployment.

@girish True, especially about authors being inundated .... although I suspect that them saying "it's targeted at development" is usually cop-out for something like :
-
"I'm a developer, don't expect me to finish things completely, it works here"
-
"I'm a developer, don't expect me to write documentation, it's obvious if you read the code"
-
"I'm a developer, I develop things, I moved on to something else"
I'm not being rude (well, not intentionally). It's just my experience of running software projects and a software house for 15 years. Love developers, awesome people, wish I could do what they do, but <guesstimate> 70% fall in one of the above categories.

@robi this is normal! please be nice to open source devs, they do a lot of work for free. It's understandable they don't want to learn a packaging system they don't use.
-
Has anyone looked at getting this packaged?
Something has come up that would make this very useful right now.
@robi I think the idea was to wait for 1.0. My plan was to mention the app dev group once that happens
-
Currently 4 issues away from 1.0
-
Now is a time I could really use a self hosted form app, so this came up again.
Has anyone managed to package this, even in unofficial form?
@atridad ?
-
Form building is very useful. There is some form building integrated into Odoo and its fork, Flectra. Both of these applications have been requested:
https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/1403/flectra-erp-and-cms-an-open-source-alternative-do-odoo/11
https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/1403/flectra-erp-and-cms-an-open-source-alternative-do-odoo/11
Odoo/Flectra integrate the form building for recruitment into other modules, for example ones related to recruitment or contacts.

@robi Think your options here right now are Wordpress or Lime Survey.

Or Nextcloud forms
-
they finally pushed v1.0.0 2 days ago, but their focus shifted to a docker-only deployment, not sure if this is going to fly with cloudron
-
@msbt doesn't look like https://github.com/ohmyform/ohmyform/blob/master/Dockerfile is hard to adapt to Cloudron, no?

1.0.3 came out a couple of weeks ago:
https://github.com/ohmyform/ohmyform/releases/tag/1.0.3There is also a demo here:
https://omf-demo.herokuapp.com/Although it doesn't seem to actually work for me, perhaps because it's still running 1.0.0-alpha
Also spotted these docker examples:
https://github.com/ohmyform/ohmyform/tree/master/examplesOh and these on Docker Hub:
https://hub.docker.com/u/ohmyform -

I tried the demo now but hardly anything seems to work on it.

If only there was an easy way to try out the docker container.

@robi I just tried in a separate VPS.
From what I can tell, it lacks some basic things: you cannot reorder the form fields. The UI also has some strange refresh issues (deleting form does not reflect the list). We should probably wait for this one to mature a bit more.
Is anyone else using this outside Cloudron already?
