      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.

            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.

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

                    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

                      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.

                        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.

                            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? πŸ™‚

                              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! πŸ˜„

                                Since I think the LDAP plugin for discourse is readily available it looks like, there is no real technical reason, but mostly we haven't really seen the use-case for a forum type app to have SSO to the Cloudron users (take this forum here as an example, it runs on a Cloudron but only few people have users on that Cloudron). So I guess if the private forum use-case is considered to be useful and valid, then I guess we can add that.

                                      @jdaviescoates Discourse can have multiple authentication modes active simultaneously, yes.

                                        Just to say, again, I really want LDAP support in Discourse! (and every app) πŸ˜›

                                        The use case is that I want to sell managed Cloudron servers and one of the key selling points is Cloudron's awesome LDAP integration.

                                        Sure, we want people to be able to register on public forums too, but all existing uses on the Cloudron should be able to use their existing credentials.

                                        (oh, and I'd still really like to be able to able to filter apps in the app store by which ones have LDAP too)

                                        I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner
