Hello I'm Nikhil one of the founders and maintainers of appsmith. I'm so stoked to discover you'll using us and would love to hear any feedback you may have

[timconsidine]

@nikhil-nandagopal welcome !
It would be awesome to have Appsmith on Cloudron.
I see there is a one-click install for CapRover.
If you or one of your team could assist with packaging Appsmith for Cloudron, I'm sure many people would appreciate it.

Just to be clear, this post is in the App Wishlist, which means we want to use Appsmith, not that we are using it.

Hi, I'm the lead maintainer of Appsmith.

I'd be happy to assist you in creating the required configuration files that would allow Appsmith to be hosted for Cloudron users. Please feel free to open a Github PR where we could collaborate and/or join our Discord link for quick support from our team of engineers or the community.

@girish , may I add my vote to that request and draw your attention that the application developers are interested in assisting to create that package for CloudRon, so it probably will be quite an easy thing to add, unless I'm missing something?

[timconsidine]

@mohanarpit : thank you
Not sure how I missed your post

I'm not the best person to initiate the PR as my packaging skills are not up to it. Hopefully someone else here will take you up on it

[potemkin_ai]

@nebulon , is there any chance for AppSmith to make to Cloudron, alongside Baserow?

AppSmith developers are here and ready to assist.

[potemkin_ai]

Raising this up, just in case, @girish , @nebulon - developers of the package are ready to do the integration required and CapRover will receive a very powerful no-code automation tool, alongside n8n

[timconsidine]

@potemkin_ai I hope Appsmith comes to Cloudron (you mention Caprover in our last post, but I think you mean Cloudron)

One request to whoever does the great work on packaging for Cloudron : can a database connection be added in the package?

The Caprover one-click install says "no database connection included" and leaves you to set one up. Kinda defeats the point of a one-click install !!

In the community help for Appsmith app on Caprover, a request has been made for detailed instructions on making the connection, but I don't think it has been done yet.

Caprover is a nice platform, and I use a number of apps there which don't exist on Cloudron. But <cough> the support for apps is far below that on cloudron. Yeah, I know it is community based. But I get the impression some apps (no names mentioned) are packaged and then more or less forgotten about by the packager. Well, I will mention one : Appsmith (no DB) seems to be one.

Hopefully Appsmith on Cloudron will be different.

@timconsidine thanks for the correction - I use both (CapRover and Cloudron) and both are magnifique, but CapRover is more like a self-hosted Heroku for me, while Cloudron is a turn-key solution: install and forget, which is wonderful.

[chris_doudet]

Hi all,
How can we help to see appsmith on cloudron ?

[jdaviescoates]

@chris_doudet it needs to be packaged for Cloudron.

Hopefully between Appsmith developer @mohanarpit & Cloudron @staff they'll make that happen at some point.

But if you want to give it a go yourself, see:

Plus other posts in the App Packaging & Development category

[girish]

@mohanarpit Welcome here! Looks like I missed your post entirely. I will open a GitHub issue to track the packaging.

I don't have much to contribute, but maybe this will help:

@timconsidine is there anything we can do to help progress this? https://github.com/appsmithorg/appsmith/issues/14331

[timconsidine]

@Sam_uk errrr ... probably !
To be honest, this has slipped down my list but would still def be great to have here. Let me try to find some time soon to look at this.
