What's coming in Cloudron 7.1

[girish]

@dylightful yup, it's high on the list!

Mail manager role is now implemented. There is a new role:

That user can then manage mailboxes and users. This role does not allow user to update email service status and outbound settings. Only admin can do those.

@jdaviescoates Yeh, I'd really like to trial an internal forum, but lack of LDAP is blocking that.
Also discourse seems to use an unreal about of resources when running.

[humptydumpty]

@bubonicfred flarum would be nice to have on here

[chris]

@girish so I can stop checking the new apps tab every day, any eta on when new apps will start to be published ?

rest of the year in packaging new apps

yes please, APPS!

And the apps of most interest to me: cal, PhotoPrism , supabase, OpenMemex, Odoo, Listmonk, twake, Chaskiq, GrowthBook, Stackstorm, suitecrm

[girish]

@chris Usually, we put them in the announce category - https://forum.cloudron.io/category/1/announcements . Right now, we are trying to get some of our existing apps up to speed since they require some platform changes (like minio, mailtrain, discourse, gitlab).

We are going to spend pretty much rest of the year in packaging new apps

@girish end of the year is upon us, any chance the focus on "packing new apps" by end of year still a thing or did this get delayed? (if delayed, any eta?)

It's now possible to expose the LDAP server:

[girish]

Some apps refuse to log to stdout/stderr or are very hard to configure. We have added a new manifest property called logPaths where the package specify an array of log file names - https://docs.cloudron.io/packaging/manifest/#logpaths . This way users don't need to open a web terminal and find the log files inside the container.

[nebulon]

We have added CIFS/samba seal encryption support https://manpages.debian.org/testing/cifs-utils/mount.cifs.8.en.html#seal

SMB v3 on the storage server is required. Hetzner storage boxes support this by now.

Which means that now the admin/operator of an app has a button in the settings of an app to open the files specified in the manifest?

It's tailored for logging at this point. When you open log window, it will tail -f those files in addition to stdout/stderr. Though, your idea of having "bookmarks" might be a good idea for a File manager as well.

Ah yes, that makes absolute sense. For a not Cloudron related project I am currently building a container that outputs its main logging to the container and then writes some more verbose stuff (webserver access logging and mail.log) into files. Here such "bookmarks" would be useful.

[girish]

multiple domain support for apps is implemented by httpPorts.

The new minio uses this feature to ask for the api domain separately now at install time:

As always, you can change these in the Location view:

At some point, mailtrain v2, cryptpad (?) etc can use the above feature.

@girish Oh wow! I could see this with https://appwrite.io too. Exciting!

[jdaviescoates]

@girish said in What's coming in Cloudron 7.1:

mailtrain v2, cryptpad

Both of those would be great!

[chris]

@girish can you please comment ?

@chris Reminds me of people who ask a question somewhere and consistently post with "bump". Its a 2 person team chill out.

[chris]

Hi @atridad, yes i remember those days where we would BUMP things to the top, and I know to @girish and @nebulon are hard at work, prioritizing effort as they can.. and thanks for your hard work and contribution to the community too. I enjoy cloudron and happy to be a long time supporter... This is in fact a bump, about a lingering question- so you're perspective!

[nebulon]

We also added user import/export as well as mailbox import/export. This is mostly for faster onboarding of larger user and mailbox sets. The mailbox import is not actually importing the emails, but creates and associates the email addresses to users.
