Paperless-NGx released - Community driven version of Paperless-NG
-
As Paperless-NG development has stalled, a quite big group of developers have picked up development and released its first version.
Many updates - should be very easy to transition.
https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngxSee discussion at https://github.com/jonaswinkler/paperless-ng/issues/1599 and https://github.com/jonaswinkler/paperless-ng/issues/1632
Happy to announce the first release of Paperless-ngx a successor to the awesome DMS Paperless-ng. Migrating from -ng is as easy as pointing your docker image to the new location ( ghcr.io/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx:latest ) and re-creating (reminder: backup first).
Paperless-ngx is focused on being community-driven, this release alone has contributions from over 50 (!) people with over 250 commits since the old repository and includes new features, bug fixes and security updates. If you're interested, please check it out (there's a demo now too) and if you're willing to contribute we'd love to have you, we are already working on more features for the next release!More info for the curious:
As many of you know "Paperless-ng" was a very popular fork of the document management system "Paperless". The initial author of -ng, Jonas Winkler, created an amazing project that was eventually designated as the 'official' successor. He maintained a furious development pace for some time but as of this post hasn't been heard from in months. A group of folks dedicated to the software (myself included) decided to try and revive the project and hopefully set it up for a long future. Yes, a similar thing happened with the original Paperless, we are hoping to avoid some of the same mistakes. See jonaswinkler/paperless-ng#1599, jonaswinkler/paperless-ng#1632 and historically the-paperless-project/paperless#711 if you are curious for more about all of this.A demo is available at demo.paperless-ngx.com using login demo / demo. Note: demo content is reset frequently and confidential information should not be uploaded.

@necrevistonnezr Sadly the demo is down, but the initiative sounds good.
I guess it makes most sense to just "upgrade" the existing app then?

Thanks for the heads up. I have started watching the repo and we can switch over once they make a new stable release.

They have released their first version
https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/releases/tag/ngx-1.6.0
Would be awesome to see an updated version of the app. -

@girish how would we even swap out?
-
@doodlemania2 Looking into this since they made a new release now.
-
@girish happy dance!
-
@girish great news !
Wot, no backup/install/restore ?
That's magic !
@timconsidine yes, credit to upstream really
I think atleast the first release was a straight up fork. I am now updating to https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/releases/tag/ngx-1.7.0 -
Very cool - time to play with this little gem I think.
