Owncast – An open-source, self-hosted live streaming server

@LoudLemur so I think this comes under "installing a custom app already packaged"

command line / terminal usage :

1. download the contents of the app package you want and extract to its own directory/folder
2. change into that folder
3. make sure you have cloudron CLI installed
4. make sure you have Docker Desktop installed and running
5. make sure you have a docker repo (seems you do from your answer)
6. at command line :
   docker build -t <your_repo_name>/<app_name>:<app tag> .
   you should know the first 2 and you can make up anything for the tag (or even omit it)
   remember the trailing full stop .
7. at command line :
   docker push <your_repo_name>/<app_name>:<app tag>
8. at command line :
   cloudron install --image <your_repo_name>/<app_name>:<app tag>
9. you will be prompted for location : e.g. app.domain.tld

If packaging was good and you have docker and cloudron cli installed, and you downloaded the source directly, this should go smoothly !

@timconsidine yeah what Tim said

@doodlemania2
yesterday i tried the app package. two quick questions:

• is it a typo? manifest defines port 1937 the app is preconfigured on port 1935.
• did you install the app on a Cloudron 7.1.x with (or without ipv6)? I had no way to connect to the instance via obs. Tried it with different ports and configurations.

@luckow I'm on 7.1
Yes, that's a typo, we should change that! Probably why your connection from OBS isn't working

@doodlemania2 you know I didn’t see you had a copy of my old repo at all. I made a new one on my GitHub lol. It’s not much different tbh.

@atridad can you send link and i'll update and push with credit!

This looks like quite an easy package! I am just cleaning this up at https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/owncast-app, will publish tomorrow.

@girish excellent! You're on a roll! Keep going

[girish]

I have published this as unstable now.

@girish Nice! Small thing but could you remove my email from the manifest? That email in particular is old and the domain no longer exists. That or change it to atridad@icloud.com. Honestly not sure who should be there for the official package.

[girish]

@atridad Ah, will do. That field is mostly unused anyway.
