Seems the proposed method is indeed to just delete the directory:

@girish said in How to deinstall plugins:

I think just deleting the plugin directory inside /app/data/plugins and restarting the app will do it.

@staff that info should be added to the docs 🙂

But, also, does removing the directory actually make Cloudron then edit the app.yml file to remove references to the plugin?

Because that is what is supposed to happen as per:

https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-completely-uninstall-remove-a-plugin/55034/18?u=jdaviescoates

Working on this in parallel and just wanted to dump the status so far.

The reason discourse does not start is the instructions are "git clone" and that checks out the latest plugin code which is sometimes incompatible with the installed discourse version.

https://meta.discourse.org/t/pinning-plugin-and-theme-versions-for-older-discourse-installs/156971 says "You can now include a .discourse-compatibility file at the root of a plugin or theme repository, that designates what to checkout when installing on older Discourse versions."

Very nice, so we have to figure how to checkout the correct version. And Indeed that calendar plugin has moved on to min compat version of 2.9beta of discourse, we are only on 2.8 still.

https://meta.discourse.org/t/migration-failed-on-update-calendar-plugin-to-last-commit/239437 and https://meta.discourse.org/t/cloudron-missing-plugin-pull-compatible-all/244002 suggests there is some plugin:pull_compatible_all rake task. So, we have to figure how to use this in Cloudron.

@girish Thanks for the help.

The plugin does work fine but does not meet my expectations. I thought that, after installing the plugin, somewhere nodebb would have a page dedicated to events in a calendar. What happens is the events appear in a post OK, but there is not dedicated page where all the events happening appear. I mean that I still cannot see this:

alt text

Also, though the notification was set to happen, no notification occured. This might perhaps be because the default setting for checking new events is a long period of time.

I thought there might be a calendar icon or something to click here:

@subven I think the premium package might not need to be installed in addition to the standard version. Also, there is an indefinitely extendible trial period for the premium version, if you are testing it.
It is good to know that NPM is conducive to Cloudron packaging.

@LoudLemur Right, it will be like so:

bundle exec rake plugin:install_gems['discourse-calendar']

@jdaviescoates Thanks incredibly for suggesting this method! The NodeBB plugin works well. A reboot is required and you need to enable the plugin too.

The calendar application is beautiful: full calendar, with some humane licencing.

I don't really know what the calendar-resource Nextcloud plugin does, but it seems after installation, you may have to use the occ tool. This is described at https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/nextcloud/#running-occ-tool

@d19dotca

What I have in mind is like a public calendar/schedule, for example, one for the President.

People could subscribe to it, if schedules changed, they would be pushed from the calendar to subscribers. You could also see the Vice President's schedule alongside it.

@nebulon yeah it looks good doesn't it? 🙂

Although tbh I'm surprised we don't already have https://framadate.org 😛

It looks like Rallly is the best option in this space now.

Especially given that Framadate is now longer maintained:

https://framagit.org/framasoft/framadate/framadate/-/issues/545#note_920869

Go and upvote Rallly!

@loudlemur curious too!

@jdaviescoates said in What Android calendar app are you using?:

Simple Calendar Pro

I'm also using Simple Calendar Pro

@girish Here you go. No answer yet.

If I don't get an answer I might post it in the GitHub repo, as I don't think it's something a user can fix.
