Cloudron Forum

Not to mention that if your software is closed source you do not need to publish it for all cloudron users if only you want to use it. With a bit of technical knowledge you can build apps yourself (see the link from @mehdi), push it to a private registry and then use the cloudron cli to install it yo your instance.

I am actually hosting a few apps on my Cloudron that I am just building locally (Bitwarden for example before it was available as an official app).

If you don't make your app official you are of course on the hook for maintaining it, but you still benefit from the user management of Cloudron, automatic ssl and backups/easy restore.

https://simply-how.com/free-docker-container-registry lists a few hosted docker registries that offer free private repositories if you don't want to host your own.

Edit: as long as you only need one container you could even use the Docker Hub, as it offers one private image as well.

I can attest that it is definitely NOT a good idea to add more Docker images to a CR box outside of CR. CR assumes it has full use of the box, so, anything additional you add can and possibly will break things 🙂

It proved a decent strategy given I get 50MB/s in a direct server-to-server transfer instead of caching it on my computer at a speed of 3MB/s.

@girish Only Bookstack. Yourls installed just fine.

@spdustin Cloudron doesn't support running any services that are not installed via Cloudron itself. So, it won't co-exist with Dokku.

BTW, you can build and install custom apps on Cloudron as well - https://cloudron.io/documentation/custom-apps/tutorial/ . It's very similar to developing and deploying apps on Heroku.

I have added information here on how to change the graph driver using a systemd drop-in - https://cloudron.io/documentation/storage/#docker-image-location . Please use it at your own risk, since as mentioned, we haven't tested with other graph drivers.

Thanks @girish!

With the above dockerfile cloudron build now succeeds.

I have a longer train ride on friday, maybe I can make something happen with bitwarden during it.
