I would love to see this app on Cloudron. As of this reply, the project seems to be in an intact and active state.

Just stumbled on this one, to see it is already in the suggested list.
It has also third party android app and development is still ongoing regularly.

There's a docker for this: https://firefly-iii.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation/docker.html

I think I've managed to get a basic version of Firefly III packaged! You can find the Git repo here. The main thing to note is that the LDAP connection doesn't quite work with Cloudron's system yet. @girish @nebulon I'm hoping one of you can help look through this and see if we can get a proper connection going? If we can link up the LDAP system, I'm happy to write some tests for this app so we can publish it to the Cloudron App Store.

There's also a no-ldap branch available which will let users register their own accounts on the app, not trying to use LDAP at all. If we can't get a successful LDAP connection going, then I can write tests for this version instead for the App Store.

@thetomester13 Thanks for packaging this! I gave this a shot now and managed to get ldap login to work as well. We do need a Cloudron side change though to get the ldap login working - https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/commit/602b335c0e96c9ef58ee39971b452ccd437c5c8f

I will try to push my LDAP changes to the package tomorrow. But the settings I used are:

# LDAP connection settings
ADLDAP_CONTROLLERS=172.18.0.1
ADLDAP_PORT=3002
ADLDAP_TIMEOUT=5

ADLDAP_USE_TLS=false

@girish excellent, thanks for helping make LDAP work properly! When can we expect the Cloudron box package fix to be released? When it is I can update the Firefly Cloudron app and start working on tests. Cheers!

@thetomester13 Oh man, if this goes live on Cloudron it'll make the start of the year AMAZING! Thank you all for working on it!

murgero

This is an exciting package to get rolling. I have been wanting this for a while but never got around to packaging it myself. Great work!

girish

@thetomester13 I have moved the repo to https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/firefly-iii-app. It contains the LDAP fix. You should have permissions to the repo as well.

As for the box release, that will take a week (hopefully next week). For the moment, you can just apply https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/commit/602b335c0e96c9ef58ee39971b452ccd437c5c8f by hand. Just edit /home/yellowtent/box/src/ldap.js on the server and make the above change. Then sudo systemctl restart box.

I have published this app in unstable now.

murgero

@girish I do not see this app in unstable on my end, are we waiting until the next cloudron release?

girish

Oops, indeed. Forgot to mention that this requires Cloudron 4.4.4. You can try this on the demo cloudron which is already updated to 4.4.4 (https://my.demo.cloudron.io - username and password is cloudron).

thetomester13

@girish sweet, I was able to get the app up and running with the change to the LDAP file, going to start working on some tests now! I'll update this thread with progress.

murgero

Has anyone figured out how to get Spectre working properly? Once I do the initial import (which works VERY well) it fails subsequent imports.

timbo

Works quite well but i have the "locales"-problem on Cloudron.
https://github.com/firefly-iii/help/wiki/Missing-locale-packages

Installing them manually does not help(?). Is this a Cloudron-thing?

thetomester13

@murgero I actually haven't used Firefly before this (was waiting for the 'perfect' setup..). Do subsequent imports happen automatically? Or does the user need to trigger it? I know there's a cron that's supposed to run once per day and I believe that's set up properly in the CloudronManifest, but not sure how to test that that is doing its job properly.

@timbo when did you last pull the project's code? That was an issue originally, but should have been solved with some more recent updates.
