Checking Apps compatibility before update
-
Hi there,
i have a question about Nextcloud Apps and Nextcloud Updates.
The internal update routine checks compatibility for installed apps. For Cloudron update routine I don't find something like that. I guess Cloudron only distributes updates as soon as all featured Nextcloud Apps are compatible.
I hear Cloudron saying "We do not recommend installing apps in Nextcloud unless absolutely required"
So if "absolutely required", checking the compatibility is up to me?How do you handle it? Whats your update routine?
I thought maybe its possible to use the internal updater to check compatibility. So i switched the update channel, only to find out, the internal updater wants to update to 27.1.6 while Cloudron updates to 28.0.2. So I still don't see compatibility
Further more, now my Update channel is switched and it is not possible to switch back to "cloudron" in that interface. Is this an issue at all? Does this have an affect? Is it back to "cloudron" after update via Cloudron?

@SolarSimon We basically just wait for 2-3 weeks giving apps sometime to make themselves compatible for the next nextcloud release. Beyond that, we don't have any compatibility checks. You have to disable nextcloud app updates (on Cloudron) and then check compat yourself and click update whenever you think all your apps are ready.
