HumHub - social network software
-
@girish oh I could. The issue is the DB doesn’t have the tables needed to run setup commands until the UI setup is finished. So if it’s in startup, it would not work on first install and require a restart to trigger the DB updates.
@atridad I did try a restart of the app just now to same result. If you'd like/are interested, happy to let you at the server to play?
-
I took another look at the package and it seems besides the async db setup done via cron, we also need to call a few upgrade steps to ensure updatability as mentioned in https://docs.humhub.org/docs/admin/updating/
Further I think it makes more sense to pre-setup humhub via a localhost curl script before the healthcheck succeeds to avoid this db setup race and make it useful immediately.
Hopefully I have more time next week to get this going.

@nebulon So question:
https://github.com/atridadl/cloudron-humhub-app
I suspect I know the answer but I want to make sure. If an update to an app requires that a new folder is copied from /app/code to /app/data and then symlinked, would this require a new app rather than an upgrade? It doesn't seem to be updating correctly when I try with @Sam_uk 's environments. My last resort is another set of new apps and DB migrations from old to new apps but I'd like to avoid doing things like this if possible.
Thanks for looking into this BTW. Having this in the App Store removes the need for @Sam_uk to have to wait for me to manually update for him (I have a lot going on so it takes me a while at times). Also this has to be one of the apps I've had the hardest time packaging cleanly.

@atridad I was able to make progress as well - got installation to work but did not get the ability to create an admin so I was just a regular user. Will try again!
@atridad or indeed anyone
What would I need to edit in https://github.com/atridadl/cloudron-humhub-app to build Humhub from my fork of Humhub?
-
@atridad @nebulon Have you made any progress with Humhub? I'd really like it in the app store. I may be able to fund this work if you can let me know what needs doing and what the cost is.
@Sam_uk I haven’t heard anything from the cloudron side of things. I will be continuing to update the HumHub version on my repo until it is picked up. The way account creation and SMTP settings are done might make it tough. @nebulon what are your thoughts on the way the app handles config? From what I can tell there is no way to programmatically configure the site, which makes things tougher.

-
@atridad @nebulon or I will take a look at how to proceed with this when we find a bit more time.
-
@girish have you had a chance to look at this? Happy to pay for a bit of development time if that helps it happen sooner.
-
Unfortunately we still had no time to further look into this. I just tried to build and install the current state from @atridad but it seems the basic installation is still missing some steps to produce a working app. Also it is now unclear what the status is, as the upstream package repo is archived. Probably took too long for us to get to it
-
Out of curiosity, why are updates a pain through Cloudron when using the cli tool to build and deploy the package compared to other deployment options?
-
So how to interpret - this is dead in the water, and not coming to Cloudron? For a long time I really wished it was there.
