standard notes - storage server component

[thetomester13]

@fbartels thanks for following up on this!

I've gotten off the idea of StandardNotes as well after reading some other bad experiences using this system. I'm currently using Joplin which isn't 100% what I'm looking for, but does work quite well. Also it looks like a Joplin server might make it to the light of day which might help stabilize it a bit further.

@thetomester13 looks like @klawitterb has packaged it https://forum.cloudron.io/post/34357

Is there any possibility of self-hosting the web app. https://github.com/standardnotes/app

I don't know if things have improved since this was first raised, but I'm having trouble finding a self-hosted encrypted note taking app.

Joplin Server is licensed for non-commercial use, and is not a web app.

Something else that looks promising is notesnook, but is not yet available to self-host and was just recently made open source.

I would l like someone to implement this, I am happy to do the money incentive. @appdev

[r369]

@r369 anyone can help to implement it? Is one of the greatest note taking app that I ever seen!

@r369 Have you looked at Joplin?

Looks like standard notes now only requires 4 containers in a standard docker-compose installation:

• standardnotes/server
• localstack/localstack:1.3
• mysql:8
• redis:6.0-alpine

Since cloudron supports the last two natively that bodes well. I guess the main porting task would be to merge the standardnotes/server and localstack images and run them together with a supervisor.

It seems the price is 39/year. Very reasonable!

[lukas]

so a subscription is definitely needed?

I am not familiar with the self-hosted version, I only use the hosted version.
On the hosted version, paying a fee unlocks extra facilities and plugins, but it is (or used to be) possible to use the basic version free.
But maybe it is different for self-hosted and licence is required for even basic usage.

[fbartels]

They had this loophole in the past that if you host the extensions that were otherwise paywalled yourself (since they were still oss) that you could use these. But with the introduction of this subscription that loophole got closed as far as i know.

[farmerjo]

@girish Indeed, very reasonable. Look forward to having this app added to Cloudron.

[TheMeerkat]

I would also greatly appreciate the addition!

[r369]

me too, I would love to have this app in cloudron

It does seem you get the basic functionality, but to "unlock" everything, you would need to purchase an offline plan.

*Note that subscriptions created on your self-hosted server in this manner unlock server side premium features, but not client-side premium features (such as Super notes and Nested tags). To gain the full benefits of the Standard Notes ecosystem, you'll need to purchase an offline plan.

Offline plans offer you the full range of benefits of the Standard Notes ecosystem at a fraction of the cost of our hosted plans.*

Seems it's currently on sale 30% off; $39/yr or $113/5 yr
