Nextcloud Fulltext Search
-
It would be great if the Fulltext Search App could be included in the Nextcloud package. The app allows for fulltext search of files and bookmarks via Elasticsearch or Solr.

Can I kindly bump this topic?

So this may be confusing.
TO install this app, it must be done from within NextCloud, not Cloudron. I just confirmed on my own instance. If you need help, let me know and I'll walk you through it.

If you need help, let me know and I'll walk you through it.I know I need to install an app within nextcloud but there's also a "server part", see https://github.com/nextcloud/fulltextsearch/wiki/Basic-Installation#installation-of-elasticsearch--ingest-attachment-plugin-on-your-server
Installation of ElasticSearch + "Ingest Attachment Plugin" on your server
I thought this would have to happen within the Docker instance of nextcloud?

I have this question to. What to do when some of these Nextcloud apps require something to execute on the server itself. This is my main example, but also for a preview generator that needs something added to a cron job, etc.

@necrevistonnezr oooooooh, I assume with that one, you'd need your own external server for that feature.. Let me know what you find!

Well, in theory you needed an external server for the Nextcloud Collabora Office app but the cloudron guys made it available, anyway...

We do have plans to provide elasticsearch as an addon (just like other databases) at some point. For the moment, it looks like you have to run elasticsearch on a different server and connect the plugin to it.

It seems there's a Docker image for the fulltext search backend engine on Nextcloud, now: https://github.com/nextcloud/fulltextsearch/wiki/Basic-Installation

Getting elasticsearch into Cloudron would be great! Fulltext search for Nextcloud is a must and running a separate instance side by side to cloudron is very inefficient...
