WriteFreely - Blogging Platform

I’m surprised this isn’t on Cloudron yet.

@alwynispat A lot of the fediverse apps are being tried by different appdev folks (myself included) - there are some challenges getting some (like lemmy et al) into a single container, but progress is happening! I helped with Pixelfed and Mastodon a bit. Now working on writefreely, lemmy, and bookwyrm as time permits

@doodlemania2 FWIW, Yunohost has a working WriteFeely app which I use. Checking out their repository should help you work things out, yes?

[doodlemania2]

@scooke yep absolutely!

Any progress here @doodlemania2 ? Can i also try and help you?

[timbo]

I would also like to throw in a little money for the dev who get this shipped. Say €50 from me via PayPal or whatever would be preferred. #bountytime

Hi @timbo - i've got it working, but it isn't yet stable. Hoping to have something that you can install shortly (juggling vacation with family too)

[timbo]

hey @doodlemania2 - nice! My "bounty"-offer is still valid, even if you packed the whole thing before i posted it here https://forum.cloudron.io/post/69225 - so let me know if you can need 50 Euro more for your vacation, which will be a nice one i wish

[doodlemania2]

appreciate it greatly! will see what I can do

[doodlemania2]

well, i tried, there's some issues with it wanting some very specific go packages, i'm going to need to rebuild it and figure out how to maybe install go packages manually. will keep yall posted.

+1 for this

@heliostatic Do you think that would work ok with OnionShare to create a blog on TOR?

I am also interestedin using WriteFreely via Cloudron.

Has anyone successfully installed it DIY on Cloudron?

@whitespace You can try to!

From the description it's a static binary with connection to mysql, hence that would work in the LAMP app.

Here's the Dockerfile in case you want to build and package it, however it's not necessary since the binaries are available.
