Funkwhale - A modern, convivial and free music server

https://selfhosted.libhunt.com/compare-navidrome-readme-vs-funkwhale

Navidrome is available on Cloudron and seems to be more popular at the moment.

[jdaviescoates]

@LoudLemur Navidrome is great, but they have quite different feature sets. It'd be great if we had Funk Whale too!

What happened to this app?

[rmdes]

well... its not an official cloudron app but its running fine on my cloudron : https://github.com/rmdes/funkwhale-cloudron

[robi]

@rmdes ooh should be easy to add to CCAI / CAG for easier installs.

[rmdes]

Hmmm happy to do so but what's that ?

[jdaviescoates]

@rmdes it's @timconsidine's Cloudron Custom App Installer and Custom App Gateway

[timconsidine]

@rmdes I can add it to the Master Catalogue

Once added, Cloudron users can install it using a link.

Do you have a publicly available docker image ?
Or I can make one from the repo

@rmdes said in Funkwhale - A modern, convivial and free music server:

its not an official cloudron app

Should it become one? @staff

[girish]

Added to @vladimir.d 's list

[rmdes]

@timconsidine you can make one from the repo or use this one : https://hub.docker.com/r/rmdes/funkwhale-cloudron
this is the one I'm using in "production"

[rmdes]

@timconsidine I'd be happy to implement whatever is necessary to make this possible, is there any documentation somewhere about this?

[timconsidine]

@rmdes ah, documentation - always the Achilles heel. Sorry, will make some, but in the interim ...

1. ensure the source git repo is publicly available, no login (just checked : it is already)

2. a prebuilt docker image on publicly available link (e.g. hub.docker.com

If no pre-built docker image available, I can build one.

With that information (just 2 URLs), I manually add the details to my CustomAppGateway and hey presto, users can install the app from a one-line install command, but better from CCAI-P as that has update process.

Planning to add update process for the one-liner install also.

[rmdes]

The app is stable but it is based on the funkwhale v2, which is itself in RC, but in my experience is pretty stable, I have been running it for months in RC, in a bare-metal deployment, but then I really wanted to see this application on the cloudron store, so I went on an packaged it, studied the Taiga package to create this mono-container with 3 process running frontend by nginx, from what I'm seeing its running really well on our cloudron, including federation.

I migrated from my bare-metal and dumped the postgres to the postgres cloudron addon and after syncing the media files, everything was up and running without any data loss or federation activity gap, so i'm pretty confident its ready to be used by others.

I'll be alert to follow funkwhale releases and upgrade the docker image when necessary until it reach stable release

[timconsidine]

Funkwhale now on CustomAppGateway, alongside Indiekit

[rmdes]

Many thanks, I just pushed a new docker image with this last addition :

which is going to allow users to maintain the funkwhale app with ease

documented here : https://github.com/rmdes/funkwhale-cloudron?tab=readme-ov-file#scheduler-tasks

[timconsidine]

@rmdes your docker image is tagged latest, so I don't think any changes needed to listing on CustomAppGateway. But you probably know that. Just advising I haven't changed the listing.

[necrevistonnezr]

Installed via CustomAppGateway - works flawless, thanks!
But I can‘t login.
I did enter the command

source /app/code/venv/bin/activate funkwhale-manage fw users create --superuser --username abc --email hello@domain.tld --password aX7sxn5WtWLpok9MPRV3endgxb7LaW

(obviously a different password but the same length and composition) without error; then restarted the app.

But when I want to login I get the error

We can't log you in

Please check that your username and password are correct and that you have confirmed your email address.

… and I did not get an activation mail. And the email address does exist.

Tried the whole setup again this morning, to no avail:

@rmdes Can you help? Am I doing something wrong?
