What could we hope for with a dedicated packager? 5 new packages a week? 10?

I would say one or 2.
There's a lot of work in packaging & in testing.

@timconsidine Thanks for those ideas.

It really is nice to know that if it is on Cloudron, it will work and be supported.

Yes. And you mention support. Support for Caprover apps is close to non-existent. No, actually, sorry, that's harsh. There is support, but not a patch on what is available here.

May also be worth exploring Yunohost and your own Heroku server (e.g. Dokku). They don't work for me, but they may for you or others.

I use a Firefox extension called SingleFile that saves webpages as HTML. Works great.

I also love this software, and have been pushing PRs to it.

@heliostatic What is the progress on supporting ArchiveBox on Cloudron?

[LoudLemur]

@heliostatic

ArchiveBox was featured in a blog recently:

The last ArchiveBox update was April 2021

Precisely!
There have been no releases for 10 months:-
https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/tags

https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/commits/dev
shows commits just 7 days ago, but IMO not much use without releases.

There have been 5 releases since August:

ArchiveBox is very popular. I hope Cloudron support it.

Also consider ArchivesSpace:

I thought I would bump this worthy request again.

ArchiveBox is all about self-hosting. Is it that there is some much better option or that people don't feel the need to self-host archives that this request has received so little love?

I'm also looking for this app in Cloudron , there is lot of content I'm interested to persist for the future

Incidentally, this got packaged just last week. We just have to double check and publish it...

Fantastic! That is a brilliant start to the New Year!

Thank you!

[LoudLemur]

I am ardently expecting this...

[LoudLemur]

One thing I hope is tested is how well ArchiveBox can store its archive on Block Storage options available on Cloudron. Archiving can take up a lot of space.

@LoudLemur https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/archivebox-app/ is the repo and it supposedly already works. I haven't tested it out though (which is why it's not published yet).

The initial package version is now published as unstable. Will lock this topic and the new forum section is at https://forum.cloudron.io/category/182/archivebox
