Memcache addon

Memcache server

[nebulon]

So far we have added those components as addons. For example redis https://cloudron.io/developer/addons/#redis

Is this feature request to add memcache eventually as a addon for apps or as a standalone app?

[rmdes]

@nebulon That would be really great, i'm wondering how I can add it to an existing LAMP container, is that possible without rebuilding the entire image ?

I will move this to feature requests since we have to implement this like an addon (like redis).

@girish do you think there is a way for me to do this without retooling the lamp+progreSQL cloudron package ? I don't have lots of know-how but I can follow instructions

@rmdes I will try to make a example package later this week but there is no way around not making a custom package.

@girish I tried to install memcache on my cloudron but quickly ran into apps not being able to start due to conflicting ports, it seem memcache should be tweaked to adapt to cloudron environnement, no sure if that would be a container serving memcache for different applications or if it would be backed only inside the custom package container, long story short, I removed memcache at the ubuntu system level, rebooted my apps and everything is fine

Wondering if by starting from this base I could arrive to the same PostgreSQL image with all the cloudron goodies : https://hub.docker.com/_/memcached?tab=tags

@rmdes Let's continue the discussion at https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/3085/memcached-server-and-php-memcached

Just leaving a note to myself here . memcached has mechanism for doing auth easily which makes it hard to make it an addon. There is some complicated SASL based auth setup.
