AzuraCast a simple, self-Hosted web radio

@jeau Looks like an amazing project. I hope we can have some image hosting like that on Cloudron soon.

Please, somebody, support this on Cloudron!

@robi A unicorn is cool, but dangling something off its horn is a bit naff, in my book.
Thanks for posting that image. To me it is a bad sign, as it indicates there is no thesis / counter-thesis culture there. Somebody proposed something (in my opinion, a bad idea, i.e. dangling something off a unicorn's horn) and for one reason or another, no counter-proposal was present, to negate the proposal or suggest something better.
If this is the case, it would be a sign of a lack of a defence system, the organization lacks the sort of immune system that can recognize and manage ill. Next, one could anticipate several other bad-actors to arrive and start corroding the system from within.
I hope this doesn't happen.

Cloudron is still missing an out of the box web radio station app like AzuraCast. Just saying.
-
I would love AzuraCast on Cloudron too. This is why I wish there was some sort of simpler process, for non-developers who have no experience with Docker or programming and such, to install custom applications. While I very much enjoy all the benefits and features Cloudron has, it's tidbits like this that make me think springing for the one-year subscription probably wasn't the best idea before thoroughly researching its pros and cons.

It would be great to have Azuracast.
Till we do, Vultr and Linode have it available as a one-click install application in their marketplace.
There is some progress on LibreTime too, as "The Docker setup has now been merged so people can start testing it out. The images themselves will be built from the next release"
https://github.com/libretime/libretime/pull/2134
The latest build is 3.0.2

One way LibreTime is better is it has a sort of schedule tool for the audience. I would prefer LibreTime over Azuracast.

A few points here:
I am the IT person (or tech admin) for a non for profit organisation, and I use cloudron for almost ALL of the services we need on one big server. But I need 2 separate servers to operate the IPTV (Internet TV) and online radio.
I am currently testing Azura Cast on a test server, and I will be putting this onto an active server, slashing the cost of running a properitary license for a radio control panel.
This should go on cloudron, and it is easy to configure. Unlike LibreTime, where you need to configure a YAML file, which wont work on here, as the system is locked. As well as, it won't have the capability of live DJs using the program.
And if you are just using this for talk radio, and playing royalty free music, AC would be the way to go.

I have used Azuracast and enjoyed the experience. I actually wanted to use LibreTime for its scheduling, but Azuracast was very good. One of the cool features of AC is it allows a DJ to just point their browser at a website, login and they can (if permissions have been granted) jump right in to live broadcasting right there.
Another cool feature is support for HLS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Live_Streaming
and also opus.
There are some powerful tools for scheduling. I really hope Azuracast is available on Cloudron. Till then, there are some sites like Vultr which offer one-click deployment, but you need a dedicated VPS for that.

Maybe one for @Kubernetes

I hope Cloudron can host this. It would be brilliant. Maybe @Kubernetes will have a look. I hope so!
-
We started on this already at https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/azuracast-app but @vladimir-d hit some issue. Trying to remember what that was.
-
Hello, @vladimir-d What needs to happen with Azuracast?
-
@stevespaw azuracast needed port range support which we have now added in 7.7. Cloudron 7.7 is still rolling out, should be done by this week. Once done, we will try to package it.
