Outline - a Notion-like open source app

[marcusquinn]

@klawitterb Nice find and R&D! Looks like this might be just the thing for making Cloudron's LDAP useable by external apps:

• https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/2189/ldap-ad-server

[nj]

Update available: Outline v0.63.0

[infogulch]

Now that Cloudron adds authentication headers with the proxyAuth addon, maybe the easiest solution to integrate authentication is to use those headers in outline. I guess that might be as simple as adding a new file to the /server/routes/auth/providers dir. This would simplify the cloudron package because it wouldn't have to set up and run keycloak.

https://github.com/outline/outline/tree/main/server/routes/auth/providers

Then the only barrier to packaging for cloudron would be the hypothetical s3/minio addon mentioned above.

@infogulch I think that's doable. I'll see if I can get it working.

Update available: Outline v0.64.3

PS: Still no time to look into auth using Cloudron ProxyAuth

praying that you'll find the time! Hopefully then @staff will be able to take it from from there get this app into the App Store! (perhaps they could take a look at adding the ProxyAuth too? )

Edit: or perhaps another better/simpler(I've no idea if it's either, rieally! ) option would be to connect the outline app to the Cloudron LDAP Directory Server https://docs.cloudron.io/user-management/#directory-server= ?

@jdaviescoates I've got this running using dex serving as a connection between oidc and cloudron ldap. Works pretty well.
If you're interested you can find the code in my repo https://git.apehost.de/cloudron-apps/outline

@klawitterb that's great, thanks! But I wanna get Outline in the App Store.

Hopefully @staff can take a look at both these custom Outline packages and do whatever needs doing to get them into the store

[marcusquinn]

Perhaps AppFlowy can offer an alternative in the meantime?

Outline is paid, it is better to add a free plan also.
There are also free and open source notion alternatives like Logseq or focalboard which can be checked here

Hosted Outline is paid, that doesn't apply to self-hosted. Outline is also free (as in freedom) open source software too.

Update available: Outline v0.65.2

This also looks very good:

There is an update for the latest version v0.66.3
I forgot to put it here earlier.

[jdaviescoates]

@nj thanks!

@staff would be wonderful if this could be added to the App Store?

[matbrgz]

The implementation of https://git.apehost.de/cloudron-apps/outline seems to be working. Is there some plan to publish it in the store? @staff

[girish]

@matbrgz don't see why not, we will take a look shortly. Thanks for packging this!

[matbrgz]

@girish sorry to bother you again about this, could you please take a look here? This app is vital to my company.

And not just you either, it's the second most upvoted app request on the wishlist after Wireguard VPN. Be great to have it on Cloudron!
