Cloudron on a Raspberry pi?

[malvim]

Hey! I was working on this, but stumbled upon two issues:

1. As @girish said, there's not much interest in ARM servers, so it would be very low priority to integrate having different architectures into cloudron main code; and

2. I wanted to do this so I could host my cloudron at home, but since mos ISPs where I live won't let you expose port 80, 443, 25, etc., I lost interest in pursuing this.

If cloudron would support having nginx on custom ports, that would be cool for people wanting to host at home and with the same problem, but I think this is also not a priority now, as not too many people seem to be interested in this.

It's not too hard to make cloudron's install script work on a raspberry pi, though, but you'd have to maintain a fork, which was also not my interest at the time. If you want to, though, DM me and I can give you a few pointers.

@malvim There's a nice thread on all the different tools you can use to expose apps under dev or home run services:
https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/6231/ngrok-alternatives-awesome-tunneling

Even if you don't have a domain, any subdomain provider will work, and I'm sure many of the forum members could offer a container that does just that on one of their subdomains if you don't already have one and a VPS.

@robi hey, thanks for the reply!

I'll take a look.

I currently do own a domain and run cloudron on a rented server, but I'm from Brazil and stuff is pretty bad here right now, and it's starting to be a bit too expensive for my purposes.

I thought about hosting at home, but stumbled upon this problem. I'll take a look ad that thread and see what I can use. Thanks again!

We also have a thread on that.. search for "cheap vps" ..
my profile has a link to the affordable VPS servers I use.

@girish @nebulon , just wanted to add my voice to ARM (RPi) support.

More and more hostings appears with RPi with a very attractive pricing (8Gb RAM, 4CPU Cores * 2Ghz, 30Gb network HDD) for ~$15/month.

It would be also very handy for a private in-office use, for a more private use cases.

I'm also interested to run Cloudron on ARM based hardware

Me too. Hetzner offers VPS' for less costs with ARM chips and so may other hosting providers these days. (=

We are in the course of automating the build and testing of package updates. Once that is done, we can think about creating additional packages. Creating ARM builds for apps will automatically double our package count!

@girish Amazing work Girish.

Is there any way we can support this - also financially?
