      @marcusquinn I will have to respectfully disagree with that one. That being said, the CSS is fully user customizable

        @atrilahiji No worries, just my POV, noting the above Fast screenshot and similar with Stripe, Paypal and every other checkout form I've ever seen. πŸ˜‰

                    I think when @Staff updated this NodeBB a load of default settings got changed, including making it so we can now no longer edit old posts. I'd like that change to be changed back.

                        For the radio-button styles, It might look better to invert, so blue text on white. We always try to make high-contract for visually-impaired accessibility.

                            @atrilahiji Very nice! Some other tweaks:

                            • Perhaps add the Name & Email fields to your form so they are pre-populated when getting to the Stripe page.
                            • Currencies in alphabetical order.

                            Are you thinking to have an admin page for configuring the values & defaults? If so:

                            • Different amounts based on currency selection.
                            • "Donate" button text configurable (eg: "Subscribe", "Sponsor")
                            • Social sharing icons & links.

                            Coming together really nicely though, I can see why you wanted to make an alternative to Fosspay.

                            Maybe consider changing:

                            • "Elutheria Pay is a self-hosted FOSS payment system for FOSS developers" to
                            • "Elutheria Pay is a self-hosted, open-source and private payment system for projects, services and fundraising."

                                @marcusquinn I’ll look into these. So I was trying to make configuration as simple as possible while trying to not need a DB at all. So the things you want configured can be configured in the .end file. Same with the description, but I do agree that is better as a default.

                                I guess I’m wondering if you guys think it would benefit from using an admin page + db for config instead of a .env file for config

                                  @atrilahiji Same reason for every admin setting UI, broader reach.

                                    @marcusquinn fair enough. I certainly could try to add support for this

                                    Put it on my board as the next item I will be working on. Using Mongo because I love collection/document style DBs.

                                      Boy oh boy is this a long process. I mean my previous approach was definitely quicker but this will hopefully be more robust. Building out my own login system. I've never implemented auth myself so this will be fun. πŸ™‚

                                      I'll definitely need some help testing it once I get the next release out.

                                        Update again:

                                        I have login working. I might ask others who are more experienced with writing auth to audit it if that’s ok. I also have a site up now but was too cheap to get my own domain for it so here it is: https://eleutheriapay.atrilahiji.dev/

                                        Please let me know via dm or a reply to this post if you want to try out the new version when it’s ready and maybe even audit the code. I would be really grateful.

                                            Another update:

                                            I have pushed a seemingly working login system to my dev branch here if anyone is feeling adventurous enough to pull it and test it out:
                                            https://git.lahijiapps.dev/atrilahiji/eleutheriapay/-/tree/dev

                                            I am working on a few features to play off of this here:
                                            ad04e2b2-93a5-496f-9a53-90ea9e5f4324-image.png

                                            But as of now login and config updates now work and it makes use of MongoDB.

                                            I'm really having fun with this one. If anyone has some more ideas (keep in mind im just going to have to queue them because this does take time) definitely let me know. And if anyone wants to contribute also let me know and I can set you up.

                                                      Reviving this as I have come back to the project after losing motivation for a bit. I really did just want to keep this as a simple donation page that can be easily customized for those who don't want to build out their own. With that in mind, I removed monthly and annual payments from my current version. I still have a branch working on auth and a more complex system but I'll be thinking about how to best move forward with that in the future.

                                                      @staff I have a few changes I would like to make still before I have an initial version but I think it would be cool to have this app on the store if you think it makes sense. Of course, it is up to you guys

                                                        @atrilahiji said in Eleutheria Pay - Open source donation platform:

                                                        With that in mind, I removed monthly and annual payments from my current version.

                                                        IMHO monthly payments (at least) are often a key feature people look for when creating a "simple donation page" πŸ™‚

                                                          @jdaviescoates Normally I'd agree, but my goal here is to keep it lightweight. No DB, no user tracking, nothing. That is something that impossible to do while having recurring payments as you need to provide a way for users to cancel. The idea is tips and not patreon, basically. A branded layer over-top of stripe that also serves its own donation button you can embed anywhere.

                                                          I've kind of resolved to doing the work I need to make it fit my needs (as that was my original intent) and allowing contributions and forks from others if there is a need for that. Basically I don't want to put energy into building something I don't ever want to use.

                                                                        I had a landing page but wasn't happy with it so I was going to make a new one. Right now in the package im using the repo URL as the homepage.

                                                                            Working at a v2 I want to clean some more things up, write a golang backend, and build it with my CI to make it extremely easy to deploy. JS is cool and all but something about having 3 package.json files floating around in a single project makes me want to puke in my mouth a bit.

There is also this module called rice which compiles assets in a go code which you can compile into your app. Very nice because the resulting single binary is very end user friendly.

This is a good point, thanks for bringing that up. Better safe than sorry.

Maybe I should look at plain ol C or Rust for good ol downloading and relative linking of dependencies but otherwise golang is fun. That being said I found what you were talking about @girish and I’ve it all in one binary. Only thing now is I need to expose the CSS config in the .env file. Makes it easier so releases are just a .env and an executable. Simple and elegant.

I guess I'm used to just dropping a library or some code I wrote into the same directory as my main app and linking to it via its relative path.

                                                                                              I don't want to change langs again but now part of me is curious about just writing a C server lol. A fun challenge but not for this particular project πŸ˜›

                                                                                                      Yeah thankfully the backend for EleutheriaPay is very simple so rewriting it in go was pretty quick. I did have to pull out an assets folder from the executable so it can be customized. But it still means the frontend build is already done when it is downloaded.

                                                                                                      I’ll link it here in a moment

I've lost count of the number of times I've said it should be ready but my ADD brain does seem to miss things I need to fix. This time for real though.

Yeah its on my self hosted gitea but I can always make accounts for those who want to contribute or try to merge in contributions with credit from forks on GitHub or something. I haven't figured out the whole contribution model for self hosted yet. This is why we need activitypub gitea πŸ˜›

The package should be ready as well. Let me know if you have any questions about it @girish and a reminder that if you want it, "smash that upvote button" on my original post.

I have a few things I want to add in the near future but nothing should be breaking. It should be stable and good to go now πŸ‘

We have ended up with 7 patch releases now but atleast we are finally done. The roll out will take the rest of this week, so we will get on track to focusing on getting the most voted apps and already packaged ones out.
