Regular App Packaging Event

[robi]

@scooke However you like!

If it's an in-person meetup or online, there is a host who is organizing and setting up the event, maybe recording it, etc.

They can choose an app they want for the event or another person like an app dev can choose one.

Or you make a deal with both to separate duties, while you try the packaging yourself with guidance from others. Fun!

The idea is to choose one we haven't done before, perhaps in a different language than before, so we cover more of the spectrum.

Just choose one, any one in the App Requests will do and move things forward.

@scooke I vote for Zabbix totally not because I had no time to finish my development of the app.
https://git.cloudron.io/BrutalBirdie/zabbix-app

Also Zabbix is just awesome and I would start sharing my Cloudron Templates for Zabbix Monitoring via API.
So everyone could monitor their own Cloudron . . . until it goes offline and then takes Zabbix with it

Nice, we can do better, monitoring ours and each others for a few key services to avoid being notificationless

I would be up for such a session as well, but currently I don’t have an app that I would like to package for myself.

PS: you guys only have a single cloudron? But even then I’m running my base monitoring on fly.io.

[robi]

@fbartels How about one or more of the Wireguard Apps?

That's another good topic, show and tell on how you do 3rd party monitoring with flies, haha. bzzzz

[fbartels]

@robi regarding fly.io: https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/7100/free-off-site-monitoring-with-fly-io-and-uptime-kuma/ or with a few more details at https://noted.lol/easy-off-site-monitoring-with-fly-io-and-uptime-kuma/

[robi]

@fbartels Thanks for the reminder!

[scooke]

Penpot would be nice. Or egroupware.

One of those easy to implement Wireguard solutions would be awesome, e.g. https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/7571/netbird-foss-noconf-mesh-vpn-using-wireguard-alternative-to-zerotier-tailscale-omniedge-netmaker-etc/

I am up for it as well Anytime in Oct works. @luckow (/ @BrutalBirdie) has helped organize these in the past, so I will ask their help again...

[fbartels]

Maybe https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/4355/penpot-design-freedom-for-teams could be interesting to look at. Their backend is unfortunately Java.

I got reminded of Penpot through todays annoucement of the aquisition of Figma through Adobe. I have used Figma in the past and it was an interesting tool, I would like to use it sometime again.

Their Docker source is available at https://github.com/penpot/penpot/tree/develop/docker/images and looks quite clean and nicely structured.

I'd like to watch and eventually join in the development when I'm more familiar with packaging apps for Cloudron.

[BrutalBirdie]

@colonelpanic I think such an event would be the best place to learn packaging.
So feel free to attend and ask as many questions as possible.

More appdevs more apps for Cloudron

[plusone-nick]

If anyone is willing to package the public reg app I published I think that could be a good "intro" or starting point since its built on top of the LAMP app

Will have an update soon (admin dash for env vars and legal docs)

Regardless I want to learn and look forward to this

[robi]

When is the next event?

[BrutalBirdie]

@robi afaik not set yet.

[robi]

I'm still deploying apps on two different servers. I use Cloudron when they have the app that I want and then I have a separate server where I deploy apps using the docker compose module in ansible. I was hopeful that I could join one of these sessions and get familiar with the process first and then start migrating everything to Cloudron. Any chance there is an event coming up? I live on the east coast of the US (EDT time zone), but I would join a meeting at any time if there is one being held soon. Please let me know!

[robi]

@colonelpanic the previous sessions have been recorded, so you can find those, such as https://forum.cloudron.io/post/22224

[plusone-nick]

@colonelpanic +1 i second this, I am also interested in any future events, especially during this summer

Also, I am curious - how do you like the Ansible/Compose method? That is my strat too for anything outside of Cloudron but would ideally like to learn more about the app packaging process as well
