      I recently realized that there are quite a few apps that have been packaged by gracious developers here that aren't on the App Store for one reason or another. I started a repo to keep track of them hoping we can compile the whole lot of them!

      A copy of the list is pinned here:

      • Homepage - A simple, standalone, self-hosted PHP page that is your window to your server and the web. (Source Code)

        • Tests
        • License
      • Standard Notes (Sync Server) - The Standard Notes syncing server (Source Code)

        • Tests
        • License
      • Standard Notes Web - A free, open-source, and completely encrypted notes app. (Source Code)

        • Tests
        • License
        • NOTES: For some reason, it seems that this app doesn't backup well and often errors out in the process with a MySQL error ¯_(ツ)_/¯ I just disabled the backing up of this app since the notes themselves are backed up in the Sync Server app.
      • webhooks - webhook is a lightweight incoming webhook server to run shell commands (Source Code)

        • Tests
        • License

      Open to suggestions about formatting or any other pieces of data we may want to keep track of. Also, feel free to comment here about any more Apps that are packaged and they can be added to the list and repo!

        That's a nice idea.

        Something machine readable would be nice, then there could be ways to automate interaction with the list. Json, yaml (my preference), toml... The same data could also be used to generate a more human friendly view of it.

          @fbartels very cool thought! I modeled this after the awesome-selfhosted repo but I like the idea of something machine-readable. I'll report back when I have something!

            If you want we can keep track of them in this forum as well as a WIP thread instead of a WIP tag. The WIP tag currently only indicates what @nebulon and I are working on to get them published and not what has already been packaged/contributed in various states.

            We can make the topic sticky and also I think I have to give you mod permissions so you can keep it updated by editing it. Similar to what @jdaviescoates 's thread of who has contributed so far.

              @girish I'm not entirely following - how would this be related to the repo? What would be the 'source of truth'?

                  @atrilahiji I hope to have the new format up and running soon for devs to contribute what they're working on!

                    Ok, I think I figured it out. The repo now includes a packaged_apps.json file that is machine readable and is the source of truth for the README list. The README gets updated with a pre-commit hook that will compile the list (plus a prefix and postfix) whenever a commit gets made.

                    Thoughts/Merge Requests/more Apps listed are welcome!

                      @thetomester13 I meant maintaining a forum post like https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/3344/app-contributions-hall-of-fame . It's probably easier to maintain since people can leave a note on this forum instead of sending you a PR each time.

                        @girish I see. Shall I edit the top post in this thread to get the list going?

                          @fbartels Markdown is easily machine readable, human readable, and also compatible with gitlab 😉

                            @thetomester13 Or you can make a new post, up to you. You are mod in this category in any case.

                              @girish I like the title of this thread so I just updated the top post 🙂 thanks for mod status! I'll keep an eye on this thread and update it and the repo if people submit other apps.
