Castopod is an open-source hosting platform made for podcasters who want engage and interact with their audience. Now with added ActivityPub goodness.

@jdaviescoates Interesting, a PHP app that has ActivityPub. For some reason I assumed most ActivityPub apps would all be fancy-dancy future-tech-language apps. This looks interesting, and easily hostable even without Cloudron.

I was going to suggest Castopod, glad it's already here !

[yusf]

Nice find! This fills a long-time need for me.

[axbom]

Nice, this would truly be the app that completes my dream setup on Cloudron.

Could this be ran in a LAMP app?

This has an existing Docker file - https://docs.castopod.org/getting-started/docker.html

How does one install PHP addons?

If not already part of the LAMP PHP image, an env variable is set as to where PHP can find them, and you point it somewhere in /app/data.

@privsec I've installed castopod in a LAMP app - it works fine

@steinhmor

Awesome!! I’ll have to give it try next weekend.

It looks promising

[micmc]

@privsec It's now reached version 1.0 BETA and it sounds great indeed.

This is something I would absolutely love to see in Cloudron. I'll give the LAMP stack a go though!

@steinhmor
How did you do it?

[murgero]

@privsec It's a PHP script, so you can install as any other script, unzip and upload to the /app/data/public/ dir and run the installer via the web

[martinkbs]

@murgero How do you do this installation step in Cloudron? How modify the parameters so that root folder points to Castopod's public/ subfolder.

If you upload the castopod folder to /app/data/public/ ¿?

Thanks!

[murgero]

@martinkbs Ah forgot about that, upload the script to /app/data/ instead so the castopod public folder goes into /app/data/public

[privsec]

@murgero I’ll try this again, but I did that and it just gave me an Oops error screen

@privsec Once you are done uploading make sure the permissions are www-data:www-data with 755.
