You probably just don't have permission to do so yet. I assume @girish will sort you out

@jdaviescoates Thanks

@girish i do not want to use my github for many reason, it would be great if you can provide permissions, i have about 5-10 apps that i can publish including outline, jira, slack nebula vpn,opencats and many others .

[girish]

@adeelahmad you should have access now to create repos.

Would love to be able to, but don't have the skills.

I note @klawitterb also has a an Outline package too:

Hopefully between you both and @staff and @appdev peeps will be able to get something stable sorted!

(although @girish or @nebulon should probably move these posts about Outline into the Outline thread as we've gone somewhat off topic )

+1 to have NocoDB to Cloudron!
I just spoke to the founder, Naveen about the possibility to bring over NocoDB to Cloudron, and he's happy to do so.
I'll send him the link to this topic, so he can come and introduce himself & the app here.
Hope the Cloudron team @nebulon @girish can get in touch with him as well to make this possible
Really excited!

@aizat happy to bump across you.

Hey Cloudron community,

This is Naveen - Founder of NocoDB.

NocoDB is a free & open source no-code database. (its an alternative to airtable but on your own new/existing databases). We instantly provide a collaborative spreadsheet and APIs on databases. Currently support turning postgres, mysql, SQL server, sqlite and mariadb databases.

We launched it 7 months ago and have had ~5.5 Million docker downloads. Would love to make NocoDB part of Cloudron so that the community can benefit for a seamless experience.

Really look forward to it @nebulon @girish

@o1lab welcome and I'm sure NocoDB would be a good addition to the Cloudron portfolio

@timconsidine +1

@o1lab hi naveen, welcome here! I am happy to get it published. It's actually pretty much packaged and one thing holding us back was that after installation, it shows a splash screen and this can be a confusing UX for the user. Is there a way to disable this and also the matrix screensaver automatically say at install time (in the packaging script) ? It's fine if we have to edit some database variables directly or set some environment variables.

[Aizat]

@girish Wow this is good news. Thank you for the hard work, really appreciate it sincerely.

Hi @girish, We just published a new version in which you can add the NC_MIN environment variable to disable both splash screen and screensaver. The value of NC_MIN can be anything other than an empty string. Hope it will help.

[girish]

@pranavxc thanks for the quick fix! I will look into getting the app published.

[o1lab]

@girish : Thank you so much. Look forward to it.

[o1lab]

@girish : Many of our users want to run noco on cloudron. Please let us know when its published. Excited to be part of the ecosystem.

[girish]

@o1lab Oh, I was waiting for a new release because 0.84.6 does not include it. Do you think using the master branch is stable?

[o1lab]

@girish : hey, it got available in 0.84.6.
