Could not decide where to post this:

• Feature Request
• App Wishlist
  or
• App Packaging & Dev

So Discuss it is lol

Also interested in this use case - if any code is shared please let me know =] I will also look into giving this a shot

Over the last few years I have been self teaching web development with the intent of making an app for users to self register for a Cloudron instance. One major requirement I had was I wanted the app to be "inside" Cloudron and not in another VPS
So after a lot of studying and banging my head on the wall I have a version that I feel is sufficient enough to use and share with the community!

Here it is!!!🥳

Git: https://git.plusone.network/nick/cloudron-registration-community

Any questions, thoughts or suggestions are welcome!
Also, I am open to do custom front end work if anyone wants custom branding or a different layout

Final Note: If anyone is willing to help package this app for Cloudron please reach out

This looks awesome @plusone-nick . Do you think this should be standalone as an app or somehow integrated into Cloudron main code base?

[plusone-nick]

@girish thanks! Im open to either option! I plan on making an “admin” dashboard to enter the URL and Key data & simplify the install/confit process. I will need help in terms of packaging for Cloudron but I’m willing and able to learn

@plusone-nick wow, super cool

[girish]

@plusone-nick I guess main catch is the code base is in nodejs.

[plusone-nick]

@timconsidine thanks! Hopefully you find it useful

[plusone-nick]

@girish yeah that was one of my big blockers for NodeJS between Wapplers Docker-Compose and Cloudrons Dockerfile, if that obstacle can be overcome I have a NodeJS version too.

For now we can start with the current PHP/LAMP implementation and have it as a stand alone app since this seems the most straightforward

This looks nice! Is it possible to have "my cloudron" be replaced with whatever name we have set in our dashboard?

[scooke]

@humptydumpty Looks like it is editable: https://git.plusone.network/nick/cloudron-registration-community/-/blob/main/index.php. Just search for the phrase you want to replace; looks like it is on line 55.

[plusone-nick]

@scooke hit it right on the nose, thanks for sharing! @humptydumpty if you’d like a custom page I am open to contract work

@plusone-nick this is amazing!!!!

[plusone-nick]

@doodlemania2 Thanks!! feel free to use it and let me know of any thoughts or suggestions

@plusone-nick This would be cool as a standalone app cause then admins can just install this as needed.

Either way - I think the app will need a security audit before inclusion. Being a new dev and this is your first app, it's a good idea to make sure all the basics are covered.

I'd also recommend, if you're up to the task, is adding the ability for admins to add Terms of Services, Privacy Policy, and other misc legal stuff (Like GDPR and so on)

[plusone-nick]

@murgero indeed, it’s a very slim straightforward app, it stores no data and no important data is exposed in transit and it only makes like 2 or 3 calls to cloudron api but yeah anyone is welcome to audit as needed, would appreciate it

[plusone-nick]

@murgero & I will look into including the legal resources
