@firmansi no ETA, we are implementing them one by one.

Don't run du for small disks (see)
I have added a mechanism to skip running du . The code now looks for a
/home/yellowtent/platformdata/diskusage/excludefile. This file can contain one filesystem (as listed in the first column of df output) per line. du for these filesystems is skipped. -

This is now implemented with Tika support in the mail server.

Branding of OIDC button
Implemented in https://git.cloudron.io/platform/box/-/commit/872705d58d3146ec6b6a5ac5aed6adbe9e245ab9 . The Cloudron name is used as the OIDC provider name as well. The apps will be adjusted one by one to make use of this new environment variable
CLOUDRON_OIDC_PROVIDER_NAME -

VM mode for apps?
We will re-evaluate this in some future release. For the moment, this is out of scope. It's too complicated to implement a VM like system that allow readwrite containers and further allow users to define backup directories, services, exposed ports etc. We will stick to pre-packaged apps for the moment.

@girish well...i mean to back up differently (independent backup), currently, correct me if i am wrong, the backups involve the applications backup, so it turns out if i only want to backup email, i have to backup the app first then uninstall apps then back up cloudron along with the the email.
-
@firmansi right.. there is no way to trigger a backup separately for just the mail right now. It's easy to add the button but implementing just restoring of mail server data also has to be implemented for completeness. But yeah, this is not there yet.
-
@humptydumpty it's not implemented yet, so.. sorry, no update on that front.

FYI I'm really hoping that it won't just be multiple backup destinations, but also multiple backup formats, e.g. rsync to destination 1, tarball to destination 2
Perhaps it would also be good to be able to specifc type of back-up on a per-app basis. From the little I understand some apps suit rsync/ tarball better than others?
(although I have to admit I'm not at all clear on which apps suit which type - e.g. I used to think "lots of files -> rsync" but sometimes it seems "lots of files -> tarball (because it takes ages for it to check which files have actually changed)"

8.2 will also get initial support to mount any device from the host into the container. This is mostly done for home automation apps, but may also be relevant for AI apps, which need access to special devices, exposed by the GPU, from the host.

Remove the global lock for backups.
Finally, the global lock is gone. Practically, what this means is: Backups and Updates do not block app configuration anymore.

App archival?
This is implemented now. In the Uninstall section, there is an option to archive.
In the Backups view, there is a listing of archives. You can unarchive them from there.
Archiving means:
- App gets uninstalled freeing up space on server
- App won't be in the main dashboard
- The latest backup of the app is kept "forever". Not affected by backup cleaning policies.
- Can be unarchived. If you delete the archive entry itself, the associated backup will eventually go away based on cleanup policy.

Wow this can be super useful.
Awesome

Add more notification methods
The notification stuff has been refactored now. For a start, each user (only admins) can decide what they want to get notified about by email. If you want notification about specific things, happy to add more but we just added the basics right now.
