Cloudron Third Party Repository

What is this project?

This is a project that is aimed to be a hub for unofficial Cloudron apps. The guys at Cloudron are incredible, but they are only human and there are only two of them. There are a number of apps I am sure many of you would love to see, but maintaining them while working on platform updates becomes incredibly difficult. This is why I wanted to created a space where unofficial apps can live, in hopes that one day our lords and saviours Girish and Johannes adopt them as one of their own.

"This was posted somewhere else! Where is your GitLab?"

https://git.atridad.dev/CTPR

How do I install apps?

This assumes the following:

1. You have a modern version of node.js installed
2. You have installed the Cloudron CLI

npm i -g cloudron

3. You have logged in to your instance

cloudron login

4. You have docker installed and are logged in (look up the instructions I don't want to spell it out for you here)

Here are the steps:

• Navigate to the CTPR Group and find an app you would like to install
• Download the app code:

git clone  <REPO URL>.git

• Build the app:

cloudron build

• Install the app:

cloudron install

• (optional) Update the app:

cloudron build && cloudron update

How do I update apps?

cloudron build && cloudron update

How can I participate?

Registration is open on this GitLab, however all accounts require approval. If you would like to directly contribute, please fork a repo and feel free to submit a Merge Request. For new apps, just let me know and I can fork them into the group so they show up in the list. If you have any questions, feel free to email me here.

Ever since I gave up on FossPay, I have been working on a Node + Vue based version of the same thing called Eleutheria Pay. Think of it as a layer overtop of Stripe to handle donations that can be self hosted. It is not at feature parity yet, but I hope to get there eventually. Right now it has stripe based one-time payments working. Is anyone interested in this being developed further and it being tailored more to Cloudron?

I am open to feature requests as well.

Repo: https://git.atrilahiji.dev/atrilahiji/eleutheriapay
Cloudron Package: https://git.cloudron.io/AtriLahiji/eleutheriapay-app
Demo (Use this card info: https://stripe.com/docs/testing#cards) : https://testsupport.atrilahiji.dev/

This has finally reached a 1.0.0 release that better reflects what I wanted this project to me. Its certainly not complex but thats precisely what I wanted. No user management. Nothing complex. Just a customizable page that looks professional(ish) and can serve its own donate button you can embed anywhere. I have updated the package accordingly and am waiting to hear back about whether or not it can be added to the store. That being said, to get a better idea of how many people actually want this I urge you to upvote this first post.

Is this something that is possible? The use case here is providing testing environments to clients for apps that allow user generated content. This can be useful to make sure a single app does not fill a drive.

Work from home is definitely the new normal, especially in IT related fields I find. I'm always trying to optimize and clean up my setup to make working from home more pleasant, and am really curious what others here do.

I'll share mine as well since I'm asking for other people's setups:

EDIT: And yes the sticker-bombed computer in the corner is my Cloudron server lol

1. All apps can have their own backup schedule and retention policy that overrides the server backup settings
2. These backups can have intervals down to 30 minutes (for stuff like Minecraft servers)
3. App backups can also be triggered manually
4. Apps with their own schedule are not included in the system backup

Is something like this feasable? My example above is for minecraft servers but like it can be useful for client sites and more critical services that may need more strict retention policies or backup frequency.

The idea is pulling individual deleted apps from backups so long as any retained backups contain that app. Should be possible since currently apps can be restored before they are deleted.

My hope for this is to eventually replace Nextcloud for file storage. And move to Cubby for files, SoGO for email/cal/contacts, and so on. Moving away from one app that does everything kind of ok to multiple good specialized apps.

1. It’s extremely easy to manage my server so the time
   Investment is much lower

2. SSO

3. Easy email management

4. 1 click installs

5. this incredible community

Open FaaS would be an excellent tool for developers who like to build applications in a serverless architecture but don't want to rely on Amazon/Google/Microsoft/etc.

@msbt Personally, I think the best approach is an unlimited number of customizable roles with a set of permissions you can give those roles.

So like discord for instance:

This is definitely more work so I get if its not a thing that will make it in.

@jdaviescoates not even close sadly. I am really hoping someone else would pick it up

Update: a restart worked just fine without issues. I'm going to make sure I start a backup now

@girish I just sent this via email but its worth having here if anyone else runs into this. They both seem to work now, thank you!

As for the addon, how did you end up getting that going?

Also, would you suggest I test a reboot to see how things come back up or would you advise against tempting fate this way?

Oh my... I interpret that as part of the DB is definitely corrupted. I also noticed some weird permissions issues trying to initialize the db while following the Recover MySQL guide. I just ended up backtracking the steps I did take to get back to where I was originally

My guess is its corrupted. Not entirely sure how this would have happened but I can try a fresh install of cloudron and restoring. I also just tried the steps from the troubleshooting guide in the docs and its seemingly still an issue. At a loss and in a panic !_!

This appeared to happen after a restart. SSHing in and restarting both mysql and box don't seem to help. I restarted the machine as well, no luck

I leave for my honeymoon (2 weeks) tomorrow and was made aware of this issue just now.

I've been a bit of a bother with support lately but am hoping @staff can save the day. Thanks in advance guys! (also SSH access is up and I sent in a ticket)

@girish @nebulon sorry yeah I didn’t get a chance to reply. It seemed to suddenly work again, and then same issue. I’ll give it another restart after work today and let you know how it goes.

New servers I seem to make on a particular domain run into this issue:

Any ideas? I cant see what could have changed if my existing servers are fine. At the moment I cannot administer the server via the web app.

@toja I'll throw my vote in here for that as well. The fewer production apps that depend on my docker instance the better

@timconsidine Just getting back to things now after the wedding

Don't worry its on my radar.
