@yusf I'd like to do something similar but have never used minio so would be interested in exactly how you at this up

@jimcavoli see https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/2137/oauth-support?_=1585432521163

@seeker said in Video chat and conferencing options:

When enabling this, do you know how many can conference simultaneously?

I don't, but I'd guess it depends on how many other people are using meet.jit.si at the same time.

Still looks dodgy on mobile. I'll report...

Here is my upstream issue (just realised I never got around to posting it here):
https://github.com/Requarks/wiki/issues/1545

@seeker I'd suggest waiting until Cloudron 5.1 when Cloudron should then include a TURN/STUN server.

Hopefully a Jitsi Meet app will then follow soon after, and hopefully Nextcloud Talk with easily be able to use the Cloudron TURN/STUN too (and hopefully Kopano Meet app will then be updated to use it too, and move from unstable to stable).

In the meantime, if you can't wait and still want to do it on Cloudron I'd say you have two options:

1. use Nextcloud talk and follow these instructions to install and set-up your own TURN server https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/1846/manual-coturn-install-for-nextcloud/10?_=1585310908753

2. use the Jitsi Meet integration Rocket.Chat has (see https://rocket.chat/docs/administrator-guides/setting-up-video-conferencing/ ) - by default this integrates with https://meet.jit.si/ but once Cloudron TURN server addons and Jitsi apps are available it'll be possible to integrate with those instead)

@seeker I think Cloudron is really great for this

Most apps have LDAP support and so users can login to various web apps with the same credentials!

(although some key apps like Discourse don't have this yet )

If you look at:

https://stackshare.io/index/collaboration

and

https://stackshare.io/index/business_tools

You'll find the most popular and widely used collaboration and business tools are things like:

Slack
G Suite
Trello

(these are the top 3 of the apps that appear on both lists).

You could replace these with:

Rocket.Chat
Nextcloud
WeKan

All running on Cloudron.

It might be useful to think of the browser as the single toolbox/ app that people use, and adopt something like Guerrilla Media Collective's concept of "Browser-tab based workspaces", see:

@girish really great to see Freescout is a WIP, my local Covid 19 mutual aid group are interested in using it...

@JOduMonT said in Who want to share recipes ?:

RocketChat seams great, but it is possible to do chatbot such as Mattermost, if yes how to do so ?

Looks like it, see https://rocket.chat/bots

@girish said in Allowing guests to join Nextcloud Talk video calls:

@jdaviescoates The plan is to add coturn to cloudron platform itself (next release)

Excellent, looking forward to it!

@girish said in Jitsi Meet:

So, I think what this means is that we have to integrate the turn server into the platform code base itself. So, it would become an addon/service just like the databases and other things. And then nextcloud, jitsi, kopano meet etc can just use this coturn service. Integrating coturn into cloudron is not very hard but will require a new release of Cloudron.

That'd be totally awesome!

Which I guess is what we've come to expect from Cloudron

It also sounds like having a turn server service/ addon that can be used by nextcloud talk/ jitsi meet/ kopano meet etc, would be a much better solution anyway, so I'm actually really glad that making it part of the app is hard!

@nebulon said in Jitsi Meet:

For jitsi to work properly, we would need a coturn instance on Cloudron, which unfortunately has to run on port 80/443 to work reliably on public wifis (other ports are often blocked there)

Perhaps an interim solution would be to use other ports? I'm mean, it'd be great if people could join using open public WiFi, but I think in many use cases Jitsi not working on such networks wouldn't be too much of an issue. Eg. Like right now the need is for people in covid_19 coronavirus lockdown using their own private WiFi to be able to use it.

I note @iqweb has managed to install a coturn server on the same VPS as their Cloudron, for use with Nextcloud Talk, could that be part of the solution to getting Jitsi working too? https://forum.cloudron.io/post/4207

I just installed, enabled and tested Nextcloud Talk.

Seems to work fine for logged in Cloudron users, but not for guests.

I've not got my head around all the TURN/ COTURN stuff - but is that basically what I need to sort out in order to allows guests (i.e. people who don't already have accounts on my Cloudron Nextcloud) to be able to join calls?

If so, I guess I should try following the instructions shared by @iqweb here:

https://forum.cloudron.io/post/4207

@nebulon damn, guess that means Jitsi wont be coming to Cloudron any time soon wish I could help, but have no idea!

All sorted now

@jdaviescoates said in Nextcloud pdf and video preview:

Easiest way to get it back to original state?

I restored a backup from 8 hours ago.

Now to try again... But asting into the web console doesn't seem to work properly (perhaps a bug?), so will try downloading, editing and then uploading or something...

@hiyukoim in the meantime you may want to check out some of the other renewable powered VPS providers...

I've compiled a list here (oh, damn, can't share my list atm because it's hosted on my Nextcloud and I've messed up my Nextcloud config file... will share full list here once I've sorted that, in the meantime check out https://www.hetzner.com/cloud who are my favourite green VPS provider ):

For PDF previews, please follow the docs - https://cloudron.io/documentation/apps/nextcloud/#previews

Whilst trying to paste that code in I've managed to mess up my config file (and stupidly didn't download a copy beforehand).

Easiest way to get it back to original state?

Thanks!

@girish said in AllTube Download - HTML GUI for youtube-dl:

I don't mind adding it since we already have apps like CloudTorrent as well.

So let's get this in the app store then, no? Seems @msbt keeping on top of it

@avatar1024 said in Jitsi Meet:

would running Jitsi on our own Cloudron improve performance?

Assuming enough resources are dedicated to it, then yes it should perform better than that shared free service.

@nebulon said in Freescout: Helpdesk & Shared Mailbox:

To give an update, this app is mostly functional by now, since after our user setup script changes were merged https://github.com/freescout-helpdesk/freescout/pull/520

Would love to see this in the app store!
