Cloudron Forum

Any update on this? Cloudron lacks a proper personal photo-video management at the moment. Lychee does not do videos as far as I know. What are others using?

@nebulon then may be a standard apt-get install for additional language packs is the way to go?

May be we can install all OCR languages by default using sudo apt-get install tesseract-ocr-all as mentioned here. This way, the app has all languages installed by default and users can choose a specific language by modifying the PAPERLESS_OCR_LANGUAGE flag in paperless.conf.

PicApport is a photo server with web gallery for your intranet, web space or home network that allows you to organize photos, videos, PDF's, and many other mediatypes in a central location. Share, tag photos fully automatically with the integrated AI, edit metadata and find your photos in no time thanks to the intelligent search functions, the world map and much more.

@doodlemania2 thank you for sharing your experience. Since I started to add all personal documents, I wanted to be sure that things will work as intended. Love Cloudron, it's amazing!

@timconsidine I think you are looking for document retagger. I used this already and it works great!

Currently we have AllTube in Cloudron. It will be nice if the videos get downloaded to the server itself and can be accessed directly using the web interface. So, I was wondering if there will be any interest in YoutubeDL-Material - https://github.com/Tzahi12345/YoutubeDL-Material .

@Neiluj very valid points! +1 for Piwigo as well.

I scoured through their documentation to see what is written about data privacy. They do say that no data is sent over in a couple of places and their intention is not to make money but provide a platform for private use, etc. The AI is also done on the device as far as I understand. You are right, I don't think the code itself is opensource though.

This app is really feature rich. However, my first preference is Photoprism as well. May be others can add their views here...

@nebulon great! @WiseMetalhead, can you confirm that the latest update solves your issue with OCR?

I have a similar request. Currently Cloudron allows only a block list (Blocked IPs & Ranges). Can we have an option to do the inverse? I mean, allow only what we want and block every other range? The use case is, for e.g. if I want my Cloudron to be accessed from only the country where I live. It will be easier to be able to add/remove countries vs. IP ranges (something like this will be super useful - https://support.sophos.com/support/s/article/KB-000034791?language=en_US)

At the moment, since my instance is behind Cloudflare, I disallow traffic from all countries except mine in their firewall rules. Works OK this way too..

Given the current state/ incompatibility of Photoprism with Cloudron, I was wondering if there would be any interest in PicApport? Looks great with photo, video and other media support and mobile apps for access.

@msbt thanks for the info. I searched for Firefox in the forum before opening a new issue but couldn't find this thread. Perhaps @girish can merge these threads while I try out what's mentioned in the post.

@girish thanks! That's indeed the fix..

@luckow thanks. So, I am not sure what's happening on my instance then. I will roll back the current update, and update to the next version whenever it becomes available. Oh, I saw that automatic update thing in the app, should have probed further. I thought it disables updates for all apps.

Sorry, had to run the command as python3. Mark this as resolved!

@fbartels @girish yes, just checked. This is a time drift issue. I looked at the changelog for Joplin server and they mention that there is a new feature to check for timedrift when the server starts. I added MAX_TIME_DRIFT=100 and the server started without any issues. Thank you everyone for help. Please close this issue!

@wisemetalhead according to this, we can enable additional languages under PAPERLESS_OCR_LANGUAGE in OCR settings options. This can be found in the paperless.conf file when you click the file manager icon of the paperless-ng app's settings in Cloudron.

@nebulon @WiseMetalhead there is some more information here. Looks like there are two options, PAPERLESS_OCR_LANGUAGES and PAPERLESS_OCR_LANGUAGE. The first one determines which packages to install and the second one, which to use. The first option is missing in the paperless.conf file. May be we can add this manually and restart the app?

@wisemetalhead according to the docs, the PAPERLESS_OCR_LANGUAGES option should be configured in docker-compose.env and not in paperless.conf. Perhaps @nebulon can help here..

Hello all, paperless-ng has a built in document exporter. You can simply export the config, database and all files and import to a new installation using their document importer. I am not sure as to how to get this running in the Cloudron paperless-ng instance. There is no export folder in the app. Can anyone help me figure this out?

Thanks.

@robi great idea. +1 for m of n approach with minio!
