Cloudron Forum

I took a peek, but could not get my head around it (due to head being too full just now).
But I agree it looks very interesting.
Will try to look again when more open to incoming information !

I use Cloudns for DNS - they’re good

@lukas said in InvoiceShelf:

Docker Image Files: https://github.com/InvoiceShelf/docker

Err no, there is no Dockerfile, just docker-compose, so packaging would need to be from scratch

There is a docker image but that's not useful for Cloudron packaging

I use Dynadot after moving away from Uniregistry / GoDaddy

@robi interesting

We all know systems can be vulnerable and the complexity of AWS and Azure and GCP must be huge.

But really Azure down so soon after AWS ?!

I don’t go for conspiracy theories, and cockup is often the truest explanation. But …. Really ?

I don’t trust any explanation from the parties affected, they’re going to put the simplest spin on things and accept the embarrassment.

I smell a big fat rat in the works, maybe someone tinkering with inter connect cables.

I’m not a fan of Stirling so look forward to checking this out

Good on them for this initiative.
Despite web browser now being fundamental functionality, the offerings from all the others are frankly pretty poor, bloated dinosaurs.
Look forward to their first usable release

@tronical personally I do this process :

• fork the repo
• make changes
• docker build etc.
• docker push etc
• cloudron install etc.

Maybe I should learn cloudron build but I am an old dog with limited brain space

My build script (usually in folder above the app dev folder) :

#!/bin/bash

if [ "$#" -lt 1 ]; then
    echo "Usage: $0 <image-name> [cache|nocache] <appname.yourdomain.tld>"
    exit 1
fi

# Get the directory from which the script was called
BUILD_DIR="$(pwd)"

if [ "$2" = "cache" ]; then
    echo "Building with cache ..."
    docker build --platform linux/amd64 -t $1 "$BUILD_DIR"
else
    echo "Building with no cache ..."
    docker build --no-cache --platform linux/amd64 -t $1 "$BUILD_DIR"
fi

docker push $1
cloudron install --image $1 --location $3

e.g. ../cld.sh dockerregistry.yourdomain.tld/appname:version cache appname.yourdomain.tld

@nebulon thanks for packaging this

One more app I can remove from my non-cloudron VPS

Installed fine, logged in and changed user and password, connected to my iOS app.
All appears working - will try to test more.

@scooke
docker build --platform linux/amd64 -t your docker.tld/cloudron-dawarich:v1 .

Or, you can install from my image :
cloudron install --image tcmbp132021/cloudron-dawarich:v1 --location dawarich.yourdomain.tld

Dawarich package now available at https://ccai.uk for easy installation

Note PostInstall :
Username: demo@dawarich.app
Password: password

@scooke I cloned the repo, built it and used cloudron CLI to install it.
It works

Just adding it to my custom app installer to ease the pain

@adisonverlice2 IMHO you're confusing apples and pears - that's the polite expression, there are others.
It seems you COMPLETELY underestimate or misunderstand the ongoing work needed to maintain and develop Cloudron, and keep it stable.

Cloudron is not providing some hardware, and some base software or reselling / redistributing a 3rd party software (eg pfSense).

I completely fail to understand why anyone would agree to receive a single payment for the next xx years work they have to do, unless that is 20x the annual price.

I repeat : pay a single fee for perpetual licence for a fixed version of Cloudron ? maybe that might work. Want the benefits of a maintained platform with upgrades, forget it.

I've had enough of this discussion, which is IMHO is just plain silly.

@adisonverlice2 maybe you should address your questions to netgate

One-time purchase is a really bad idea and makes no sense at all .... unless the one-time purchase gets you a one-time version, e.g. version 8.5.0 and you then stick with that, no upgrades (ok, well maybe one year).

There are some precedents in financial markets, taking into account present and future value of money, for a fat payment to be made up-front for continuing lifetime service.

But generally it's a silly idea to expect to get lifetime continuing service (current version, plus free future versions) for a single fee, unless the multiple is significant, 10x or 20x.

I think the Cloudron team have got enough to do without being distracted by this kind of suggestion.

@chmod777 will take a look at it

@WiseMetalhead well done on packaging - it's always a bit trial-and-error !

My memory of this app is vague and distant, but if files are not needed, they can be removed from /app/data by adding code for that to start.sh to get a tidy installation, but I'd be tempted to ignore them.

@hakunamatata sadly I didn’t find a solution.
I did get Reolink cameras working through the Reolink plugin but I didn’t go through the process of setting up capture and storage.

Instead I diverted effort into packaging Zonminder for Cloudron but I’m a bit stuck on that at the moment.

Short-term I am using an app called Glancecam for Mac which actually works well for live monitoring, but doesn’t handle capture

@LoudLemur thank you !
