  • Are there plans to have an easy way to update ones website, i.e. through pressing an update button, as opposed to having to do not-always-straightforward file manipulations on the server. If there's anything to draw from modern web applications, this is one of those things. 👍

    At this moment, for example, my board is 0.7.2, and my web developer is gone. You may have already implemented this in 8.1 but I wouldn't know, since I haven't a clue how to update... xD

  • We do offsite installations and upgrades, message [email protected]

    Of course, we do have docs so you should try it yourself just back up everything first!

    Edit: to answer your original question, we do plan on building an upgrade button into our hosting plans control panel - right now we just upgrade customers manually. It's probably impossible (or hard) to make an app upgrade itself via acp, we would need to make the acp a standalone application (we've toyed around the idea, but not worth the development time)

    @a_5mith Yes I have already checked it. I have found a docker image created by @nopz, this one is up-to-date. But the official docker image in not! Maybe you (nodebb) should give access to a dockerfile to allow anyone to build a nodebb docker image. EDIT I found the dockerfile, and the problem about this outdated version here. It's outdated because the dockerfile build the image with the v0.5.x version : FROM centos:centos7 MAINTAINER NodeBB Docker Team <[email protected]> # install main packages: RUN yum -y update ; yum clean all RUN yum -y install epel-release tar ; yum clean all RUN yum -y install wget ; yum clean all RUN yum -y groupinstall "Development Tools" RUN yum -y install nodejs git ImageMagick npm RUN yum -y install openssl openssl-devel # clone nodebb and install it RUN cd /opt ; git clone -b v0.5.x https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB nodebb RUN cd /opt/nodebb ; npm install # Create a nodebb volume VOLUME /opt/nodebb # Define a working directory WORKDIR /opt/nodebb # Expose ports EXPOSE 80 EXPOSE 443 EXPOSE 4567 CMD [ "node", "app.js" ] You should (NodeBB) update this dockerfile ! End of the EDIT Now, with the nopz/nodebb image I just had a problem about plugin persistence. But the first installation is so much easier and automatic with just one docker. Thanks for your answer by the way

    @a_5mith if you are quoting from a different topic it puts in a link to that topic but it was using the old format which is fixed now. https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues/1840

Looks like your connection to NodeBB Community was lost, please wait while we try to reconnect.
