Docker templates are no longer grouped by repo

Why is this urgent? Looks more an annoyance.

Does your server crash or has data loss?

I've changed it from urgent to annoyance, but It is a SIGNIFICANT one. I have to go through template ONE BY ONE to see what is what. I don't normally complain and try to be supportive, but I had to setup a few servers this weekend and this has caused me a great amount of pain and time wasted.

 

And don't take this personally, I still heavily support unRAID

Alternative though is to simply forget about using repositories altogether and use Apps for everything instead.  It DOES support "private" repositories which you may have added

Can you elaborate please on the use of 'Apps' in this case or link me to a guide so I can educate myself? Thanks.

If you're using "private" repositories (ie: ones that you've created yourself and not shared, or other ones that aren't available in CA), then create a path /config/plugins/community.applications/private/nameOfRepository on the flash drive and toss all of the applicable xml files in there.

 

IE: I've tried to make CA such that anything you can do with the Repositories section in the docker tab you can do with CA.

Yeah I am using the following repo's:

 

https://github.com/limetech/docker-templates
https://github.com/binhex/docker-templates
https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-templates
https://github.com/linuxserver/beta-templates

 

Your reference to CA is Community Applications? Just want to be clear on the terminology here.

Yes.  Apps tab

All stock repositories.  While it doesn't change anything about the issue / bug, most people don't even bother adding any repositories, and just to CA for everything  Much easier to handle things.

It is highly recommended to use "Community Applications" as the way to install docker containers.

The repository system is likely to be deprecated in future releases.

Oh... Well hello there news.

So let's break this down.

 

What you are saying, the proper route to go in this case is to install this plugin:

Which is maintained by @Squid ?

 

Or is this going to become part of unRAID 'core' in the near future?

Yup.  IMHO not just in this case, but in all cases.

Yes, along with @dockerPolice and @pluginCop

Unknown.  But, it is directly linked to on LT's website as the "unRaid Appstore"

Going the CA way is the longterm strategy. Not known yet how this would unfold.

Thanks for the info. I got 4 unRAID boxes and I want to take the strategic approach.
