February 21, 20215 yr This container allows you to have a working Joplin desktop app, reachable via a http noVNC that can be placed behind a reverse proxy. More information about the noVNC baseimage here : https://github.com/jlesage/docker-baseimage-gui More info about Joplin : https://joplinapp.org/ This can also be used with the JoplinServer container as well to have a full Joplin stack runnin on unRAID. NOTE: If you're going to put this behind a reverse proxy be sure to either use the VNC password that you can set in the template or provide your own means of access control via proxy.
November 16, 20214 yr Hi @CorneliousJD I am looking to get away from my Synology DS Note station application Its one app that synchronize between everything IOS/Android Apps and a Desktop App - and it have a webUI that I can access through a proxy I am not sure but would this then require all these 4 dockers: joplin/server:latest postgresql14-joplin acaranta/docker-joplin https://github.com/jlesage/docker-baseimage-gui The last one I couldn't find in the Unraid store? And this would provide the same functionality? (Except the webUI would be through VNC? Sorry I have been reading and its not really stated very clearly whats required? or I am just not finding it in my searches Br Casperse

It's not great, but it's the only webUI option. 4th is not required - it is just a base package and is built into the 3rd one. Another option you may be interested in is Trilium Notes - it's an "All in one" system where it has a database, web UI, server, etc, and has apps for all platforms, and is based on markdown, you may find it useful. Joplin to me feels dated at this point and the sync methods are just... cumbersome. I wish it worked differently!
November 16, 20214 yr Thanks for the info and your work creating this docker! I also think Trilium looks more modern but Joplin did have a native app for both Android and IOS - I cant find any apps for mobile devices only desktop apps?
August 30, 20223 yr Hi, @CorneliousJD I appreciate you putting in the time to make Joplin app available via docker. After start, and opening the WebUI I am receiving this error: "EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/app/.config/joplin-desktop'" Perhaps this is the issue?: When using data volumes (-v flags), permissions issues can occur Any suggestions? After hitting 'ok' on the error dialog, the logs show the app shutting down. [edit: remove unneeded info] Edited August 30, 20223 yr by L a r s remove unneeded info

Here is the log: Easiest option here is to just chmod your /mnt/user/appdata/joplinapp to 0777 that way it should have whatever permission it needs. This seems to be a recent issue with unraid's newer versions where permissions get wonky with containers, LOTS of of them need this type of permission change on new installs, which frankly kind of sucks, but this is the easiest solution to quickly fix yourself.

Thanks for your help - chmod -R 0777 /mnt/user/appdata/joplinapp did the trick. (still new to linux...)
August 5, 20232 yr In case anyone has issues, here is how I got this container working with the latest version of the Joplin app: After installing the app, you need to chown -R 1000:1000 /mnt/user/appdata/joplinapp Then, open a console into the docker (it should put you in /app. If not, "cd /app" Get the latest appimage. For 2.11.11, that would be (replace with whatever the latest is from https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/releases) wget https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/releases/download/v2.11.11/Joplin-2.11.11.AppImage Execute rm -rf /app/squashfs-root Execute chmod +x ./JoplinXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.AppImage where JoplinXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.AppImage is the name of the file you downloaded in step 3 (e.g., Joplin-2.11.11.AppImage for the latest version at the time of this posting) Execute /app/JoplinXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.AppImage --appimage-extract Execute chown -R app:app /app/squashfs-root That's it. Now, restart the container and you should be running the latest version. Hope this helps someone! Edited August 6, 20232 yr by basnappl Fixed some errors
May 30, 20242 yr Hi. Any clue about how to install Joplin Server? It's mentioned on the description of this docker image, but I have no idea about how to install it instead of a client

May 31, 20242 yr Actually, I've realized that I have no need for this docker. Having a client running on my unRAID server doesn't buy me anything, as I'd use the Win desktop version of the client for use when I'm at home and the phone or laptop version when I'm away. That doesn't mean I don't appreciate the effort put into making this docker available, just that (now that I've got a better understanding of how Joplin works) I realize I don't need it.
May 31, 20242 yr Author Yes you guys just need the Joplin server (there USED to be an app in CA for it but it's been removed) or just run it serverless since it uses flat files. no actual need for a server. the idea behind this (not developed by me) was to just have a way to view your notes in a web browser was all. This is not a server side software -- it just ran the app w/ a VNC window so you could view it.

Appreciate your efforts to put this together, but it's not something I'd need.

Wow, the entitlement here is so real. This thread, right here. The one you've posted in, is the support thread, which contains information for what this container is (and is not) and how it's used. AND that I am NOT the person who developed it. I simply put the template into CA in case anyone else wanted to use it. Feel free to build your own in the future instead.

I also made some Unraid-Docker-Templates but I will do the devil before releasing them to the public. They have to work out of the box - if not, I will write a users manual. But any way, thanks for this experience. Joplin is nothing what I am looking for, its not 1% of Microsofts OneNote - sad to see there is no alternative.

June 28, 20251 yr The JoplinApp Docker is unfortunately a very old version and does not seem to be updated regulartly. A folder access issue also prevents the app to run after install. I followed the procedure in one of the answer above to fix the issue and also to upgrade to latest version of Joplin. This is too bad that this application is not properly maintained.Link to answer: https://forums.unraid.net/topic/103022-support-joplinapp-corneliousjd-repo/#findComment-1291944
