Squid 2194 Posted May 29, 2015 Note: To view the application lists before installing unRaid, click HERE Community Applications (aka CA) This thread is rather long (and is mostly all off-topic), and it is NOT necessary to read it in order to utilize Community Applications (CA) Just install the plugin, go to the apps tab and enjoy the freedom. If you find an issue with CA, then don't bother searching for answers in this thread as all issues (when they have surfaced) are fixed generally the same day that they are found... (But at least read the preceding post or two on the last page of the thread) - This is without question, the best supported plugin / addon in the universe - on any platform.

Simple interface and easy to use, you will be able to find and install any of the unRaid docker or plugin applications, and also optionally gain access to the entire library of applications available on dockerHub (~1.8 million) INSTALLATION To install this plugin, paste the following URL into the Plugins / Install Plugin section: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Squidly271/community.applications/master/plugins/community.applications.plg After installation, a new tab called "Apps" will appear on your unRaid webGUI. To see what the various icons do, simply press Help or the (?) on unRaid's Tab Bar. Note All screenshots in this post are subject to change as Community Applications continues to evolve Easily search or browse applications Get full details on the application Easily reinstall previously installed applications And much, much more (including the ability to search for and install any of the containers available on dockerHub (1,000,000+) USING CA CA also has a dedicated Settings section (click Settings) which will let you fine tune certain aspects of its operation. NOTE: The following video was made previously to the current user interface, so the video will look significantly different than the plugin itself. But it's still worth a watch. Note that CA is always (and always will be) compatible with the latest Stable version of unRaid, and the Latest/Next version of unRaid. Intermediate versions of various Release Candidates may or may not be compatible (though they usually are - But, if you have made the decision to run unRaid Next, then you should also ensure that all plugins and unRaid itself (not just CA) are always up to date). Additionally, every attempt is made to keep CA compatible with older versions of unRaid. As of this writing, CA is compatible with all versions of unRaid from 6.4 onward.

Squid 2194 Posted May 29, 2015 wow.... fancy Will be even better once all the maintainers categorize all the apps. Quote Share this post Link to post
Squid 2194 Posted May 30, 2015 Either the author has stated that their containers will be categorized shortly, or I have submitted github pull requests with categories for all of the remaining containers. Hopefully shouldn't be long now until we are close to 100% categorization EDIT: Now up to 76% I believe that the remaining authors are currently on vacation and/or in the middle of a move.

Squid 2194 Posted June 2, 2015 Updated to 2015.06.02 Added in support for <Changes> (see here: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=40111.msg379576#msg379576) If the authors implement this tag on new containers going forward, then an will appear next to the application's name. Clicking on it will bring up a changelog / more information / etc. Also changed the way that the "Last update" at the bottom of the lists operates. Now if you haven't updated the containers in at least 2 weeks, the text will turn red with a reminder to update. Quote Share this post Link to post
BRiT 248 Posted June 2, 2015 Any chance there can be a setting to not display any containers at all on first load up? I'm seeing absolutely horrible performance when I first load the page on Win 8.1 and latest version of Firefox, it's like it's busy choking to death on javascript, the browser is so nonresponsive. I cant even switch to a new or existing tab. Im running this on an i3 530 cpu with 4gb ram so neither one should be a real bottleneck. Quote Share this post Link to post

Yeah, that was something that I was thinking about doing anyways... (My tablet grinds to a halt trying to sort it all out). I'll look into it. While its completely your choice, in my testing I've found that IE is by far the worst, Chrome is excellent, and Safari is actually the best on my system Quote Share this post Link to post

I cant even switch to a new or existing tab. Updated to 2015.06.03 On my system I'm seeing significantly faster response time not only in the initial load, but also during browsing from category to category. - The initial displayed screen is now blank instead of all applications. - Hitting the "All Categories" button from within a subcategory used to display the main categories AND switch the display to all applications. Now, it leaves the results displayed from the subcategory but switches the buttons to the main categories. Status updates: Thanks to pinion we are now at 80% categorized. gfjardim and pducharme I believe are both still unavailable. And, there are also a few change logs added into the applications now. Sparklyballs with pyNab (you can blame me for it) and Aptalca with Zoneminder. Quote Share this post Link to post
Squid 2194 Posted June 4, 2015 Updated to 2015.06.03a - Make local caching of application icons optional. Since one of the earliest updates to Community Repositories (2015.04.14) some users have had intermittent issues with the icons for the applications not displaying correctly (not displaying at all / only half the icon appearing). After a few "force updates", the icon would eventually get downloaded correctly. This was happening because of slow downloads on certain icons combined with the fact that they were being stored locally on the server. This update offers an optional work around to that issue for users who are affected. Instead of the server caching the icons, there is now the option for the server to not cache any icons, and rely on the web browser to do it instead. The up shot is that you're pretty much guaranteed that the icons will always display correctly, and "update applications" works faster. The downside is that rendering of the table is very slightly slower (1/10sec ish), and slightly higher bandwidth because your browser will now check to see if the icon has changed every time its displayed (it shouldn't re-download it if there are no changes) The default mode of operation for the plugin is to have the icons cached directly on the server. If you are having issues with the icons displaying properly to switch the mode all you have to do is create a file called webicon in the config/plugins/community.applications folder on your flash drive, and then update the applications. Nothing has to be in the file. The file just has to exist. This is just a temporary work around as other solutions are being investigated. EDIT: The option to enable / disable the server caching the icons is now selected within the settings module. Quote Share this post Link to post
aptalca 224 Posted June 5, 2015 Hi Squid, I just added a new WebUI link to one of my containers, AmazonEcho-HA-Bridge. The app didn't used to have one, but it now does. So I edited the template and added the WebUI address. But no matter what I do, the WebUI link is just not showing up. When I try to edit the container, it shows the WebUI address in the template, though. I tried stopping and starting docker, reinstalling the container, and everything else except for rebooting the server. Is this an issue with unraid gui interface or community repositories? Or did I do something wrong? I'm on rc4 by the way. Here's the template: https://github.com/aptalca/docker-templates/blob/master/aptalca/amazon-echo-ha-bridge.xml Thanks **EDIT** Reboot didn't take care of it either, still no WebUI link Quote Share this post Link to post

Since the updated webUI is showing up under advanced settings, this plug is doing its job correctly. I remember however that I had a similar issue with I believe needo's Sonaar not too long ago. I had to remove the container and image and reinstall it. I figured that it had something to do with the name change of the container from NZBDrone to Sonaar. (Don't remember 100% as I very rarely use the UI button -> I've saved bookmarks on all my containers) Installing your app right now to see what happens here Quote Share this post Link to post
Squid 2194 Posted June 5, 2015 So it works here and the UI does come up... Any chance that the name of the template changed? You may have to go through your flash drive (config/plugins/templates and templates-user) and delete all references to it and the old names). That might be messing up dockerMan Quote Share this post Link to post
aptalca 224 Posted June 5, 2015 Huh, that is strange. The only things I changed in the template were the addition of the WebUI link and the change log. Didn't touch anything else. That is weird. I'll look further into it. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post

I'll look further into it. Thanks What I would do is make a copy of the dockerMan folder on the flash drive. Then start deleting the references to it one at a time. Once you figure out which reference needed to be deleted to make the UI come up, post a defect report. I never went through those steps with sonaar, (and it didn't worry me much at the time), and I never ran your app prior to the UI change, so I'm of little help to you here unfortunately.

aptalca 224 Posted June 5, 2015 Deleted all traces, rebooted and reinstalled. That did the trick. I think the issue may have been that I had my template repo saved in template repositories as well (from a long time ago, just never had deleted it), and that might have caused an issue. Not entirely sure, but it works now. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post

Squid 2194 Posted June 6, 2015 missing or corrupt image. http://tower/state/plugins/community.applications/icons/hernandito-hernando-apachephp-docker-latest.png And that's one that I continually had problems with... From fresh it would usually show the top half of the elephant. Eventually it will show up, but its problems like this that prompted me to introduce the webicon setting detailed a couple of posts above. (You will actually see how slow that particular one loads) I am investigating other avenues for a solution, but for now the best solution is the webicon setting to let the browser handle everything itself (a hair more bandwidth, but the icons will always load correctly) Quote Share this post Link to post
Squid 2194 Posted June 6, 2015 Updated to 2015.06.06 Most of the new upcoming features for this plugin are going to have user-configurable settings. There is now a new section in the Settings section of the webGUI (Community Application Settings) that will allow you to configure those up-coming settings as they are added. Currently, there is only one option in there - disable local caching of images for those with icon display problems. Quote Share this post Link to post
SSMI 0 Posted June 7, 2015 After reboot you lose the edit and web ui options for a container along with its Image and version info. Is this something that happens for everyone or is it just me? Quote Share this post Link to post
Squid 2194 Posted June 7, 2015 After reboot you lose the edit and web ui options for a container along with its Image and version info. Is this something that happens for everyone or is it just me? That would be within the docker containers tab, which really isn't a part of this plugin, but I would think that your containers are not running after a reboot (not set to autostart).

Ockingshay 8 Posted June 7, 2015 Is there a way dockers that have multiple versions....for example SAB, mumble server etc,who have exactly the same description....can have some sort of definition as to the differences? I presume different authors use different base images, and/or different features applied, but as an end user it's unclear which one to choose. Quote Share this post Link to post

There should be some text or something in the overview section of the template to let users know the differences. Or alternatively authors could use the change log / more information section for the same purposes Quote Share this post Link to post
