Plugins that are wanted - Part 5

you heard about ajenti ?
https://github.com/Eugeny/ajenti/

yep, long time ago. I just looked at some pics of that file manager in ajenti. It does not look great. Have you tried it @Gutz-Pilz ?

@ryecoaaron
following the script ryecoaaron provided I was able to install virtualbox 5.0.2 successfully. But phpvirtualbox 5.0.2 page came up with the generic "An unknown PHP error occurred." error message.
I checked by loading the ".../virtualbox/config.php" page and it came up blank as expected.
I also tried to change the phpvirtualbox back to default admin/admin user and password by revert back to virtualbox 4.3.x, and it hasn't helped.
Is there any debug log file I should look at why phpvirtualbox failed to load?

Thanks,

NTOPNG please

Hi guys,

I"m looking at this Assets Management open-source software that 's look good called "Snipe IT'.
Can you guys develop a plug-in or tell me how to install this manually?

Since this tool is pretty specific, I think the best thing to do is grab the Docker plugin for OpenMediaVault and use this container: https://hub.docker.com/r/snipe/snipe-it/.

I'm thinking that too.

But wouldn't it be faster to run it without Docker ?

Not really, docker is not a virtualized environment. Docker "containerizes" processes, isolating them from the host system but it does not virtualize hardware or anything like that. Here's a good stack overflow article:

This app required MySQL.
Don't know if it cause mix up with my OwnCloud mysql if I install in in Docker or directly in OMV.

You can connect your docker container to your already installed MySQL server and unless you expose the MySQL port in a docker container on the same port as your non-containerized MySQL server, it won't conflict.

I see. I don't want to take the risk to share MySQL Owncloud with this app.
If I install this in the Docker, I need to create another MySQL in Docker, right?

I haven't try out Docker, that's why I want to be sure.
I spent too much time on OMV server, and re-installed OC and MySQL a few times, it's PITA.

Thanks for the info.

@davidh2k how can i link a Docker file to my local mysql database?

Probably not the right forum here, but you have more than one option: either via network configuration providing access to the hosts database networt port or you can add a volume to the container mapping the hosts database socket directory to the container. The container then can connect to the socket file (e.g. /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock).
You could run the container with a volume like "-v /var/run/mysqld/:/var/run/mysqld/" to make the socket of the DB available inside the container...

The container requires the database client libs of course to connect to the DB.

Look here for the network option: http://stackoverflow.com/quest…the-localhost-of-the-mach

an NVR plug-in would be cool.

I have no idea what NVR is (even after a quick google search). A link to the home page is always helpful.

Sorry. NVR stands for Network Video Recorder. It's used to record and stream security camera footage.

Have you tried ZoneMinder?

After having converted from running OMV virtualized to running everything through OMV baremetal, pretty much 95% of what I was doing before has been handled very smoothly with the plugin system. Hats off to you guys as this is the true killer feature of OMV.

On my old platform, the hardest thing to set up was always my TV solution that fed into KODI and recording. TVHeadend, accessing my HDHomerun network tuner, and using mc2xml (and now zap2xml because the former is defunct) for free TV listings for USA ATSC broadcast always required a bit of digging and a lot of testing. It's a bit easier now because the latest versions of TVHeadend have HDHomerun support out of the box, so it's really just setting up zap2xml properly for free listings. It's the only thing I have yet to set up on my OMV box that is outside the plugin system.

Other things I would like in a perfect world are LXC containers. I used them prior and they worked great. I know Docker was built originally on LXC containers but I find LXC to be a bit easier to understand and use since its not as focused on microservice deployment and has more flexibility to do what you want with them. Basically, a competitor option to what I believe is your virtualbox plugin in function, not so much docker, although there is overlap. I don't know much about kernel requirements for LXC so maybe its not feasible at all here.
