This is honestly one of the kindest messages I’ve received. THANKS ❤.

I’m just tired of seeing every project full of soulless AI slop for fame.

I try to build things with intention, even if it’s not the “trend”, I prefer to stay aligned with what suits me :)

This alone is why I’m checking this out

Yes, of course, but I just think that when you make something and especially invite people to use it, you have to at least know what you’re doing, cuz I see a lot of people who promote open source, who want to contribute and so on, saying it’s free stuff, that’s okay, But throw something with AI, you don’t even know WTH you’re doing and you ask people to install your thing ? That’s where I really lose it tbh.

Thanks 🙌, appreciate it !

Thanks, there’s a demo if you want to try, just in case

YAY ! The goat 😆

Thank you, I am not aware of the risk with GitHub, can you tell me more?

how ? I just tried right now and it works, do you get an error or sum ?

Ah man, that actually means a lot. Timing is everything I guess 😅

Okay, I’m not taking responsibility for any divorces caused by Ideon 😹

Really glad you liked the demo though, that means a lot. I honestly didn’t expect people to seriously consider moving their whole setup.

For Obsidian migration, yes, I can absolutely make it happen. But I want to be transparent, it’ll take a bit of time to build something clean and reliable :)

of course, there is better, i made an installer that does everything for you, downloads the yaml, the env.example creates secrets, prompts for hostname, port, etc. and finally starts the containers, of course you still have the choice to say no at every step, or edit the .env manually, everything is in the repo (I tried to post it here but seems to be blocked by lemmy’s firewall :-/ )

I might be stupid, but I didn’t want to run the install script because I try and run everything via compose files in Komodo.

I don’t know if this helps, but this is what my compose looks like: (Side note, I just put the ENV values directly into the compose. I know this is not recommended, so I put the values to use if you actually mount the env_file like you’re supposed to. )

services:
# ------- Ideon-App -------

So far I love it. I wanted to use it locally for some low level importance notes before I try to move more over and set it up with an actual mounted env file on a VPS.

My only thought so far is that its not the greatest on mobile, but I’m really not certain what that would even look like. (Edit: I’m dumb. I didn’t close the sidebar. It actually looks pretty good on mobile. Ignore me.)

THANKS ! and yes from what I’ve read, I am strongly considering it

bro, there’s one container for the app, and one container for postgres, the all doesn’t surpass 500 Mo of RAM… where do you except to host the database ? Sorry If I sound a bit rude but you can always edit the .yaml manually to only launch the app, the app will use SQLite then, or configure an external postgres database via env :)

There is already a non-piped docker-compose setup. The installer just downloads the compose file and env.example, and you can also get them manually from GitHub.

You don’t need to set APP_PORT. If it’s unset, the app falls back to the PORT var provided by Portainer. Just make sure APP_URL exactly matches the root path you’re using behind Nginx.

I know from a friend his deployment running fine on Portainer, so it should work with a standard setup.
