  • Why do so many services require email configuration?

    Jump

  • Exactly for the reason you said. They don't care about your privacy they want your verified email address to sell to the higher bidder.

  • Self hosting Sunday! What's up, selfhosters?

  • I tried silver bullet too. Problem with all note taking/knowledge management app are they are just that note taking app not Journaling app and miss all core aspect of journaling.

  • Cool. Makes sense. Can I request you to open a issue on github to track this? Thanks.

  • Thanks! My main focus right now is simply building the product, the license doesn’t matter much if the product itself isn’t good yet. It’s always easier to move to a less restrictive license later than to go the other way, so this is the approach I’m starting with.

  • non-docker ways will come later. Stay tuned!

  • Thank you for adopting Journiv! Yes the export will be added. I do agree with you that a human accessible export is very important. I am a software engineer who knows how to make docker backups etc etc but I never do it :) I know I can set it be automated but the friction is too high to do it.

    Journiv is being built for out of need and to be the solution of owning memory so it long term strategy is at it's core. I am personally using it for all my memories with my young family so it will be devastating to lose it because of backup friction.

    My plan for Journiv is:

    1. 1 Click export which periodically created a static HTML site with all the entries and media. Zips it and put in local location configured by user. Since journiv run in a docker container the first phase will be putting it but not tied to docker container lifecycle. Second phase will be integration with a network file share where Journiv can automatically dump the export. Once I configure it I want it to just work not fiddle or worry about making backup. If backup fails I get some discord/telegram notification or within Journiv app.
    2. Flat JSON export with media. HTML static site will allow user to see entries but JSON export is critical so that the entries can also be exported some where else if the need be.

  • You can if you can run docker on it. As of now that is the documented path. It is possible to run it without docker but that need some documentation.

  • Thanks. Export will be added pretty soon. As of now you can export entries in PDF as that was one of the most requested feature. Since the beauty of self hosting is that all the data lives on your machine. You have it with you all the time. It is just a database (sqllite or postgres) and all your media files under a directory. Back up is pretty simple you just backup the docker volume or the bind mount directory which is standard for docker.

    Although I do want to add a more human accessible export output which people who do not want to deal with db can use.

    What kind of export would you like to see?

  • Yes, mobile clients are coming. I want to have adoption and sustainability before investing time and resources in launching mobile clients. That is the reason why they will come little after. There has been lot of interest and appreciation for the app as you can see in github issues so stay tuned.

  • Thank you. Yes, desktop native app, mobile apps. All are planned and will come. Cross platform support was important to so people can run it on all platform. Hence the frontend is in Flutter which for most part is cross platform.

    Although this so far have been hundreds of hours of work and there is much more upcoming to build it so as of now I am trying to make this project sustainable so I can continue working on it and it develops to the shape I want it to be.

    Stay tuned!

  • Hello, Thanks for your interest. It is possible but a little work as it will require one to have Python interpreter installed and do few things to run it. Yes, thise instructions are not there. I will add them. Do you have Python installed?
