NodeBB as a pre-setup DigitalOcean Droplet; That would be nice

[bentael]

How come Ghost managed to get a pre-setup image on DigitalOcean?

@bentael

Why do I have this feeling that there are two parts to your question? What's the other part?

[bentael]

lol - yea, can NodeBB manage to be up there on that list?

[kevin]

@bentael they've already got 150+ themes on ThemeForest as well... harumf!

[finid]

@kevin

And most of those themes are fee-based, typically around $20 - $30.

We'd absolutely love to have an image set up for Digital Ocean... no clue where to go or who to contact about that one though...

I fired off a question asking them if they had any plans for a nodeBB droplet image through my account, will post back with the answer.

[Sp4rkR4t]

Ok here is the email they just fired back.

Hello,

We do not have plans that I am aware of for this image but I would recommend that the devs contact us at [email protected] to see if we can put something together.

Thanks
Ryan

@sp4rkr4t Yeeeeaaaaahhhhh! Doing that soon

[bentael]

Classy !

[bentael]

dead thread's back to life.

@julian did you end up following up with DigitalOcean about this?

[julian]

Yesh... they wanted NodeBB to be more popular first

Though I should reach out to them again and see. It'd be a real quick way to get up and running w/ NodeBB, and would help us out a bit if they used our refcode :shipit:

We could all spam them the same question. Also, send them to the github, the number of should tell them how much they're missing out on.

[Tanner]

@a_5mith Agreed. There's already enough of a following in my opinion, especially from the development world.

We'll see how the immediate future plays out though

[julian]

A quick update, I've been contacted by a community manager at DigitalOcean, and we're in the process of getting a one click image set up!

:metal: :shipit:

I am not there yet but my plan is to fix a docker package for Nodebb with a Gentoo base.

Here you can find my docker packages, feel free to use them. The java package is used for Minecraft servers

[bentael]

@julian sweet !

[Nur]

@a_5mith can i still spam do or was the campaign over? :bowtie:

[julian]

Never hurts to give them a reminder

[rnovino]

how about for linode? looking forward also for that feature or any script to make it easier to install nodebb
