docs VS snapdrop

I will recommend you review the documentation for the official Postgresql docker images which you can read here.

This is the full documentation for these images. Please note, this page has links to Docker official documents on volumes, etc., which are necessary to run images such as this.

We've just followed the official documentation to add a PostgreSQL database server. This will act as an application container, as our app will soon be depended on it. And in order to make sure that the database container is always started whenever we start our application container, we've added a new depends_on key to the app service and let it know which other service(s) it, well, depends on. This will make sure that the database server is up and running before the app. You may also have noticed that we've mounted volume to our database server's datapath a bit differently. This is known as "named volume". We'll discuss it a bit more in another part, it's not relevant to what we're learning here.

Nextcloud isn't hard to setup, follow the official doc https://github.com/docker-library/docs/blob/master/nextcloud/README.md

Looking at the setup for this (link here: https://github.com/docker-library/docs/blob/master/nextcloud/README.md), I am starting to understand a lot of the recent posts that we've seen & how much of a mess it still is :(

Coming back to nextcloud, the official readme of the nextcloud image has a few notes on how to set up both nextcloud versions.

Use the native command envstubst to replace the Auth Tokens in your Config File before starting NGINX. Example: https://github.com/docker-library/docs/tree/master/nginx#using-environment-variables-in-nginx-configuration-new-in-119

It's not clear why you want to split the web server (nginx) and the app (nextcloud). However, if you do have a good reason, you're in luck, they have a compose file that does just that: https://github.com/docker-library/docs/blob/master/nextcloud/README.md#base-version---fpm (version 2, but it'll work)

Snapdrop.net is one of many examples of the uses for this API, using it with WebSocket API allows endpoints on the same local network to distribute files and send data between them. We can find the source code for the project here.

similar: I have been using https://snapdrop.net/ for a few years now.

Localsend for sharing files once in a while, snapdrop is an online alternative. Syncthing to sync folders between devices.

I can’t 100% vouch for it, but snapdrop.net seems like a good cross platform option here.

https://snapdrop.net/. Been using it for years for quick iOS > Windows transfers. Works great and unique names mean you know what device you’re sending to!

I use snapdrop.net. Doesn't necessarily need an app.
