dokku-letsencrypt VS Ghost

# plugin installation requires root, hence the user change sudo dokku plugin:install https://github.com/dokku/dokku-letsencrypt.git

downloads and installs dokku-letsencrypt on server

$ sudo dokku plugin:install https://github.com/dokku/dokku-letsencrypt.git $ dokku config:set --global [email protected] $ dokku domains:set app-name your-domain.com $ dokku letsencrypt:enable app-name $ dokku letsencrypt:cron-job --add

You need SSL certificate for your website. With Dokku you can add it in several ways, using official Let's Encypt plugin, or using your own certificate, or using a Cloudflare SSL. Any of these do, but don't neglect this step.

There are env vars you need to configure so let’s encrypt knows your email address. The plugin docs are worth reading: https://github.com/dokku/dokku-letsencrypt

# on Dokku host sudo dokku plugin:install https://github.com/dokku/dokku-letsencrypt.git

Right now (when I wrote this post), there is no wildcard support from dokku-letsencrypt plugin. Luckily, Dokku itself can use certificates from other sources.

As you may have noticed, our application is available on our Dokku host now – but only in an unencrypted fashion (note the lack of https in the address bar). Thankfully, we live in the age of LetsEncrypt offering free TLS certificates, and Dokku makes it easy to enable automatic certificate retrieval and setup for our application via the dokku-letsencrypt plugin. I strongly recommend setting up this plugin so that people using our application can enjoy securely encrypted web-traffic. Once installed (see installation and initial setup instructions), we can enable the LetsEncrypt integration for our application with a single command:

Diversifying a lot. Next acquisition will be Ghost(https://ghost.org/) I bet. Similar DNA, fits in the portfolio (If they are trying to match the feature set of Google) and have no VC backing.

For example, if you are in a country where you can accept Stripe and are publishing a newsletter through, Substack or using the Ghost platform, enabling the ability to accept payments is a few clicks away. For those who cannot accept payment with Stripe, well, you are up the creek without a paddle. I do not know about you, but I see that as a barrier to access.

This response from one of the Tea developers seems disingenuous https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/pull/19743#issuecomment-19...

How could they not have predicted this outcome?

glee our dev friendly blogging setup has been undergoing a huge transformation for the last few weeks. For those who don't know, glee is a simple open source CLI tool that converts markdown posts into ghost blog posts.

Ghost: The Underground Storyteller

Ghost is used by creators to run their own website to publish private content

Not the OP but it looks to be https://ghost.org/

I use it as well for a small development blog and it's been an enjoyable experience

PlanetScale and Ghost were previously incompatible due to differences in their support for foreign key constraints. With PlanetScale now supporting foreign key constraints, a seamless collaboration between the two is achievable. Nonetheless, there remain minor incompatibilities that require resolution.

I'm a big fan of Ghost for new blogs https://github.com/tryghost/ghost
