[App Request] Firefly III

regassa22 commented 5 months ago

App Information

Name: Firefly III
Short Description: Personal finances manager
Official Website: https://firefly-iii.org/
GitHub Repository: https://github.com/firefly-iii/firefly-iii
Docker Image: fireflyiii/core:latest

Why do you want this app?

I don't think there is a more complete option than this application for managing personal finances. Another detail is that it is extremely difficult to install on CasaOS (I haven't managed it so far because I'm a newbie) and I can't find tutorials for either CasaOS or portainer, which help me when installing.

Additional information?

This is how I manage to install Firefly III in CasaOS using manual install:

Click on the + button and Install a customized app
Click on the import button (located on the top right, next to the X to close)
In the Docker Compose Window paste the following:

You will see a warning about needing to configure other things, it's fine, click Ok
Now you will have the following window (DO NOT CLICK INSTALL YET)
First give the App a name on the Title field
Now add the web UI host and port (i.e. 192.168.1.32 : 80)

Note: If you change the port here you MUST change it in the Port section too.
Now you have to change some other things in the Environment Variables section:

APP_KEY: You must add your random app key here. 32 Chars long exactly, you can generate one here: random password generator.
APP_URL: Here you can put your IP address or hostname, it's not important afaik.
SITE_OWNER: Here you put your email
STATIC_CRON_TOKEN: Here you can generate another token with the password generator, 32 chars long. (or reuse the one you generated for APP_KEY)
TZ: Paste your TimeZone here, Like: America/New York. To check the list of time zones, see: Wikipedia
These are the mandatory variables to change, to check the full variables see the .env file you posted above.

Now, go to the db tab above and change the environment variables if you need to (like the DB password if you changed it above):
Finally go to the cron tab above and under container command you will see a __ that you MUST replace with the token you generated in step 8.
Click on Install, if everything is fine, now you should see the Installing window
After install is complete now you can navigate to your instance in the HOST:PORT address you configured:

Note: One thing to notice is that CasaOS doesn't have support for env files right now so better is to create a _dockercompose.yml file with every environment variable in the environment section and import it to CasaOS.

Hope this helps!

If you need help don't hesitate on comment here.

regassa22 commented 4 months ago

Thank you so much @jkano ! I will try to install in the next days and i will post here the result

regassa22 commented 3 months ago

@jkano , it worked!! Thank you so much!

I only noticed now, but the app is with this strange name on it (as the image shows). I'm asking my self now, have i done something wrong?

Other question: How do i keep the app updated (or it's automatically updated)?

And, for last, i didn't get it when you said:

If it's working, do i need to do something else?

jkano commented 3 months ago

@regassa22 glad it worked for you!

Regarding the app name, did you fill the Title field in step 6? I think if you don’t add a title it will put the random generated name that Docker puts to the container.

You can check if it has a name by clicking the three dots in the app icon and clicking on Settings:

Settings

Then, inside firefly settings (make sure the selected tab is firefly) you can set a name for the App (Title field) and save it:

Firefly name

And about last part (my comment about the env files) you don’t have to do anything else, the file that I gave to you already had the env file info inside it. That was only a comment saying that CasaOS doesn’t support env files so you have to manually add all the options inside the env file to a manual installation.

Regarding how to update the app, I can give you a guide on how to do it, it’s not that hard but you have to do it correctly because you may lose your data.

regassa22 commented 3 months ago

Do you mind to share how to install the Firefly Data Import Tool? @jkano

jkano commented 3 months ago

@regassa22 sure.

Please follow the next steps to install the Firefly Importer as a separate app in Casa OS:

Open your Firefly app and go to your profile (Left menu - Options - Profile)
Click on the OAuth tab
Inside OAuth Clients click on Create new client and fill as shown

Now you should see a new Client created, write down the Client ID number.

Return to CasaOS, now click on the + button and Install a customized app
Click on the import button (located on the top right, next to the X to close)
In the Docker Compose Window paste the following and click submit:

View file

#### firefly-importer.yml ``` name: firefly-importer services: importer: image: fireflyiii/data-importer:latest hostname: importer restart: always container_name: firefly-importer ports: - '81:8080' environment: - FIREFLY_III_URL= - VANITY_URL= - FIREFLY_III_CLIENT_ID= - TZ= - FIREFLY_III_ACCESS_TOKEN= - NORDIGEN_ID= - NORDIGEN_KEY= - NORDIGEN_SANDBOX=false - SPECTRE_APP_ID= - SPECTRE_SECRET= - USE_CACHE=false - IGNORE_DUPLICATE_ERRORS=false - AUTO_IMPORT_SECRET= - CAN_POST_AUTOIMPORT=false - CAN_POST_FILES=false - IMPORT_DIR_ALLOWLIST= - VERIFY_TLS_SECURITY=true - JSON_CONFIGURATION_DIR= - CONNECTION_TIMEOUT=31.41 - APP_ENV=local - APP_DEBUG=false - LOG_CHANNEL=stack - LOG_RETURN_JSON=false - LOG_LEVEL=debug - TRUSTED_PROXIES= - ASSET_URL= - ENABLE_MAIL_REPORT=false - EXPECT_SECURE_URL=false - MAIL_MAILER= - MAIL_DESTINATION=noreply@example.com - MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS=noreply@example.com - MAIL_HOST=smtp.mailtrap.io - MAIL_PORT=2525 - MAIL_USERNAME=username - MAIL_PASSWORD=password - MAIL_ENCRYPTION=null - MAILGUN_DOMAIN= - MAILGUN_SECRET= - MAILGUN_ENDPOINT= - POSTMARK_TOKEN= - BROADCAST_DRIVER=log - CACHE_DRIVER=file - QUEUE_CONNECTION=sync - SESSION_DRIVER=file - SESSION_LIFETIME=120 - IS_EXTERNAL=false - REDIS_HOST=127.0.0.1 - REDIS_PASSWORD=null - REDIS_PORT=6379 - REDIS_DB="0" - REDIS_CACHE_DB="1" - TRACKER_SITE_ID= - TRACKER_URL= - APP_NAME=DataImporter ```

You will see the following window as when installing Firefly the first time:

Edit the following options:

Title: Put whatever you want to name your app here (i.e. Firefly Importer)
Icon URL: Leave blank to have a generic icon
Network: Select whatever network is inside the Bridge section, not HO
Web UI: 

This has 4 parts:
- Protocol: http://
- The IP or your device (i.e. 192.168.1.3)
- Port: 81
- /

Environment variables:

FIREFLY_III_URL: Here you add your firefly URL (i.e: your IP, http://192.168.1.3:80)
VANITY_URL: Same URL as FIREFLY_III_URL
FIREFLY_III_CLIENT_ID: Here you put the number you wrote down on step 4
TZ: Your timeZone, you can use the same as when you created firefly (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones)

Now click on Install, Casa OS should start installing:

Now you should have the Firefly Importer installed:

Click on it and it should open:

Click on Authorize and now you should see your Firefly Data Import tool

jkano commented 3 months ago

Oh, and to update the app:

There is a manual way and an automatic way, but I'm not sure if the automatic way works because Firefly haven't had any update since I installed it, I'm on last version 6.1.10.

The automatic way should work by clicking on the three dots in the app and click on Check then update

But I havent tested it as there are no updates yet.

The manual way is a little bit more risky, but you can do this:

Click on the three dots on Firefly app, then on Settings
In the Window you see, click on the Top right button Export Compose File
Save your Firefly.yaml file inside your computer (you will need it later)
Close the Settings Window.
Open again the three dot menu and now click on Uninstall

⚠️BEWARE: Do NOT check the Delete userdata (config folder) or you will lose everything!

Now you should have your Firefly uninstalled.
Now proceed to install it again by going to the plus button ( + ) and click on Install a customized app
But now, you click on the top button Import, and click on the section that says Drop your Docker compose here or click to upload

Locate the file you saved on step 3, open it and click on Submit
Now click on Install (You shouldn't have to edit any option because everything should be already filled by the file you saved)
Now you should have your Firefly installation back again and updated to the last version

ℹ️ I'm going to test whenever Firefly release a new update if the Check then update option works and I post here so you dont have to do it manually.

Hi @jkano, I followed your guide and I installed Firefly III on my zima board, unfortunatly after a device reboot it seems that the system fails to boot Firefly III (I just see the cron process on the process list). Any advice?

joaonscarvalho commented 1 week ago

Did you learned how to solve it? I'm facing the same problem but in ubuntu CasaOS

jkano commented 1 week ago

Weird, that does not happen to me. What do you see in casa OS? Maybe you can try to check CasaOS logs to see why your firefly iii instance is not booting up. Mine works after restarts.

joaonscarvalho commented 1 week ago

Thank you. I restarted CasaOS and the same issue occurred. With Nextcloud, simply entering the settings and clicking save without making any changes restores normal functionality. However, with Firefly III, if I do the same (enter settings and click save), I can access it, but it redirects directly to the registration page. This is happening on the second different installation of CasaOS that I have done, and the logs do not provide much information

jkano commented 1 week ago

So, even after changing it to unless-stopped is not booting up on restart? Or now is booting up but then you see the registration screen?

It will be easier to debug if you can share screenshots of your configuration for firefly III on casaOS. Firefly being asking for registration on boot suggests something is not correctly configured on the data volume or location.

joaonscarvalho commented 1 week ago

It does not start until I enter the settings and save. However, it always redirects to the registration window. If I click on sign in, the page returns to the registration window.

Here are my configuration. And thank you for you support!

jkano commented 1 week ago

I see what is the issue here. You setup your containers to run in the /tmp folder, which is purged (emptied) after a reboot by Linux OS.

So, by changing the configuration to save the data in other folder like /home// it should work (also uncheck all 3 of the containers to run without priviledges because they don't need it anymore).

joaonscarvalho commented 1 week ago

Extraordinary! It’s working now! Thank you very much, the issue was indeed with the temporary folder. I created new ones, pointed the containers to them, and restarted CasaOS without losing the Firefly data. Thank you very much!
