[App Request] Invidious

[ghost]

App Information

• Name: Invidious
• Short Description: open source alternative front-end to YouTube.
• Official Website: https://invidious.io/
• GitHub Repository: https://github.com/iv-org/invidious
• Docker Image: https://quay.io/repository/invidious/invidious

Why do you want this app?

It is an unparalleled alternative to Youtube's front end and one that respects your privacy. Setup process is a breeze, however since CasaOS does not support importing multiple services via docker-compose, transferring it to CasaOS is a bit more complex. Adding it to the app store would be a welcome addition.

Additional information?

The Invidious docker image is only available on Quay because, unlike Docker Hub, Quay is Free and Open Source Software.

Ample documentation available at https://docs.invidious.io/installation/

I have been trying to install Invidious manually to no success. Not on Cacaos at least, I managed to get it running locally, with the same script, but when I import it into Cacaos I just get a blank settings screen, so apparently it wasn't in the mood.

And even when I got a window that worked, I get a 502 error for a bad gateway, when trying to launch. It might be because of the Quay image? There is a docker image, but it is not official, and I got the same results.

As stated in the documentation, I first had to pull the Invidious repo, but I have got quite used to ssh into Cacaos to get what I want.

I did have to change the port, already had something running on 3000.

Cacaos also doest know how to parse the nested environment from the Invidious docker compose file.

        db:
          dbname: invidious
          user: kemal
          password: kemal
          host: invidious-db
          port: 5432

This just becomes one variable, with everything else inside it. I flattened it to:

INVIDIOUS_DB_DBNAME: invidious
INVIDIOUS_DB_USER: kemal 
INVIDIOUS_DB_PASSWORD: kemal
INVIDIOUS_DB_HOST: invidious-db
INVIDIOUS_DB_PORT: 5432
INVIDIOUS_CHECK_TABLES: true
INVIDIOUS_HMAC_KEY: "Cahnge me to a random 20 char password"

I don't know any more, this was a rather frustrating afternoon, so I leave you with my docker fill, and I will return when this is an item in the store, or somebody else manages to get it up and running.
