## Nextcloud container with preinstalled video preview generation

These are container images built using the official Nextcloud Apache images as
source, adding the required packages to generate video previews.

Starting from 24.0.9 and 25.0.3 `supervisord` is no longer installed. A separate
cron container is recommended as per upstream recommendations.

I'll try to keep up with Nextcloud's upstream releases.
The build itself is automated, but requires a tag to be pushed before triggering,
so there may be a slight delay before a new image version is built. The plan is to
automate the whole process to automatically build images after upstream release.

## Usage
For instructions on using these images, go to https://github.com/nextcloud/docker
and https://docs.nextcloud.com/.

Simply use `ghcr.io/0ranki/nextcloud-previews/nextcloud:<version>`
instead of `docker.io/library/nextcloud`. A `latest` tag is also included, but since
the process of tagging it is manual, you should check that the digests match with the
latest versioned image, in case I forgot to tag it.

To pull e.g. version 24.0.3:
```
podman pull ghcr.io/0ranki/nextcloud-previews/nextcloud:24.0.3
```

The images have a convenience script installed that modifies `config.php` to actually
enable the video preview generation. To use it, finish the first run wizard first, then
```
podman run <name-of-nc-container> enable-previews
```
if using podman. If using docker substitute `podman` with `docker`. The script makes
a backup copy of `config.php` starting from versions 23.0.7 and 24.0.3 (noticed that
feature missing a bit late)
