  • Journiv v0.1.0-beta.8: This Thanksgiving, give your family the gift of memories that last forever

    Jump

  • I am not sure where this thread is going. I don't see it adding any value to the discussion or the project. If you have any specific feedback on how to make the project better. I will love to hear that.

    I am also not sure how nitpicking on choice of word is helpful here. People can interpret things differently and above is your interpretation.

    To provide context on why the post has that sentence:

  • Journiv v0.1.0-beta.8: This Thanksgiving, give your family the gift of memories that last forever

    Jump

  • Thank you. Yes, at some point. It is totally doable but I haven't had a chance to look into building standalone desktop apps yet. As of now it is possible to run this manually outside of docker: https://journiv.com/docs/installation/manual

  • Thank you using Journiv. Please report and feature request or bugs on Github. Regarding how long term:

    • It is very dependent on the support and sustainability the project gets from the community. So if you feel the project makes your life better and is valuable to you then definitely consider contributing and supporting it https://journiv.com/sponsors
    • Journiv, core mission is to let users completely control their data and enable freedom to do whatever they wan't with it. So open data formats and robust export is being built from day one. Journiv-viewer (coming soon https://journiv.com/docs/guides/journiv-viewer#exporting-to-markdown) allow users to access their journiv export as HTML webpages completely client side and standalone HTML pages. So even if you don't have journiv instance running years down the line you have easy access to your journals. This viewer can also generate markdown export zips with frontmatter which can then be imported to any markdown viewer or note app which support markdown without any metadata loss.

  • The article and discussion here is about open source software which is not free software. Thats where the problem lies it is assumed that open source software has be free.

    Freedom in software does not mean free software.

  • It’s funny how common this mindset is in the self-hosting community: “If I’m running it on my own hardware, the software should basically be free… maybe I’ll toss a tiny ‘tip’ if I feel generous.”

    The logic seems to be that since there’s no ongoing server cost, the developer’s time, skill, and effort must somehow be worth nothing and that we should magically fund the entire project through some hypothetical cloud version that they themselves will never use.

    It’s like showing up to a brewery with your own growler and expecting the beer to be free because you didn’t use their glass.

  • Self hosting Sunday! What's up, selfhosters?

  • Definitely!

  • Why do so many services require email configuration?

    Jump

  • Exactly for the reason you said. They don't care about your privacy they want your verified email address to sell to the higher bidder.

  • I tried silver bullet too. Problem with all note taking/knowledge management app are they are just that note taking app not Journaling app and miss all core aspect of journaling.

  • Cool. Makes sense. Can I request you to open a issue on github to track this? Thanks.

  • Thank you for adopting Journiv! Yes the export will be added. I do agree with you that a human accessible export is very important. I am a software engineer who knows how to make docker backups etc etc but I never do it :) I know I can set it be automated but the friction is too high to do it.

    Journiv is being built for out of need and to be the solution of owning memory so it long term strategy is at it's core. I am personally using it for all my memories with my young family so it will be devastating to lose it because of backup friction.

    My plan for Journiv is:

    1. 1 Click export which periodically created a static HTML site with all the entries and media. Zips it and put in local location configured by user. Since journiv run in a docker container the first phase will be putting it but not tied to docker container lifecycle. Second phase will be integration with a network file share where Journiv can automatically dump the export. Once I configure it I want it to just work not fiddle or worry about making backup. If backup fails I get some discord/telegram notification or within Journiv app.
    2. Flat JSON export with media. HTML static site will allow user to see entries but JSON export is critical so that the entries can also be exported some where else if the need be.

  • Thanks. Export will be added pretty soon. As of now you can export entries in PDF as that was one of the most requested feature. Since the beauty of self hosting is that all the data lives on your machine. You have it with you all the time. It is just a database (sqllite or postgres) and all your media files under a directory. Back up is pretty simple you just backup the docker volume or the bind mount directory which is standard for docker.

    Although I do want to add a more human accessible export output which people who do not want to deal with db can use.

    What kind of export would you like to see?

  • Yes, mobile clients are coming. I want to have adoption and sustainability before investing time and resources in launching mobile clients. That is the reason why they will come little after. There has been lot of interest and appreciation for the app as you can see in github issues so stay tuned.

  • Thank you. Yes, desktop native app, mobile apps. All are planned and will come. Cross platform support was important to so people can run it on all platform. Hence the frontend is in Flutter which for most part is cross platform.

    Although this so far have been hundreds of hours of work and there is much more upcoming to build it so as of now I am trying to make this project sustainable so I can continue working on it and it develops to the shape I want it to be.

    Stay tuned!
