• Start Collabora Server with default settings

  $ docker run -t -d -p 9980:9980 -e "extra_params=--o:ssl.enable=false" -e "username=admin" -e "password=admin" --name collabora --cap-add MKNOD collabora/code:6.4.8.6
  

• Access Collabora Admin at http://[your-host-public-ip]:9980/loleaflet/dist/admin/admin.html e.g. 172.16.12.95,

• Set in Settings -> Admin -> Additional -> Collabora Online server -> http://[your-host-public-ip]:9980

NOTE: Collabora server needs to be reachable from ownCloud server, and Collabora server needs to be able to reach ownCloud server

NOTE: it is possible to use Collabora Online’s integration with re-compiled and/or re-branded backends.

You will need:

• ownCloud server with ownCloud Web (it can be compiled from source code or installed from the official marketplace).
• Official ownCloud Collabora Online integration app. You can install it from the ownCloud marketplace.

To enable work within ownCloud web, register the connector in the ownCloud Web config.json:

• If you installed ownCloud Web from the official marketplace, the path is <owncloud-root-catalog>/config/config.json
• If you compiled it from source code yourself using this instruction, the path is <owncloud-web-root-catalog>/config/config.json.

To register the connector, use these lines:

"external_apps": [
    {
        "id": "richdocuments",
        "path": "http(s)://<owncloud-10-server-address>/index.php/apps/richdocuments/js/richdocuments.js"
    }
]

Build all the dependencies:

yarn install

Build the resulting file js/web/richdocuments.js:

yarn build
