Applications

Administrators can read how to use the Dashboard in Manage Stackspin

Grafana

Onlyoffice

Onlyoffice is an online document editing suite. Your can open documents in Onlyoffice by clicking them in Nextcloud. You can open new documents by clicking the “Plus” button in Nextcloud and selecting Document, Spreadsheet or Presentation.

Zulip

Zulip is a team chat application.

Roles management

Unfortunately, Zulip does not yet listen to the Stackspin roles, so once you have installed Zulip, you need to make one of your users the owner. That allows this user to manage Zulip’s settings from inside the application. This owner can also edit other users’ roles.

For this, you have to replace <your email> in the the following command and run it on your cluster:

` kubectl exec -n stackspin-apps zulip-0 -c zulip -- sudo -u zulip /home/zulip/deployments/current/manage.py change_user_role <your email> owner --realm 2 `

Single sign-off

It is currently impossible to log out of the single sign-on system by logging out of Zulip. This is due to a limitation in Zulip. This means that if you want to log into Zulip under a different account, you need to logout through the Dashboard or another application first. You can also visit https://sso.stackspin.example.com/oauth2/sessions/logout in your browser to end the SSO session.

Wekan

Wekan is a Kanban board application.

Single sign-off

It is currently impossible to log out of the single sign-on system by logging out of Wekan. This is due to a limitation in Wekan. This means that if you want to log into Wekan under a different account, you need to logout through the Dashboard or another application first. You can also visit https://sso.stackspin.example.com/oauth2/sessions/logout in your browser to end the SSO session.

WordPress

WordPress is a website content management system.

Roles management

If you want admin privileges inside WordPress, you need to set this in the Dashboard. Then, you need to log in to WordPress again.

If this is your first time logging in to WordPress, you have to log out and in again for your admin privileges to be applied.
