Directus App

About

Directus is an Instant App & API for your SQL Database.

Login

Cloudron Directory

By default, local users (including the auto-created admin user) are allowed to login along with Cloudron Directory users. To disable this, set the following in /app/data/env.sh using the File manager and restart the app.

export AUTH_DISABLE_DEFAULT="true" # no local user login

By default, Cloudron users are given the built-in Adminstrator role. You can create another role and assign this as the default instead. To do so, set the following in /app/data/env.sh using the File manager and restart the app.

export AUTH_CLOUDRON_DEFAULT_ROLE_ID=<id of role>

Environment variables

Custom environment variables can be set in /app/data/env.sh using the File manager.

Be sure to restart the app after making any changes.

Extensions

Directus has a number of extensions.

On Cloudron, extensions are installed in the extensions folder. This is set to /app/data/extensions.

We have a helper script at /app/pkg/install-extension.sh to install extensions:

# /app/pkg/install-extension.sh directus-extension-wpslug-interface

added 1 package in 1s

Restart Directus to enable the extension

Killed

If the script above ends with Killed, it means that it got killed by the out of memory killer. To fix this, increase the memory limit of the app to say 2GB and re-run the script.
