Patched ONLYOFFICE Docs (Community Edition)
Notes
Please don't ask for setup support. I cannot support all your different setups. Sorry.
Please also don't ask OnlyOffice devs for support if something is broken with this image.
There will be bugs. Some functionaly will absolutely be broken. Don't expect this repository to provide every feature the paid version provides.
Some mobile editing features are reverted by the patches to very old code (before they were removed). This code can not only break but also will not receive security updates.
Features
This Dockerfile and patches compile a version of OnlyOffice Docs server with mobile editing enabled in the Nextcloud apps for an unlimited amount of concurrent users.
The patches provided in this repository only restores basic editing on mobile.
It can be integrated into e.g. Nextcloud or ownCloud like the official images.
Background
Just about two months after Nextcloud released their partnership with Ascensio and featured a community version of OnlyOffice, the latter decided to remove support for mobile editing of documents. This affected the Nextcloud app, killing a feature that was previously marketed by both companies.
The changes were executed without any prior notice and alienated quite a lot of home users, who would now be forced to pay more than €1.000 to unlock that previously free feature. Only after some outcries Ascensio deigned to release a statement and a new, albeit "limited", offer of €90 for home servers. This offer has since expired and their licensing tier suggests current licenses are valid for one year, starting at about €140.
In my opinion these deceptive practices of advertising a feature only to take it away are unacceptable for a company presenting itself and their products as open source.
Usage
Please refer the the official docs on how to integrate OnlyOffice into your setup.
