Integrating OnlyOffice with NextCloud
-
Hello, I represent ONLYOFFICE here, and I can answer your questions, although @scottalanmiller has already done my job, I think)
We have both free and commercial builds. Just take ONLYOFFICE Community Edition (to be more exact Document Server that is a part of CE) if you need a free one. It is easy.
-
Just install our Document Server. We recommend using Docker https://helpcenter.onlyoffice.com/server/docker/document/docker-installation.aspx
-
Get the integration app from the Nextcloud App Store https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/onlyoffice
-
Go to the Nextcloud settings and do this https://monosnap.com/file/X8NYAafxd9gxiBSDFIEQwBWNLPxYZQ
CE has some limitations - up to 20 users. The license is AGPL v3
Integration Edition (IE) is a commercial build, a way of delivering our Document Server to enterprises.
The source code of Document Server is open and available on GitHub, so both CE and IE are open source.
Sorry if our website seemed complicated, the thing is that we have many products - for home users, SMBs, for developers, and so on. But I here to answer the questions, really sorry that I missed previous ones.

Also, I have some great news! ONLYOFFICE and Nextcloud formed an official technological partnership which means that we are ready to enhance our integration. How? We wrote a blog post about it. Brief overview:
What has been done:
-
Sharing via public link
-
Easier work with OpenDocument
-
Virtual app appliances installation (the easiest way to install the ONLYOFFICE+Nextcloud combo).
Plans
-
Connecting ONLYOFFICE desktop
-
Inserting images from the file manager
-
Force Save
-
Converted file downloading from the file manager.
-
Sharing from the editor

@hellonadya something I'd love to see is a clear "how to" on your website of using an external reverse proxy. The current instructions expect that the proxy is local (on the same box as NextCloud and OnlyOffice) and when the parts are on three different servers, things work a bit differently.
-
@scottalanmiller ok, we'll try to do this :smiling_face:

Awesome, thanks. There are just a few details that differ and are confusing because the standard docs don't apply and there isn't clear documentation (that I've found) that expresses what the systems are really looking for.
-
@scottalanmiller you can DM me what problems you've had. Maybe I will be able to have the answers sooner

I just did this with Nextcloud 17.0.1 and OnlyOffice 5.4.2, running on separate Debian 10 instances.
I'll get a guide wrote up sometime I hope. I need to replicate this out, so I will likely have time to do so.
I used this out of date guide as my main reference since everything was on Debian.
https://www.linuxbabe.com/ubuntu/integrate-nextcloud-onlyofficeIt had issues of course. all guides tend to as they age. but it was close enough.

both NC and OO are running certbot themselves because bad planning. i have 60 days until NC renews and 90 until OO renews to look at WTF I did here and clean it up.

Why is that bad planning?

I would assume because 1 cert would be enough to cover the entire site.

Because things were rush/done without full planning for what was needed to make things happen correctly.
That was not my thing. But the thing I'm presented with now. I can fix it. Just annoying.
