Yes a one-click install would be nice but you can run it locally on your computer. I didn't go the docker route, didn't even check for dependencies - just downloaded and ran the jar file they provided and it worked! Not sure if all of the features will work - I only tried a few. They have a survey going on now and if enough people ask them to bundle everything in a flatpak and snap, perhaps they'll consider a desktop app...

@marcq1588 Месяц назад

One issue is that it can not be used as default application for the PDF files in the system? You always have to launch your docker container if not yet running, then go to the URL, then open your file selection dialog, blah blah blah. You can't just double-click your PDF file and see it open in your Stirling application? That is a bummer and probably a reason why enterprises and individuals might not use it. Only people who have to manipulate PDF files will want this, but it can't be used as a default PDF viewer, for which Acrobat Reader is still free. But it is a great free alternative to Acrobat Pro or other paid PDF applications. Thank your for this video.

@AwesomeOpenSource Месяц назад

True, this is not going to be your default viewer, but you don't need Acrobat. PDF will open in any modern browser, and there are multiple open source applications that can open and display PDFs on all of the OSes out there.

Amazing app. It's a shame it's so cumbersome to setup and install. I wonder why it can't be install through a simple Flatpak or snap

@AwesomeOpenSource Месяц назад

It's a web application which requires a web server to run, but I suppose someone could potentially turn i into an electron app, where electron just points to the web application running. Not sure what that would take, but it would then go into the flatpak and / or snap store.

Месяц назад

@@AwesomeOpenSource thanks for your reply. I get it, that would make it necessary for someone to host the app to make it available then of course.

@domojestic4155 Месяц назад

A question that's likely better suited for the devs, but why make this a "self-hosted" web application at all? Why not just make this an installable app? I feel like having to setup a server just to edit PDFs is a massively unnecessary hurdle, especially for the layman. Doesn't this worsen the problem of open-source solution only being for techies?

@AwesomeOpenSource Месяц назад

You could always ask about potentially having this made into an Electron or Neutralino JS application. That would make it more of a Desktop app.

@domojestic4155 Месяц назад

@@AwesomeOpenSource I actually made a discussion post on their repo, and they mentioned Electron! However, they let me know that setting it up as a server-side Docker webapp was easier for them at the outset, and that porting it over to a different format would likely take development time and money they simply don't have. Time to take the wallets out, I suppose! 😃

@youtubeviewer7077 Месяц назад

Looks useful, thanks! It's unfortunate they made it a web server in a container rather than a native Gtk/Qt app. Having to run a container and web browser to use seems really bloated and inconvenient and the upload/download file flow seems kind of awkward. Still, it looks like a handy wrapper for all the various PDF tools.

@AwesomeOpenSource Месяц назад

I think it being a web app is nice, as I can run it on one machine, and access the tool from any machine on my network. No need to install it over and over and over, and I can use it on my mobile devices as well.

@Albertkallal Месяц назад

@@AwesomeOpenSource I'll have to give it a try. You can google pdf overprint simulation. All this means is that for print ready PDF's, then the concept is that you lay down colors as ink, and thus the PDF document will look rather ugly if you don't turn on overprint simulation. Overprint simulation thus renders the PDF correctly when viewing it, since it can "simulate" laying layers of ink down on paper. So, for corporate logos etc., then without overprint simulation, then things don't render correctly. I'm Actually looking for a web based PDF viewer that has this feature.

thanks for this video! I followed everything and for some strange reason I get tons of errors and the application does not come up properly. anyone else is having this issue? The 1st of many error messages I get is: Stirling-PDF | 14:31:35,617 |-ERROR in ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender[AUTHLOG] - openFile(logs/invalid-auths.log,true) call failed. java.io.FileNotFoundException: logs/invalid-auths.log (Permission denied) I have confirmed the folders created that are attached to the docker are all have proper access rights. it looks like there is something within the container that is throwing the exception thanks in advance!

I think you may just have a permissions issue on one of your folders or volumes.
