There are several questions and issues that come up from time to time. Here are some answers.
|
|
Please note that the existence of some questions is due the application not being perfect in some parts.
|
|
Many of those shortcomings are planned to be fixed in future release but simply could not be addressed yet due to time limits.
|
|
|
|
## Is there a Tandoor app?
|
|
Tandoor can be installed as a progressive web app (PWA) on mobile and desktop devices. The PWA stores recently accessed recipes locally for offline use.
|
|
|
|
### Mobile browsers
|
|
|
|
#### Safari (iPhone/iPad)
|
|
Open Tandoor, click Safari's share button, select `Add to Home Screen`
|
|
|
|
### Chrome/Chromium
|
|
Open Tandoor, click the `add Tandoor to the home screen` message that pops up at the bottom of the screen
|
|
|
|
### Desktop browsers
|
|
|
|
#### Google Chrome
|
|
Open Tandoor, open the menu behind the three vertical dots at the top right, select `Install Tandoor Recipes...`
|
|
|
|
#### Microsoft Edge
|
|
Open Tandoor, open the menu behind the three horizontal dots at the top right, select `Apps > Install Tandoor Recipes`
|
|
|
|
## Why is Tandoor not working correctly?
|
|
If you just set up your Tandoor instance and you're having issues like...
|
|
|
|
- Links not working
|
|
- CSRF errors
|
|
- CORS errors
|
|
- No recipes are loading
|
|
|
|
... then make sure, that you have set [all required headers](install/docker.md#required-headers) in your reverse proxy correctly.
|
|
If that doesn't fix it, you can also refer to the appropriate sub section in the [reverse proxy documentation](install/docker.md#reverse-proxy) and verify your general webserver configuration.
|
|
|
|
## Why am I getting CSRF Errors?
|
|
If you are getting CSRF Errors this is most likely due to a reverse proxy not passing the correct headers.
|
|
|
|
If you are using swag by linuxserver you might need `proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;` in your nginx config.
|
|
If you are using a plain ngix you might need `proxy_set_header Host $http_host;`.
|
|
|

Further discussions can be found in this [Issue #518](https://github.com/vabene1111/recipes/issues/518)
|
|
|
|
## Why are images not loading?
|
|
If images are not loading this might be related to the same issue as the CSRF errors (see above).
|
|
A discussion about that can be found at [Issue #452](https://github.com/vabene1111/recipes/issues/452)
|
|
|
|
The other common issue is that the recommended nginx container is removed from the deployment stack.
|
|
If removed, the nginx webserver needs to be replaced by something else that servers the /mediafiles/ directory or
|
|
`GUNICORN_MEDIA` needs to be enabled to allow media serving by the application container itself.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Why does the Text/Markdown preview look different than the final recipe?
|
|
|
|
Tandoor has always rendered the recipe instructions markdown on the server. This also allows tandoor to implement things like ingredient templating and scaling in text.
|
|
To make editing easier a markdown editor was added to the frontend with integrated preview as a temporary solution. Since the markdown editor uses a different
|
|
specification than the server the preview is different to the final result. It is planned to improve this in the future.
|
|
|
|
The markdown renderer follows this markdown specification https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/
|
|
|
|
## Why is Tandoor not working on my Raspberry Pi?
|
|
|
|
Please refer to [here](install/docker.md#setup-issues-on-raspberry-pi).
|
|
|
|
## How can I create users?
|
|
To create a new user click on your name (top right corner) and select 'space settings'. There under invites click create.
|
|
|
|
It is not possible to create users through the admin because users must be assigned a default group and space.
|
|
|
|
To change a user's space you need to go to the admin and select User Infos.
|
|
|
|
If you use an external auth provider or proxy authentication make sure to specify a default group and space in the
|
|
environment configuration.
|
|
|
|
## What are spaces?
|
|
Spaces are a feature used to separate one installation of Tandoor into several parts.
|
|
In technical terms it is a multi tenant system.
|
|
|
|
You can compare a space to something like google drive or dropbox.
|
|
There is only one installation of the Dropbox system, but it handles multiple users without them noticing each other.
|
|
For Tandoor that means all people that work together on one recipe collection can be in one space.
|
|
If you want to host the collection of your friends, family, or neighbor you can create a separate space for them (through the admin interface).
|
|
|
|
Sharing between spaces is currently not possible but is planned for future releases.
|
|
|
|
## How can I reset passwords?
|
|
To reset a lost password if access to the container is lost you need to
|
|
|
|
1. execute into the container using `docker-compose exec web_recipes sh`
|
|
2. activate the virtual environment `source venv/bin/activate`
|
|
3. run `python manage.py changepassword <username>` and follow the steps shown.
|
|
|
|
## How can I add an admin user?
|
|
To create a superuser you need to
|
|
|
|
1. execute into the container using `docker-compose exec web_recipes sh`
|
|
2. activate the virtual environment `source venv/bin/activate`
|
|
3. run `python manage.py createsuperuser` and follow the steps shown.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Why cant I get support for my manual setup?
|
|
Even tough I would love to help everyone get tandoor up and running I have only so much time
|
|
that I can spend on this project besides work, family and other life things.
|
|
Due to the countless problems that can occur when manually installing I simply do not have
|
|
the time to help solving each one.
|
|
|
|
You can install Tandoor manually but please do not expect me or anyone to help you with that.
|
|
As a general advice: If you do it manually do NOT change anything at first and slowly work yourself
|
|
to your dream setup. |
