Hello, once again. We'd love to sponsor adding comments to CodiMD. Is there anyone we could negotiate this with?

It's more like I need help from you, though. :-)
We (Czech Pirate Party) are starting to use CodiMD quite heavily for various purposes. It's slowly becoming the go-to alternative to GDocs for many of our users. What's keeping the adoption back is comments. We don't really need edit proposals, but the ability to highlight a portion of the rendered text and attach a note that can be commented on and dismissed would help us a lot. I does not have to end up in the Markdown source, it can live outside, if easier.

It might also be acceptable for us to purchase on-premise HackMD if you offered eventual open-source license like Sentry does (https://blog.sentry.io/2019/11/06/relicensing-sentry).

Hi! I asked the question on Twitter but just discovered this Gitter: Is there a way to link to a header tag so that the browser scrolls to the tag? The section links on the preview page are great but cause a page refresh.

I also have a small improvement proposal. When using the format bar, I often overshoot with my mouse, then this drops down and now the button hit area for the formatting tool I intended to use is completely obscured by this (albeit great) dropbown menu. The problem is that if you overshoot, then correct and move your mouse down to directly over the original button, you will still be clicking an unexpected button that opens a whole new page. So if you overshoot, you have to mouse out of this box you were not anticipating being there. It's a small thing but I do it by accident multiple times a day. Perhaps the dropdown could be relocated horizontally or the buttons could require a click to see their submenu contents.

Is it possible to use phantomjs instead of phantomjs-prebuilt?

I tried building phantomjs (because I am on arm), but it still tries to get phantomjs-prebuilt, which does not work.

Do you know how to remove phantomjs-prebuilt from the npm requirements?

Also, is "Found 294 vulnerabilities (255 low, 17 moderate, 22 high)" a normal output?

Hi. I was planning to use HackMD/CodiMD in classroom setting where students add content. For grading purposes, it would be nice to see who contributed how much. In "Versions" screen, the revisions can be seen and compared. But I was wondering if it's possible to see contributions per user/contributor?

Hello is there any way to import user data without loosing history?

We are planning to move from LDAP to AZURE for authentication which will cause change in user information, I want to know how can I do this migration without loosing data and ownership?

@jackycute

Hello is there any way to import user data without loosing history?

I think the only way is migrate the DB, no other way to keep all authorship and history from files at the moment.

Aakash Nand

@aakashnand_gitlab

@jackycute but if we change from LDAP to AzureAD it will change user profiles then users will lose the ownership and history, how can we solve this?

@jackycute but if we change from LDAP to AzureAD it will change user profiles then users will lose the ownership and history, how can we solve this?

Maybe let them join through AzureAD and map those user account's profileid back to original user id and remove those accounts.

Let users register through AzureAD
Find those newly created user accounts' profileid
Map those profileid back to former user accounts
Remove user accounts that created through AzureAD

Aakash Nand

@aakashnand_gitlab

Understood thanks. Does the generic Oauth authentication works with AzureAD? I am able to login but I am getting Internal server error saying "InternalOAuthError: Failed to fetch user profile"

What would be the value for CMD_OAUTH2_USER_PROFILE_URL and CMD_OAUTH2_SCOPE for AzureAD?

Aakash Nand

@aakashnand_gitlab

Map those profileid back to former user accounts

@jackycute Could you please clarify this step? By mapping what do you mean? Should I replace profileid in Users table with the new profileid and then delete the account created by AzureAD but this will give error cause there is unique_constraint on profileid in Users table

Yes, please backup the db first.
Copy the new user account's profileid and clean the field, then paste to new account's profileid, this should avoid unique constraint.

Also, why do you say

Edit the following config file to setup CodiMD server and client.
Read more info at https://hackmd.io/c/codimd-documentation/%2Fs%2Fcodimd-configuration

config.json -- CodiMD config
.sequelizerc -- db config

When in the script the config is loaded from

var config = require('./lib/config')

.sequelizerc -- db config

. sequelizerc is used by sequelize (our ORM tool) when running db migrations and seeders

Hi, is it possible to deploy it on an arm machine?

Yes, please take a look at dockerhub: https://hub.docker.com/r/hackmdio/hackmd/tags?page=1&ordering=last_updated

On the page, not a single arm in signt

When I deploy it it gives "standard_init_linux.go:219: exec user process caused: exec format error"

And when I deploy it manually I get other errors, such as an error installing phantom-prebuilt

I mean phantomjs-prebuilt@2.1.16

Max Wu

@jackycute

I think it only works on linux/arm64, are you running on arm only?
If so, I'm afraid it won't work on arm at the moment.

Any developer here? We didn't backup our md in time, and I don't want to lose our team members' work :(
