Has anyone considered Ubuntu snap format for deploying Discourse?

Just asking. Does anyone from the dev team know if this would be a good idea?

snap is very interesting, but afaik nobody has experimented with making and maintaining a snap for Discourse.

It would be quite a gigantic effort and I am not sure how much could be reused with Discourse docker. The dev team do not have the resources or inclination to make yet another officially packaged version of Discourse.

it is not that of a big deal actually it can be done at packaging with script let me search for such build plugin.

I’m thinking I might try this, with the host being Ubuntu Core on a Raspberry Pi 4.

Easiest would be to make a snap that uses docker inside it.

Hardest would be reimplementing the docker container as a snap.

Okay, having watched

Snap is not the right solution for discourse, where you may want to run multiple discourse instances on a host.
