Important Notes

Credentials

On first run, cloudreve will generate an admin user and print the email and password to the app logs. It will look something like this:

___ _ _
/ __\ | ___ _ _ __| |_ __ _____ _____
/ / | |/ _ \| | | |/ _ | '__/ _ \ \ / / _ \
/ /___| | (_) | |_| | (_| | | | __/\ V / __/

To retrieve the password in TrueNAS SCALE, wait for the app to finish deploying and then navigate to the Workload card and click the View Logs icon.

Aria2

To use cloudreve with aria2, install the TrueCharts aria2 app. The installation dialog will ask for a RPC Secret, which should be a securely generated string that will be copied to cloudreve later. See below for an example.

Once aria2 is installed, open cloudreve’s webpage and navigate to the Dashboard (Click on profile icon in top right corner -> Dashboard). In the dashboard, select Nodes and then click the edit icon beside Master (Local Machine). In the edit dialog, click Enable and then fill out the settings:

  • RPC Server: find with heavyscript dns, and read about internal DNS here.
  • RPC Secret: Set the shared secret here. Must also be set in the Aria2 app.
  • Absolute Path: Set this to a custom persistent mount that you’ve created for this cloudreve app, and have also mounted to Aria2.

Example RPC Secrete Generation

Below is an example of one way to generate the RPC Secret value. If you do not have a computer with openssl installed, you can use the shell (System Settings -> Shell) in TrueNAS SCALE. Copy the resulting value by highlighting it and pressing Ctrl+Insert.

$ openssl rand -hex 32
