highlight add-ons for Cockpit

[garrett]

I don't think the website talks about https://github.com/Scribery/cockpit-session-recording, for example. We probably want to highlight Cockpit Podman a bit more as well.

Additionally, if we had instructions on how to add these in the various distros (such as adding cockpit-session-recording on Fedora), that would be fantastic.

1st party add-ons

Add-ons built from the Cockpit source:

• cockpit-selinux
• cockpit-storaged
• cockpit-bridge
• cockpit-kdump
• cockpit-networkmanager
• cockpit-packagekit
• cockpit-pcp
• cockpit-selinux
• cockpit-sosreport

Add-ons externally maintained by the Cockpit & Front Door teams:

• cockpit-machines
• cockpit-docker (now deprecated)
• cockpit-podman
• cockpit-ostree
• cockpit-composer
• cockpit-certificates

2rd-party add-ons

Add-ons from other teams in Red Hat:

• cockpit-389-ds
• cockpit-session-recording
• cockpit-ovirt-dashboard

Add-ons that are RHEL specific:

• cockpit-subscriptions
• cockpit-leapp (in-place upgrade tool)

Here is a plugin for ZFS management
https://github.com/optimans/cockpit-zfs-manager

[Protektor-Desura]

Anyone aware of a cockpit plugin for:

MergerFS https://github.com/trapexit/mergerfs
SnapRAID https://github.com/amadvance/snapraid/
https://www.snapraid.it/

[garrett]

On the page, for every add-on, it should show:

• Title
• Homepage
• Link to issues
• Distros where it's included by default (as a package)
• Installation method? (applications page vs. package)
• Summary
• Version?
• In development vs. production?
• Official vs. third party

Then there should be groups:

1. Official Cockpit-maintained add-ons first
2. Third-party production-ready ones
3. In-development, not ready for use yet (preview add-ons)

@Protektor-Desura: I do see a project for cockpit-zfs-manager, but I don't see where there might be anything for Cockpit for MergerFS or SnapRAID.

The MergerFS wiki page @ https://github.com/trapexit/mergerfs/wiki/Tutorials,-Articles,-Videos,-Podcasts has a link to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLyTWdzDiCg, which is a video from 2017 (so a lot of stuff has changed).

Meanwhile, I'm going through everything on this page and adding it as a structured data set in YAML for the website. I intend on generating a page for the website from this data. I intend on posting a PR soon.

The MergerFS wiki page @ https://github.com/trapexit/mergerfs/wiki/Tutorials,-Articles,-Videos,-Podcasts has a link to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLyTWdzDiCg, which is a video from 2017 (so a lot of stuff has changed).

I watched the video and saw him talking about Cockpit but I didn't see anything mentioned about MergerFS or SnapRAID let alone a plugin for them for Cockpit. The video was basically an overview of cockpit for that version at the time.
