This plugin lets you track if Nextcloud is End-of-Life (EOL). To compare against the current/installed version of Nextcloud, the check has to run on the nextcloud server itself and needs access to the Nextcloud installation directory.
This check plugin alerts n days before or after the EOL date is reached. Optionally, it can also alert on available major, minor or patch releases (each independently).
