Nextcloud Cookbook is software for viewing, syncing, and organizing recipes. First set up your client devices, so that Nextcloud will automatically keep your recipes synced.
Clients available for:
Android
iOS
Begin by downloading Cookbook from your Nextcloud service’s App Store (Top-right menu -> Apps).
Tip
Use the “Search” function to quickly find the App you are looking for
Once installed/enabled, you will get a new icon in your top menu for “Cookbook.” Click it to get started.
You can now start adding recipes. Simply find a recipe online and copy the URL into the box on the left. In most cases, this will be translated into an easy-to-read recipe with ingredients and steps, and without all the distractions and junk included with most recipe pages.
Tip
Tag and categorize your recipes! Basic settings are available in the bottom-left menu.
There are 2 versions of this app available on Android, and one on iOS. Check this repository for details.
Go to your app store of choice and install the Nextcloud Cookbook app.
(Android connection) You can select a previously connected Nextcloud account, or scan an app-specific QR, created under Nextcloud’s main menu -> Personal Settings -> Security
(iOS connection) You will be prompted to enter the following:
Server URL - get this from your server’s Services -> Nextcloud -> Interfaces (LAN is recommended)
Username - get this from your server’s Services -> Nextcloud -> Properties (admin is default)
Password - get this from your server’s Services -> Nextcloud -> Properties
Note
You may need to enable “self-signed certificates” for LAN. This is safe to do as you are the signer of the cert and owner of all involved hardware.
As soon as you connect and sync, you will see your Cookbook!
