What problem will this feature address?

Many users, including myself, want to easily deploy the OJS application using Dokploy. Currently, there is no template available for OJS, making it harder to set up and configure. Having it as a template would streamline the process for researchers, educational institutions, and developers who want to deploy OJS quickly and efficiently.

Describe the solution you'd like

Please add OJS as an application template in Dokploy with pre-configured settings like database, volumes, and environment variables. This would help users deploy OJS without manually configuring each component, reducing setup time and potential errors.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Manually setting up OJS using the pkp/docker-ojs
repository, which provides a Docker Compose setup for OJS. However, this requires extra effort to configure and troubleshoot.

Using other hosting services to deploy OJS, which may involve higher costs or more complex setups.
Adding OJS as a template in Dokploy would offer a simpler and faster deployment process.

Additional context

The official pkp/docker-ojs
repository offers a working Docker Compose setup for OJS, but it is not integrated into Dokploy’s templates. Including it as a template in Dokploy would greatly benefit users by making the deployment seamless, especially for researchers and academic institutions.

Will you send a PR to implement it?

No

Hi there, this seems to be template related. You should open an issue here: https://github.com/Dokploy/templates . Maybe you are able to contribute the template yourself. Instructions are provided in the repo.
