Show HN: Add-ons that work anywhere
- gkoberger 12y agoVery awesome. I love Heroku's add-on market, however don't use Heroku anymore (in favor of Docker+AWS). This is the last missing piece for me.
- webmaven 12y agoVery nice! I wonder if Python support is in the works...
- ubi 12y agoYep! And iOS...
- ubi 12y agoWe are launching more addons soon! please stay tuned =D
- ubi 12y agoAlso if you are an addon service company and want to join in ping me at chris @ addonlist . com
- michaelmior 12y agoI'm surprised the ToS of these services permit automated account registration.
- gkoberger 12y agoThey all have implemented SSO and (given how SSO works) have clearly worked with this site to make it happen.
- ubi 12y agoWe are fully integrated with the services, accounts are setup via an API.
- michaelmior 12y agoAwesome! I wasn't meaning to imply any wrongdoing. It's nice that such an API exists although I shouldn't be surprised given the add-on market in Heroku.
- ubi 12y agoThanks, np. Feel free to ping me with any questions. chris @ addonlist . com
- ubi 12y agoJust added Rollbar integration: https://addonlist.com/products/rollbar https://addonlist.com/products/rollbar More to come, what services would you like next?
- calcsam 12y agoSaaS as a service.
- ubi 12y agoI heard you liked services so...
- lobster_johnson 12y agoThis is cool, although what I really wish for is a standardized configuration API that can be programmatically used to maintain this sort of thing. We develop apps that depend on a handful of services like these. Each service has its own page for specifying API credentials and for various configuration options which must be entered manually through a GUI; it can't be declared through Puppet/Chef/etc. Another pain point is that every service needs its own login, very few of them support 2FA, very few of them support team-oriented accounts (ie., where login is separate from the account, and access is delegated to the account; Mailgun and Digital Ocean, for example, lacks this, whereas Scout, Rollbar etc. don't), each has a completely proprietary health status page, etc. I am hoping someone someday will invent a centralized app (preferably based on an open protocol so there can be multiple providers) for this kind of organizational access. Sort like OpenID, except it needs role-based permission levels.
- ubi 12y agoFirst, thank you for checking it out! Our tech can put the API keys into your app's env so you likely wont need the GUI you are talking about. Our App dashboard has SSO login into all the addons. So you dont need to worry about account creds, just click a button and you are logged in. I think our product is a solution to your problem(s), happy to answer any more questions or give more details.
- lobster_johnson 12y agoThat does sound awesome. Thanks for doing this.
- ubi 12y agoI sent you an email, I'd love to hear more about your exact usecase. my email is chris @ addonlist .com
- workingBen 12y agoWe're releasing team management with rights and roles alongside a host of other features this month. This is great feedback and, ultimately, a lot of what we hope to solve. We are as into creating dev tools as much as building out marketplace features. Let's chat! ben @ addonlist . com
