Native Applications

Native applications are software installed directly on the system, offering better performance and lower resource usage compared to containerized deployment.

Application List

Go to the Applications page and switch to the Native App tab to view the native application list. You can filter different types of applications through the category tags at the top, or use the search box on the right to search by name or description.

Native Application List

The list displays the following information:

  • App Name: Software name
  • Description: Brief description of the software
  • Installed Version: Currently installed version number (empty if not installed)
  • Show in Home: Whether to display in the Quick Apps area on the panel homepage
  • Actions: Install, update, manage, or uninstall

Install Application

Click the Install button on the right side of the application, and an installation dialog will pop up:

Installation Dialog

Select Channel

Some applications provide multiple version channels. Click the dropdown to select the desired version series:

Select Channel

Select Version

After selecting a channel, the system will automatically fill in the latest version number for that channel:

Select Version

If the selected channel provides release notes, a Release Log section will appear below the version field, showing the changelog for that channel. The version field itself is read-only and always reflects the latest available version of the chosen channel.

Click the Install button to start installation. During installation, you can view detailed logs on the Tasks page.

Manage Application

Installed applications will display a Manage button. Click to enter the application management page.

Running Status

The management page first displays the application's running status:

Application Management

The following operations are provided:

  • Start: Start a stopped service
  • Stop: Stop a running service
  • Restart: Restart the service (will interrupt connections)
  • Reload: Reload configuration (without interrupting connections, recommended; only available for applications that support it)

The Autostart switch in the top-right corner controls whether the service starts automatically on system boot.

Modify Configuration

Click the Modify Configuration tab to directly edit the application's configuration file:

Modify Configuration

Note

Please ensure you understand the meaning of each parameter before modifying configuration files. Incorrect configuration may prevent the service from starting.

View Logs

Click the Run Log or Error Log tab to view application logs, which is helpful for troubleshooting.

Update Application

When a new version is available, an Update button appears next to the application in the list. Clicking it shows a confirmation dialog with the target version number. Note that updating may reset related configurations to their default state. After confirming, the update runs in the background and its progress can be tracked on the Tasks page.

Uninstall Application

Click the Uninstall button to uninstall the application. A confirmation dialog with a 5-second countdown will appear. Before uninstalling, please ensure:

  1. No websites or projects depend on this application
  2. Important configuration files and data have been backed up

Warning

Uninstalling database applications (such as MySQL, PostgreSQL) will delete all database data. Please make sure to backup in advance!

Warning

Uninstalling a web server application (such as Nginx/OpenResty) will reset the configuration of all websites. The confirmation dialog will display a dedicated warning for this case. The same reset also applies when reinstalling or switching to a different web server.

Homepage Shortcut

After enabling the Show in Home switch, the application will appear in the Quick Apps area on the panel homepage for quick access to the management page.
