Setting this up with a docker EtherPad

Hello, I am trying to set this up with a docker image I have of etherpad on Caprover. Nothing I have tried so far is working (I get alot of ERCONRESET Errors) and I wondered if you had any hints? For example, is the server host the Etherpad image or MySQL database connected to it?

Thanks for any help

Instructions for setting up the server?

I'm so excited about this plugin, but I can't get it to work!

Below are the instructions for how "easy" it is to set up a server, but the link only explains how to install it locally. I've followed them, and everything is working locally, but I can't see how to generate a link that I can share with anyone (only a link that starts with http://localhost:9001/…).

Here's my use-case:

I'm developing an Obsidian vault that I'd like to have various people contribute to and collaborative edit. I'd like to share a link with collaborators that they can open in a browser, and edit with real-time changes showing. Then, once the editing is finished, I can replace the version in my vault with the edited version. But how do I install this plugin so that I can generate a link that people without Etherpad installed can use to access and edit in a browser?

Or am I missing something really basic? Am I supposed to do something "in AWS with a free-tier EC2 machine, or even in Heroku"? I'd welcome any pointers to where I can find that info!

Set up an Etherpad-Lite server

"Wait... I have to set up my own server?"
Easier than it sounds. It can be done in AWS with a free-tier EC2 machine, or even in Heroku. It takes about 2 minutes, but it's out of the scope of this document. You can literally leave all the defaults as-is for a functional (but insecure) system. Follow the Etherpad-Lite instructions.
I know. This part feels like a bait-and-switch.

Editing in obsidian

It would be really nice to edit text live in obsidian. Just being able to see the text and LaTeX expressions formatted would make this already helpful plugin a lot more straightforward.

Error: Cannot parse API response

Hi,

I set up my own Etherpad instance that is working so far, but I cannot connect to it from the Plugin. When I select "Convert current note to Etherpad", I get: Error creating pad XYZ: Cannot parse the API response.

I tried looking into the console and network logs of the developer tools but did not find more info right away. Do you have an idea how I could try to debug it?

Thank you very much for all your voluntary effort! ❤️
