## Features

In addition to Roundcube core features, the following are made available with
this package:

 * Integrate with YunoHost users and SSO - i.e. logout button, YunoHost users
   search
 * Synchronize your email aliases as identities in Roundcube
 * Install the [contextmenu](https://plugins.roundcube.net/packages/johndoh/contextmenu)
   and [automatic addressbook](https://plugins.roundcube.net/packages/sblaisot/automatic_addressbook)
   plugins by default
 * Allow to install the [CardDAV](https://plugins.roundcube.net/packages/roundcube/carddav)
   (address book) synchronization plugin at the installation - note that if
   you have installed ownCloud or Baïkal, it will automatically add the
   corresponding and existing address book.

## Extend and tweak

### Configuration

You can extend - or even override - the Roundcube configuration which is coming
with this package in the file `conf/local.inc.php`. Do not edit the file
`conf/config.inc.php` as future upgrades will overwrite it.

### Plugins

You can also install other plugins - which will not be removed with upgrades. To do so,
you can use the official [Plugin Repository](https://plugins.roundcube.net/).

#### From the Plugin Repository

Let's say for example that we want to install the
[html5_notifier](https://plugins.roundcube.net/packages/kitist/html5_notifier) plugin.

1. Connect to your server as root using SSH:
   ```
   $ ssh admin@1.2.3.4
   $ sudo -i
   ```

2. Log in as the `roundcube` user - which owns the roundcube directory - and navigate
   in it:
   ```
   # su -s /bin/bash - roundcube
   $ cd /var/www/roundcube
   ```

3. Install the plugin you want using composer - note that you have to specify
   *kitist/html5_notifier* and not only *html5_notifier*:
   ```
   $ COMPOSER_HOME=./.composer php composer.phar require "kitist/html5_notifier"
   ```

4. Enable it in the local configuration file `conf/local.inc.php` using your
   favorite text editor by adding:
   ```
   <?php
   $config['plugins'][] = 'html5_notifier';
   ```

Note that you should also check the plugin homepage for additional installation
steps as needed.

#### Manual installation

You can also download the plugin and put it under the `plugins/` directory. In this
case, do not forget to change ownerships of this folder to `roundcube`.
