Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/issues/986

Umbrel is a new OS for homelab self-hosting of Dockerized apps. It looks like a perfect fit for ArchiveBox and it's not difficult for us to add the yaml/config necessary to submit it to their App Store.

Instructions: https://github.com/getumbrel/umbrel-apps/blob/master/README.md

TODOs:

Create umbrel-apps/archivebox/docker-compose.yml based on archivebox/docker-compose.yml
Create umbrel-apps/archivebox/umbrel-app.yml The app manifest file telling Umbrel how to configure/deploy ArchiveBox
Create umbrel-apps/archivebox/exports.sh The shell script to export environment variables used within the Umbrel docker-compose.yml
Test packaged ArchiveBox with Umbrel test server
Set up Github Actions CI pipeline to update it on new ArchiveBox releases (optional for MVP, fine to do this later)
Submit PR to umbrel-apps repo
Add link to Umbrel app deployment under ArchiveBox/README.md > Install instructions section

Example of what a packaged app looks like in their App Store:

Contributors wanted!

Note: we should also link to the YunoHost (similar to Umbrel) in the README: https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/archivebox_ynh
