Operating system

Linux

Joplin version

2.13.8

What issue do you have?

When I open Tools -> Options in Joplin Desktop for Linux, I notice that Joplin wants to connect to some servers:

raw.githubuercontent.com
raw.fastgit.org
cdn.jsdelivr.net
us4.ghproxy.com
cdn.staticaly.com

Can someone explain what are they for?

These look like the domains Joplin uses to fetch plugin updates and the list of plugins.

Internally, Joplin maintains a list of GitHub mirrors that are used if Joplin is unable to fetch plugin data with raw.githubusercontent.com. Plugins are stored in the joplin/plugins repository.

This is the relevant code:

github.com

laurent22/joplin/blob/2c0f8d5c6be150475a3534ba5c5df3413fec825e/packages/lib/services/plugins/RepositoryApi.ts#L19


      
          interface ReleaseAsset {
          	name: string;
          	browser_download_url: string;
          }
          
          interface Release {
          	upload_url: string;
          	assets: ReleaseAsset[];
          }
          
          const findWorkingGitHubUrl = async (defaultContentUrl: string): Promise<string> => {
          	// From: https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues/5161#issuecomment-921642721
          
          	const mirrorUrls = [
          		defaultContentUrl,
          		'https://cdn.staticaly.com/gh/joplin/plugins/master',
          		'https://ghproxy.com/https://raw.githubusercontent.com/joplin/plugins/master',
          		'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/joplin/plugins@master',
          		'https://raw.fastgit.org/joplin/plugins/master',
          	];

All URLs should be listed here:

@personalizedrefriger and @JackGruber

Thanks for two pieces of information!
I trust open source code!
