Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Tried to use it, but I don’t want to move all of my data from my currently laid out folder/file structure into a docker container that I then need to backup/upgrade/feed/water/etc., especially when my grasp on docker containers is limited (at best) and I’m dealing with “production” data.
I wish the software worked like Immach; I could point it at a root folder and it would index everything with read only rights.
That, and I’m slightly worried that this iteration will stop being supported and it gets forked (again) which is great that it can be forked but I have no idea what would go into migrating data (see my limited docker knowledge from the first sentence).
Well you point the docker to some external data. You do never store the documents inside the docker. (Because it would get lost when it is updated)
It is comparable to the way Immich works.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding this, but their FAQ specifically says:
It also says that documents are removed from the consumption directory, renamed, and put into a folder that you shouldn't modify.
And that's my problem with the project. I want to be able to keep my file name and organizational structure.
It’s a docker volume. In this case it is managed by docker, but it is outside the container.
To have it save everything on your normal filesystem, it should be possible to just edit the docker compose file (I have not tried that)
