[Question] Docker/Docker-Compose - How to "create system" and load /data directly at first start of docker image

[milkmandoor]

The docker-compose file suggest putting the data we want our library to be in /data inside the docker container. I would have thought this was designed so that the directory would be automatically added to the library and scanned but this isn't the case.

Is there a way to make stash directly:

• Add /data as a Directory to be scanned
• "create the system" as displayed on the landing page
• Do a full Scan of the library (and thus of the /data directory)

so that we can fully automate the initialization of a ready-to-use stash instance without any manual action ?

I don't see any option in the CLI relevant to this.

You can bypass install wizard by manually setting up config.yml configuration file.

There is an API you can use to trigger a scan automatically. So you could write entry script to run as part of container start.
