I don't know if I'm stupid or if NextCloud's instructions are stupid, it's probably me and subsequently I'm struggling.

For all of my Docker stuff, I move the config directory to my opt folder with a simple

    volumes:
     - /opt/APPNAME/config:/config

And generally have the data on a remote drive like

    - music:/music

volumes: 
  music: 
    driver_opts:
      type: "nfs"
      o: "addr=192.168.X.XXX,nolock,soft,rw"
      device: ":/mnt/HD/Public/Shared Music"

This works perfectly for everything and I'm generally pleased with how things run. But NextCloud is throwing a bunch of words at me and I don't get it. Why can't it be as simple as what I'm already doing? Why do I have to declare

    environment
      - NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR=
      - NEXTCLOUD_MOUNT=

And why is it pointing me to? https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one?tab=readme-ov-file#how-to-store-the-filesinstallation-on-a-separate-drive

Which just points you to https://www.guguweb.com/2019/02/07/how-to-move-docker-data-directory-to-another-location-on-ubuntu/

I'm looking at this Docker Compose like...

NextCloudPi was so simple to set up. If not for being stuck on v25, I'd have been happy with it. 🥺

It points to an x86 image

From the crates!

I'm lucky enough to have two cats. The first I had since she left her mother, the second a couple months since she left her mother.

The first, named Mohkno started out as a hero. She used to eat half her food and leave the rest for the second cat, Shadoe.

However, feeling that Shadoe had gained enough weight and settled down, she began getting designs on Shadoe's breakfast.

Shadoe is kinda useless, because she hears any sound and she runs away and so Mohkno has a free run at her food.

Yesterday I thought I'd finally fix it, because short of watching them eat, there has to be a better way

action:
  - service: notify.notify
    metadata: {}
    data:
      message: "Mohkno is trying to steal food again! "
mode: single

Needless to say, I caught Mohkno trying to sneak back downstairs four times to pilfer Shadoe's breakfast. The funny thing is, every time I would get the notification, I would catch her sneaking downstairs while staring at the kitchen door, so she knows she's misbehaving.

Anyway, it's stupid, but thought I'd share.

I have a NAS which I use for storage and I have a Pi which I use for serving applications.

I thought I could just throw Calibre Web on the Pi, point it to my NAS and then be good to go. Charlie_Murphy_Wrong.gif

So Calibre Web said it needed a Calibre database, cool. I installed Calibre proper and created the database. But its not aware of my chosen book location.

I feel like I'm going all about the houses and introducing a level of complexity beyond what is required? Before I knuckle down and persist with this, I thought I'd ask and make sure I'm going in the right direction for what I'm trying to achieve?
