Docker: Loosing uploads after each deploy

[drupol]

Hello,

Everytime I deploy a new update of the app, the uploaded presentation stored in upload gets lost.
How can I prevent that ? I guess I have to add a volume in Docker, but what is the directory in the application to use then?

Thanks.

Looks like adding:

volumes:
  - uploads:/app/priv/static/uploads

Is fixing the issue.

(maybe this should be documented by the way)

@drupol how did you get docker to work? I can't seem to get it working.

I'm using Nix for this, and this is what I had to do to setup Claper on my server, nothing else:

{ config, pkgs, ... }:

{
  config.virtualisation.oci-containers.containers = {
    claper = {
      image = "ghcr.io/claperco/claper:main";
      ports = [
        "4000:4000"
      ];
      environment = {
        DATABASE_URL = "postgres://claper:claper@LOCAL-IP:5432/claper";
        SECRET_KEY_BASE = "SECRET-KEY-BASE";
        ENDPOINT_HOST = "claper.my-public-hostname.com";
      };
      dependsOn = [ "db" ];
      volumes = [
        "uploads:/app/priv/static/uploads"
      ];
    };
    db = {
      image = "postgres:9";
      ports = [
        "5432:5432"
      ];
      environment = {
        POSTGRES_PASSWORD = "password";
        POSTGRES_USER = "password";
        POSTGRES_DB = "password";
      };
    };
  };
}
