Thumbnail storage

[darrepac]

Hello

Where are the thumbnails stored? I do not see any volume dedicated for that in the docker-compose file... (neither for the database)

thanks

Thumbnails are stored in the media cache located at PHOTOVIEW_MEDIA_CACHE=/app/cache and persisted in the api_cache docker volume.

photoview/docker-compose.example.yml

Lines 28 to 36 in 8cf4e8d

	- PHOTOVIEW_MEDIA_CACHE=/app/cache
	# Optional: To enable map related features, you need to create a mapbox token.
	# A token can be generated for free here https://account.mapbox.com/access-tokens/
	# It's a good idea to limit the scope of the token to your own domain, to prevent others from using it.
	# - MAPBOX_TOKEN=<YOUR TOKEN HERE>
	volumes:
	- api_cache:/app/cache

ok so we cannot define where we want them to be stored? or I am missing something?

Yes you can, just change the api_cache volume to a bind mount. See https://docs.docker.com/storage/bind-mounts/
