For user-readable files or media I store them under ~/docker/data, and for everything else I store them under ~/docker/stacks/[service] where ~/docker/stacks is maintained by Dockge.
Is there a better way to do this?
You must log in or # to comment.
/srv/[stack name]/volumes/[binds]
I just like so much /srv is the best folder
I have multiple compose stacks with one folder each, and they also contain all the bind volumes and any other extra files needed.
along with the compose.yaml file, unless I need it in a different drive for any reason
This is me.
For example, /srv/docker/synching contains:
compose.yml .env ./Sync
That last one is a directory bound to the container which contains all my sync folders.
Occasionally it makes more sense to put the mounted folder in /srv like /srv/photos is mounted by /srv/docker/photoprism/compose.yml
However, thats a rarity. Things mostly accessed by a single compose stack are kept alongside the other files for that stack.
If you using bind mounts - you are using dockers in wrong way. Use named volumes.
