Noob question: where is config.yml? #1149
-
HI!
My apologies for my new car smell, new to Docker & Dashy. I wish to edit the conf.yml file manually and can't find it. All I really want to do is to tweak the landing page and add widgets. May I ask for a copy/paste of what it should look like as well?
Am running Ubuntu server (latest) and installed Docker with the instructions from the Docker site. Where can I find the said file, or more precisely, where is the /public/conf.yml file located? I find my docker stuff partly in "snap" folders if that helps.
I don't know the Linux folder system for what goes where, am a "classic Windows user" :)
Again, apologies for the basicness of the question!
Thanks!!!!

Heya @jphebert
In Docker everything is inside /app - so if you run ls /app you'll see files which look exactly the same as the code section of the repo. So try looking in /app/public/conf.yml :)

Can you provide more info to help you better. Some basic info to get started...
- Is your Dashy docker install successful? i.e. are you able to navigate to dashy home page ?
- What is the docker run command you gave to spin up your container ?

I got it figured it out when I decided to take the easy route and run it on my Synology NAS and use this guide: https://mariushosting.com/synology-how-to-install-dashy-on-your-synology-nas/

I have the Dashy setup in docker and portainer correctly but I dont see the file path apps to be able to make changes to the conf.yml files. I trying to use the example homelab.

Have you added a bind vomu with something similar like -v /some/path/on/the/host:/app/user-data

Where is "/app/user-data" on windows, I think full path will be easier to understand.

Update: my solution(windows 11) was to uses vscode's docker extension, then you can see the container files and go along with the regular instruction. Also found it in docker desktop files tab, right click and it allows you to edit in docker desktop.
