Why do you think should it be a bind mount instead of a volume?

--

I'm not sure I want to advocate people use their home directory over the named volume.

Given

homebox/Dockerfile

Line 47 in 673db41

VOLUME [ "/data" ]

the data should be persistent anyways

🤷

you should mount the volume in a defined location for easy backups and access. home directory makes sense as there are the... user directories, configs and data. all backup solutions include the home directory by default.

if you really don't want to use the home directory as example, you can use -v /path/to/data/folder:/data \ in the docker run, like linuxserver guys do it.

ghcr.io/hay-kot/homebox:latest
```
