New Remote Access Way

[thegreatestgiant]

Intro

I'd like to share the way I set up my instance

1. I use Cloudflare tunnels - set up a tunnel using docker and make sure to add a -d and remove any --rm
2. I use rclone which I noticed is hidden all the way in the back, regardless I have a different way of using it

Rclone

You have to have Rclone installed and then you have to install the docker plugin for rclone
Basically

sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/docker-plugins/rclone/config
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/docker-plugins/rclone/cache

and then - make sure to have the version correct

docker plugin install rclone/docker-volume-rclone:amd64 args="-v" --alias rclone --grant-all-permissions

Then you have to send your rclone configuration (can create with sudo rclone config and should be under /root/.config/rclone/) to /var/lib/docker-plugins/rclone/config/rclone.conf

Compose File

Here's my compose file, obviously you have to make changes with regards to what you name your remote and where it all is on your file system, I also only use books

services:
    kavita:
        image: jvmilazz0/kavita:latest
        container_name: kavita
        volumes:
            - books:/books
            - data:/kavita/config
        environment:
            - TZ=America/New_York
        ports:
            - 5000:5000
        restart: unless-stopped

volumes:
  books:
    driver: rclone
    driver_opts:
      remote: 'kavita:books'
      allow_other: 'true'
      vfs_cache_mode: full
  
  data:
    driver: rclone
    driver_opts:
      remote: 'kavita:data'
      allow_other: 'true'
      vfs_cache_mode: full
