Need to get the upload folder ONLY on a bind mount
I need the actual full sized photos on a bind mount - not sub folders or empty folder. Custom folders dont really do the job completely. I.E.
/mnt/photos. <--- bind mount into container
|_ uploads. <--- storage template should put the organized files here - no library/user subfolder but at the root & no empty folders
./opt/appadata/immich/. <--- in container
|_ backups
|_ encoded_videos
|_ profile
|_ thumbs
|_ database
Is there anyway to do this?3 Replies

Successfully submitted, a tag has been added to inform contributors. :white_check_mark:No. There isn’t a way to have it not split by users
If you only have one user you could bind mount that users subfolder
Here is the env file
UPLOAD_LOCATION=/mnt/da02/data-02/photos/incoming
THUMBS_LOCATION=/opt/appdata/immich/thumbs/
PROFILE_LOCATION=/opt/appdata/immich/profile/
ENCODED_VIDEO_LOCATION=/opt/appdata/immich/encoded-videos/
BACKUP_LOCATION=/opt/appdata/immich/backups/
EXT_MEDIA_LOCATION=/mnt/da02/data-02/photos/
DB_DATA_LOCATION=/opt/appdata/immich/postgres/
but the extra empty folders in /mnt/da02/data-02/photos/incoming are really messing up the downstream automations
ok solved kind of:
- ${LIBRARY_LOCATION}:/usr/src/app/upload/library
- ${THUMBS_LOCATION}:/usr/src/app/upload/thumbs
- ${UPLOAD_LOCATION}:/usr/src/app/upload
- ${PROFILE_LOCATION}:/usr/src/app/upload/profile
- ${ENCODED_VIDEO_LOCATION}:/usr/src/app/upload/encoded-video
- ${BACKUP_LOCATION}:/usr/src/app/upload/backups
env:
LIBRARY_LOCATION=/mnt/da02/data-02/photos/incoming
UPLOAD_LOCATION=/opt/appdata/immich/upload/
THUMBS_LOCATION=/opt/appdata/immich/thumbs/
PROFILE_LOCATION=/opt/appdata/immich/profile/
ENCODED_VIDEO_LOCATION=/opt/appdata/immich/encoded-videos/
BACKUP_LOCATION=/opt/appdata/immich/backups/
DB_DATA_LOCATION=/opt/appdata/immich/postgres/
changing upload to the container and changing the library location to the bind mount
