Expose Data Directory

[stavros-k]

I'm trying to install this docker on my Unraid Server but can't figure out how to make pCloud sync files outside of the container. eg. on Share.
I'm running this command. The pcloudCache works as it should, when i go to the /mnt/user/Downloads/pcloudCache i can see the files generating. But when i go to /mnt/user/Downloads/pCloudData i don't see any files.
When i bash in the docker and do ls /home/data i can see the files in there.

sudo docker run -d -it --privileged -v /mnt/user/Downloads/pcloudCache:/root/.pcloud -v /mnt/user/Donwloads/pCloudData:/home/data --name pcloud zcalusic/pcloud pcloudcc -u s.kois@outlook.com -s -m /home/data

One thing i didn't understand yet because i only have small files on pCloud for testing.
Does this docker support offline access? meaning the actual files are stored localy. so without internet i can still access them.

Thanks for your time!

Hello @stavros-k,

FUSE mounts (like what pcloudcc does) inside containers are by default not visible from the host. What you need to do is change bind propagation settings for that mount from default rprivate to, I believe shared. https://docs.docker.com/storage/bind-mounts/#configure-bind-propagation

Hope it helps!

Seems that unraid doesn't like to change the bind propagation settings. Every time i tried to do this, the share automagically was disappearing or getting locked (couldn't add/delete files) and i had to reboot the server to be back to normal. I'll check other alternatives for now. Thanks for your time
