Ok who is ready for the next challenge I have?!

 

I will admit this is likely easy for many of you... but I am not like you! lol

 

I have attached the mapping of my docker to the data path.  This is where stuff for my foundry world resides.  When I go to look at files in the Foundry server it points to things in this area.  This is on my Cache drive.  I want to map to assets on my Array though.  The folder I want to be able to access when choosing files is /Home Network/DnD Assets.

 

I have tried to add a path but I have screwed it up so much I have actually lost data.... How can I map this area to my fouindry game (if possible) so I can access this content as well (tokens, images, and other stuff I don't want stored on cache drive).  It's ok if it pulls it in there when I grab from this folder I just dont want it ALL in there from the start.

 

This will elminate me having to "Choose File" and do extra steps.  I hope I can do this.  Anyone who can help TYIA

I’m guessing this is a container path? What is the path in Unraid to the share you want to link it to?

I want to be able to access it in the context menus of Foundry.  The path in unraid for my docker is /mnt/user/appdata/felddy.  I can access anything in there in context menus in the foudnry file system rather than having to Choose File every time which opens a windows window.  The area where assets I want to use is in my home network array non cache drive.  /mnt/user/home network/DnD assets..... Am I saying this right/  THe file system really messes me up here.  Thank yoU!

 

I wouldn’t think you would want to mess with the appdata files. These are typically a bunch of text files that contain the settings for the app running in the container. To map /data to DnD assets you would click the name of the container in the Docker tab in Unraid and select Edit next to the /data path. Just enter /mnt/user/home network/DnD assets into the container path field. Capitalization matters here. I notice that earlier you posted /Home Network. Not sure which you are using but they aren’t the same. You may also need to escape the spaces in your file names. I’m not sure about that since I always avoid spaces. Once you have this set correctly the app should be able to access any files in /DnD assets by navigating to /data in the app.
