I unfortunately lost my flash drive a few months ago, which wasn't backed up (had been going 12 years!) so lost most of my settings. I wasn't looking forward to setting up all my dockers again, but when I pointed docker to the existing .img file (not on the flash drive, but a separate SSD) I was surprised to see that all my containers worked, just as they had before. I can restart, stop, reboot the system etc and they'll all come back online.

 

However it seems I've lost the files behind these that tell unraid the configuration that was used, so I can't edit the dockers or update them. Is there a way to somehow extract the settings/mappings that were used in creating the docker from the .img file so I can delete and re-create the containers from scratch in the UI? Got lots of containers with lots of settings that I can't remember off the top of my head!

 

Thanks!

Extracted the docker settings from the .img using docker inspect, and saving to a file. Can then read the file with a text editor to parse all the settings that were used in the original config.
