Accessing my audiobooks on a usb-drive

[rakelbara]

Hi
I managed to install ABS on my old laptop (running on Debian 12 Bookworm), but I can't figure out how to connect ABS to the USB drive where my audiobooks are stored (the hdd on the laptop is too small). Can someone spell out for me how I can get that to work?
Thanks in advance!

You'll need to make sure that the user ABS is running as can access the mount point of the USB, depending on if you are running from the Debian or Docker. Then you would just create the library at that path.

Hi nichwall and thank you for your answer.

I have added this to my docker-compose.yml but I'm still getting an error:

volumes:
- /media/rakelbara/8C1E5DE11E5DC53C/audiobooks:/audiobooks
- /media/rakelbara/8C1E5DE11E5DC53C/audiobooks:/podcasts
- /media/rakelbara/8C1E5DE11E5DC53C/audiobooks :/config
- /media/rakelbara/8C1E5DE11E5DC53C/audiobooks :/metadata

Each of the mount points should be a different folder in your external file system, such as

  volumes:
    - /media/rakelbara/8C1E5DE11E5DC53C/audiobooks:/audiobooks
    - /media/rakelbara/8C1E5DE11E5DC53C/podcasts:/podcasts
    - /media/rakelbara/8C1E5DE11E5DC53C/config:/config
    - /media/rakelbara/8C1E5DE11E5DC53C/metadata:/metadata
