Multiple directories

[dreg35]

Is there a way to add multiple directories?

[ramiresviana]

The application root and user scope are limited to a single path. Additional items can be added as subdirectories.

@dreg35 Found it, I think, it's late ...

Additional folders can simply be specified as subfolders of /srv.

So main folder /srv/filebrowser/srv:/srv
-> any harddisk /dev/sdb1:/srv/b1
-> any folder /dev/sbc1/documents:/srv/documents

"b1" and "documents" then simply appear as folders in the main view of filebrowser.

Hello, could you explain to me how you did to show you subfolders. Or show me the process you did.
Thanks for your help

@paquin28 Hi, i will try^^

The directory bound to "/srv" is the root directory which is visible when logging into filebot. All other folders which are bound under "/srv/*" are then the subfolders.

As an example: My main folder is on the system SSD and has the path "/appdata/filebrowser/srv".
The audiobooks are on a HDD and have the path "/srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-1388811c-d5dd-4170-896b-940cab2fa93c/nasp1/audiobooks".

So my config looks like:

volumes:
      - /appdata/filebrowser/database.db:/database.db
      - /appdata/filebrowser/filebrowser.json:/filebrowser.json
      - /appdata/filebrowser/srv:/srv
      - /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-1388811c-d5dd-4170-896b-940cab2fa93c/nasp1/audiobooks:/srv/audiobooks

The important point is that the container path of "audiobooks" is under "/srv/*", so "/srv/audiobooks".

Every user who logs in now, sees "audiobooks" as a folder and can use it.

And here my portainer settings:

Hello friend @Browalew , thank you very much for your explanation.
I have a question, and I think the difference is that I have filebrowser installed as a plugin in openmediavault, so I don't see the configuration you mention. And the configuration file that it contains, do you know where it is located in openmediavault?
Again thank you very much for your time

@paquin28 Sorry, but I have no experience with omv plugins.

I also have OMV running. Mainly it manages the HDDs. And via the OMV-extras Docker and Portainer was installed. Portainer then manages all my Docker applications. The idea is that these are then more independent of OMV and the hardware.

Love this application
It would be great if you could give each user their home folder (only they can access it) and some shared root.
Hope Devs can consider this. Filebrowser is great and very much appreciated.

Hi Team, It would be great to be able to list multiple paths in the scope. In our use case customers access their PBX call recordings which are all in a single directory under a tenant identifying folder. Some users may need access to multiple tenants in the use case of a dealership.

Are there any ways to get this working in the latest release?

example structure;

/recordings/tenant1
/recordings/tenant2

User would need access to the above but not the other tenant folders.
