Docker: users.json does not update in --detach mode

[ellidi]

Running in docker.
Everything works as it should, but I cannot log in to my created admin account.
The "Login" button under "Accounts" in the settings pane does not do anything at all on 3 different browsers.
Am I missing something?

If you created account and have user/users.json file, you can enter your registered admin name to login input, and then you should see password input, if your name is same and registered user exists. Otherwise you will be entered without password input and admin rights.

Oh, I see the problem, users.json is reset every time I restart the container. config.json persists, though.

After a few /addAdmin -> docker container restart attempts, it finally stuck.

[RblSb]

Are you runned it from cli, as in readme, or some other way?

[ellidi]

docker run -d -it -p 4200:4200 -v /[...]

docker run --rm -it -p 4200:4200 -v /[...] makes the config stick.
The thing is that as soon as the /exit command is entered, the container shuts down.
I just want it to run in the background.
It seems the only way to get users.json to stick, is to do it this way,
then /exit, and then run again with -d

In any case, I appreciate your work on this project; It scratches an itch :)

Thanks for info and words, will try to repro it later and check if there is some other docker flags to keep state on exit with detached mode. Maybe i write users file only on exit from memory, and exit signal is not sended in this corner case, hm.
I mostly use this project as screen -S synctube node build/server.js, so docker setup is not much tested, and was added by users initiative, but i want to keep it in good state, since containers is useful too.

I tested it like this:

docker run -d --rm -it -p 4200:4200 -v ${PWD}/user:/usr/src/app/user synctube
docker attach active_container_id_here

And /exit after /addAdmin shows Saving state... in output and saves things correctly, is this same for you?
Or, if you got state.json/users.json removed on next container start, then it looks like problem with attached --volume folder.
