# Dockstarter

Note

I'm using the default paths in this example, and will keep the other paths unchanged so nothing will break if you make a mistake.

## Folder Structure

We're going to use a mounted drive that we're going to use as storage for downloads and your media. In this example the mounted drive will be mounted to `/mnt/` with the following folder structure.

    storage
    ├── downloads
    │  ├── torrents
    │  │  ├── movies
    │  │  ├── music
    │  │  └── tv
    │  └── usenet
    │     ├── movies
    │     ├── music
    │     └── tv
    └── medialibrary
        ├── movies
        ├── music
        └── tv

## Changes to the .env

To accomplish this we need to change first a few paths in your `.env` (Usually `~/.docker/compose/.env`)

    # Global Settings
    COMPOSE_HTTP_TIMEOUT=60
    DOCKERCONFDIR=~/.config/appdata
    DOCKERGID=999
    DOCKERHOSTNAME=DockSTARTer
    DOCKERLOGGING_MAXFILE=10
    DOCKERLOGGING_MAXSIZE=200k
    DOCKERSTORAGEDIR=/mnt/storage
    PGID=1000
    PUID=1000
    TZ=America/Chicago

### Changes to your paths

When that's all set then you will need to change the paths you're going to use in the containers from:

`/downloads` => `/storage/downloads`

`/audiobooks` => `/storage/medialibrary/audiobooks`

`/books` => `/storage/medialibrary/books`

`/comics` => `/storage/medialibrary/comics`

`/movies` => `/storage/medialibrary/movies`

`/music` => `/storage/medialibrary/music`

`/tv` => `/storage/medialibrary/tv`
