Hello,

On my side it doesn't work when I run docker I get this error:

2023/04/17 09:48:07 open config.yml: no such file or directory
panic: open config.yml: no such file or directory

goroutine 1 [running]:

main.main()
	/app/main.go:34 +0xf8

Yet I created a config folder in the emby_exporter_go folder then in the config folder I created the config.yml file.

Hey!
Can you share your docker-compose or the docker command you use.

[dylan62370 6]

Hello @Bagul!

I used this command

docker run -d -it \
   --name=emby_exporter \
   -e CONFIG_FILE=config.yml \
   -v '/emby_exporter_go/config/config.yml:/config/file.yml' \
   bagul/goemby_exporter:latest

I installed portainer to have more visibility on the problem and I see no volume created

[jaycedk 381]

Hmm whats you config file name.

Here you are looking for config.yml 

 -e CONFIG_FILE=config.yml \

And here your at telling docker to look for file.yml

-v '/emby_exporter_go/config/config.yml:/config/file.yml' \

But the file is named config.yml right ?

Ok, I see.
The variable 'CONFIG_FILE' allows to define another name for the configuration file. So, if you put '[...]:/config/file.yml', you will create a configuration file called 'file.yml' in the config folder. But you have to specify the same name in the CONFIG_FILE variable.

[Bagul 146]

It should look like this:

docker run -d -it \
   --name=emby_exporter \
   -e CONFIG_FILE=config.yml \
   -v '/emby_exporter_go/config/config.yml:/config/config.yml' \
   bagul/goemby_exporter:latest

or:

 

docker run -d -it \
   --name=emby_exporter \
   -e CONFIG_FILE=file.yml \
   -v '/emby_exporter_go/config/config.yml:/config/file.yml' \
   bagul/goemby_exporter:latest

And you have to check at the location '/emby_exporter_go/config/' on the parent system that the item 'config.yml' or 'file.yml' is a file and not a folder and then fill in the information that looks like this:

server:
  url: "http://<ip|domain name>"
  port: 8096
  token: "your token"
  userID: "your userID"
options: # optional
  geoip: true # optional : default false

Hello,

So here is what I put, however I always get an error, I have before launching the docker command

I created the config.yml file in the /emby_exporter_go/config folder

It's a docker error.

Try this:

 

docker run -d -it \
   --name=emby_exporter \
   -e CONFIG_FILE=config.yml \
   -v '/emby_exporter_go/config:/config' \
   bagul/goemby_exporter:latest

 

And if you have a folder with this name: 'config.yml' in your 'emby_exporter_folder/config' delete it.

Hello @Bagul

So as you indicated I deleted the config.yml file that I had created in /emby_exporter_go/config

However, after launching as you can see, it didn't create any config.yml file so I could set up my configuration.

I added in screenshot the docker logs if needed.

No. I asked to delete the 'config.yml' folder if there was one. You must have a config.yml file but docker creates a folder not a file.

 

[dylan62370 6]

Docker does not create any volume, it does not create a config.yml folder.

[Bagul 146]

What system are you on? The natural behavior of Docker when you give it a destination folder is to create all the folders provided.

[dylan62370 6]

I have just placed the order again and it has just created a volume for me. It has created a config.yml folder.

Or should I create a config.yml file to integrate my configuration?

 

[Bagul 146]

It is therefore necessary:
1. Delete the config.yml folder
2. Create a config.yml file in the same location

The config.yml element must be a file.

[dylan62370 6]

Here is how I did it.

I deleted the config.yml folder and the _data folder that was present in the config.yml folder.

I then created a config.yml file in /var/lib/docker/volumes/ and I put my configuration in it.

I then started my docker but it still shows me the same errors.

And I still see the volume as unused.

2023/04/19 08:36:14 open config.yml: no such file or directory

panic: open config.yml: no such file or directory


goroutine 1 [running]:

log.Panicf(0x958042, 0x2, 0xc00014ddf0, 0x1, 0x1)

	/app/conf/conf.go:38 +0xf5

main.main()

	/app/main.go:34 +0xf8

 

[dylan62370 6]

This is the current volume configuration. Since the creation I have not made any changes.

[Bagul 146]

Ok I didn't see the destination path.

 

Let's start again... The tool you are trying to implement needs a configuration file.

The basic command to install on docket that works is this:

docker run -d -it \
   --name=emby_exporter \
   -e CONFIG_FILE=file.yml \
   -v '/path/to/your/config/file.yml:/config/file.yml' \
   bagul/goemby_exporter:latest

So if I run this command, docker should create the path '/path/to/your/config/file.yml/'. with file.yml which will be a folder and not a file because docker doesn't know it is a file.

In your example it is a docker volume and not a folder that you specified. The config.yml folder should not contain anything since it is a file.

So I invite you to recreate the container correctly by deleting all the volumes that were created for the export and ONLY the volumes created for the exporter.

This should work if you have created the config.yml file in the '/emby_exporter_go/config/' folder

So like this: '/emby_exporter_go/config/config.yml' (taking into account the name you provided in the 'CONFIG_FILE' variable.

N/A

Edited April 19, 2023 by Bagul

[dylan62370 6]

I tested the basic command to see if docker creates a path. It does not create any path or volume...

docker run -d -it \
   --name=emby_exporter \
   -e CONFIG_FILE=file.yml \
   -v '/path/to/your/config/file.yml:/config/file.yml' \
   bagul/goemby_exporter:latest

I then tested with this command by adding in the /emby_exporter_go/config folder the config.yml file.

docker run -d -it \
   --name=emby_exporter \
   -e CONFIG_FILE=config.yml \
   -v '/emby_exporter_go/config:/config' \
   bagul/goemby_exporter:latest

With this command, it does not create a volume because I think it uses the config.yml file that I created in the /emby_exporter_go/config folder

Here are the logs:

     

2023/04/19 09:11:05 open config.yml: no such file or directory

panic: open config.yml: no such file or directory


goroutine 1 [running]:

main.main()

	/app/main.go:34 +0xf8

And in screenshot is the volume created with the config.yml file that I created in the config folder.

Can you run this command: docker inspect <name_of_your_container>

And share the "Mounts" section

[dylan62370 6]

Hello @Bagul

Yes, here it is

        "Mounts": [
            {
                "Type": "bind",

Good point! It finally works! The container is working thank you very much for your help and patience! I'll be able to get the metrics now!
