Ability to move the TDarr server between different operating systems

[VLTier]

First of all, thank you very much for this impressive project!

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. no

Describe the solution you'd like When re-importing a backup it would be cool to have the ability edit the data like the paths for the media folders etc. I have a TDarr server on a Windows Desktop (native) and would like to import it into a Docker container. The folder structure is the same although instead of a drive letter (Z:/aLibraryFolder) it would be absolut path (/media/aLibraryFolder).

Describe alternatives you've considered Maybe instead of import functionality a tool to edit the backup zip? I tried to change the paths by and but it keeps crashing when import it to the docker container Additional context I have the TDarr server normally running on a Synology server as a Docker container. To improve the indexing I removed the Synology container and created a native Server on a Windows machine. After some time running, I wanted to move server configuration back to the Synology so that the Windows does need to run 24/7

Hello, Docker volume mapping is designed for this. For example on Windows you can use:

-v C:\Transcode\server/:/app/server

If moving to Linux you can then use something like:

-v /mnt/media/server:/app/server

I don't think this solves the file locations of all the files processed on a windows server

For example, in Windows, the file is mapped to D:/TV Shows/XYZ/XYZ.mkv, this also is in the files within the fileJSONDB folder: {"_id":"Z:/TV Shows/XYZ/Season 02/02x04 - XYZ.mkv","file":"Z:/TV Shows/XYZ/Season 02/02x04 - XYZ.mkv","DB"

When you try restoring a backup on a linux-based system, none of these files will be mapped and tdarr will want to re-process all files again since it believes everything are new files since folder structure is likely /volume 1/TV Shows/XYZ/XYZ.mkv instead

If there was a tool to convert all paths for libraries/files upon restoration of backup, that would be amazing

Someone had tried migrating from windows to linux: https://www.reddit.com/r/Tdarr/comments/zufjja/tdarr_move_server_from_windows_to_linux_arm/

The pathing is incorrect in the previously scanned files. Problems happen due to this.

This is not a workable solution.

I have the same user story. "I have a TDarr server on a Windows Desktop (native) and would like to import it into a Docker container."

Same issue.
