Library game detection

[Hollowscope4022]

Retrom won't detect any of my games or folders, the path to my library is "/home/brett/Downloads/library/" and it's structured like this /library/game_boy_advance/Sonic_Advance/SonicAdvance.gba Am I doing something wrong?

Can you please provide your docker compose file and any logs from the containers/UI?

You do not have your volumes mapped correctly. In general, a volume is mapped like so:

{path/on/host}:{path/in/container}.

You currently have your library mapped like so:

volumes:
  - /home/brett/Downloads/library/

Note how you have not included the part for in the container? Change it to:

volumes:
  - /home/brett/Downloads/library/:/app/library

Similarly, you have the volume for your database mapped like:

volumes:
  - /path/to/pg_data:/var/lib/postgresql/data

and I would assume that you do not want to store all of retrom's data at path/to/pg_data literally. I would update that to a safe directory on your machine that you want the database data stored to.

If you are somewhat new to Docker Compose, I would suggest you take a look at the docs to get an idea of how to properly configure these services: https://docs.docker.com/compose/gettingstarted/
