Docker container size

[PlusninAlexander]

Good day. I installed a Nyan-bot, after some time the docker container grew to a size of about 50 gigs (this is also written in the requirements) and will probably continue to grow.

Is it possible to somehow limit the disk used? Maybe there is some option in the configs, or something similar?

I also considered the option of stopping the Nyan-bot, deleting the docker container and starting the bot again. How will this option affect the bot's performance? Is it like a reset to the initial state? What do you say, what advice do you give?

Hello. I am also a user of this script. For nearly a month of work, database size has grown only to 1.7GB:

# du -hs nyan/mongo/
1.7G    nyan/mongo/

What is the size of your database and for how many months has it been running?

As of archiving the data, I have also asked about this in the neighbour opened issue and as the author have mentioned, you can use archive.sh for this.

Привет. Я тоже являюсь пользователем этого скрипта. За почти месяц работы размер базы вырос всего до 1,7Гб:

# du -hs nyan/mongo/
1.7G  nyan/mongo/

Каков размер вашей базы данных и сколько месяцев она работает?

Что касается архивирования данных, я также спрашивал об этом в соседнем открытом выпуске , и, как упомянул автор , для этого вы можете использовать archive.sh .

It was about 40 GB Less than a month

I suggest you to use du command to examine which directory exactly occupies most of the space. Maybe it's some error logs and not the actual database.

I was talking about the docker container, not the database :)

By following the official installation guide, mongo database is being running under a docker container and no other parts of the script.

In my case /data/mongo is 17GB for all the time the system is running. The container is indeed 35GB, which is unexpected, but it doesn't grow.

In my case the contained has grown to occupy all of the available space because of the log file: /var/lib/docker/containers/CONTAINER_ID/CONTAINER_ID-json.log I have found here various solutions: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31829587/docker-container-logs-taking-all-my-disk-space
