[Feature] Config setting for Database Path #123

Closed etherwrangler closed 4 months ago

etherwrangler commented 4 months ago

Would it be possible to add a config setting for either DATABASE_PATH or DATA_DIR? My use case with this is to change the SQLite db from the existing location of ${data_dir}/oxyromon to the folder on my NAS where I have the EXE for oxyromon copied.

This folder also has the external programs such as 7z etc allowing me to run oxyromon from my desktop or a VM that is always on my NAS to manage the ROM library. Neither would access the database at the same time so in this use case I would not be worried about corruption.

Not sure what I was thinking yesterday but after thinking on this for a day this would work better in a container than what I'm trying to do.

Actually this is already possible via the undocumented OXYROMON_DATA_DIRECTORY env variable, but looks like you thought of an alternative already :)
