I'm trying to set up a secondary backup for my Audiobookshelf (ABS) installation, but I'm having trouble locating the installation directory. It's a bit frustrating that neither Docker nor the ABS web app allows you to easily access the installation location. I've been doing my research, but if there's a hidden way to find it, I'd love to know! By the way, I already managed to find the data I wanted to back up, thanks to the initial setup I did myself. I appreciate the helpful vibes!

To find your Audiobookshelf installation, you'll need to check how you configured it via Docker. If you created a 'docker-compose' file, that will show you your bind mounts or volumes. For backups, search 'how to backup docker volumes' if you used volumes, or just back up directories if you bind-mounted them.
If you're new to Docker just for ABS, I recommend diving a bit deeper into the concepts of bind mounts and volumes. It’ll really help clarify where things are stored. There are some great tutorials online that can guide you through the basics!
Here’s a quick tip: if you set up Docker for Audiobookshelf, the config and metadata locations depend on what you specified in your configuration. Check your Docker setup for any paths you assigned. For example, in your docker-compose, you’d find something like '/path/to/config'—that’s where your data will be!
