Frequently asked questions
|
|
**************************
|
|
|
|
**Q:** *I'm using docker. Where are my documents?*
|
|
|
|
**A:** Your documents are stored inside the docker volume ``paperless_media``.
|
|
Docker manages this volume automatically for you. It is a persistent storage
|
|
and will persist as long as you don't explicitly delete it. The actual location
|
|
depends on your host operating system. On Linux, chances are high that this location
|
|
is
|
|
|
|
.. code::
|
|
|
|
/var/lib/docker/volumes/paperless_media/_data
|
|
|
|
.. caution::
|
|
|
|
Dont mess with this folder. Don't change permissions and don't move
|
|
files around manually. This folder is meant to be entirely managed by docker
|
|
and paperless.
|
|
|
|
**Q:** *Will paperless-ng run on Raspberry Pi?*
|
|
|
|
**A:** The short answer is yes. I've tested it on a Raspberry Pi 3 B.
|
|
The long answer is that certain parts of
|
|
Paperless will run very slow, such as the tesseract OCR. On Rasperry Pi,
|
|
try to OCR documents before feeding them into paperless so that paperless can
|
|
reuse the text. The web interface should be alot snappier, since it runs
|
|
in your browser and paperless has to do much less work to serve the data.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Consider setting ``PAPERLESS_OPTIMIZE_THUMBNAILS`` to false to speed up
|
|
the consumption process. This takes quite a bit of time on Raspberry Pi.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Updating the :ref:`automatic matching algorithm <advanced-automatic_matching>`
|
|
takes quite a bit of time. However, the update mechanism checks if your
|
|
data has changed before doing the heavy lifting. If you experience the
|
|
algorithm taking too much cpu time, consider changing the schedule in the
|
|
admin interface to daily or weekly. You can also manually invoke the task
|
|
by changing the date and time of the next run to today/now.
|
|
|
|
The actual matching of the algorithm is fast and works on Raspberry Pi as
|
|
well as on any other device.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Q:** *How do I install paperless-ng on Raspberry Pi?*
|
|
|
|
**A:** There is not docker image for ARM available. If you know how to build
|
|
that automatically, I'm all ears. For now, you have to grab the latest release
|
|
archive from the project page and build the image yourself. The release comes
|
|
with the front end already compiled, so you don't have to do this on the Pi.
