Yes, apologies.

I didn't want to mess with the golang code itself for t'other ticket.

The following PR resolves both issues; #153

For reference;

# Stop your container
sudo docker stop container1

# Pull the new image
sudo docker pull cwtch:latest

# Create a new container and copy across the volumes
sudo docker create --volumes-from container1 -e CWTCH_CONFIG_DIR=/etc/cwtch/ cwtch:latest

# Start new container
sudo docker start FOO

You should see that the new container (foo) retains the config (hidden service address etc) of the old container (container1).

any reason no to have the DOCKERFILE set the env variable of CWTCH_CONFIG_DIR to keep it even simpler to start? I can add this, I'm just adding the message store and metrics to the config dir too

None at all.

An if check in docker-entrypoint would be ideal.

if [ -z "${CWTCH_CONFIG_DIR}" ]; then
CWTCH_CONFIG_DIR=/etc/cwtch/
fi
