Add Folder on Windows to be accessible by Nextcloud

Docker Desktop

Good Day Everyone.

Nextcloud AIO is what I have.

I have come in search of help to accomplish a task I am trying to do on Windows.

I am using Docker Desktop.

I have a folder on “Music”, in F:\Music\iTunes\Music on Windows, that I do want to show up in Nexcloud folder structure.

I however have an ncdata folder already on Windows which Nextcloud uses and stores things.

How do I accomplish making the music folder avilable in Nextcloud while also maintaining the ncdata so that both can cooexist.

The goal is to use nextcoud webdav to constantly maintain the Music folder up to date no matter where I am.

I have searched the internet and tried various steps, but cannot seem to get it done.

I settled on SMB by External Storage plugin, but that creates extreme lag and bottlenecks the syncing process.

When I created the nextcloud installation, I missed the part where I could set it up to have access to Local Storage. This is what I need help with fixing now.

I am a novice, but good at following instructions. So, if anyone can please help me with a step by step guide to doing this, I will apprciate it.

Can you tell us more about that? Or even better, can you show a compose file or command how you created the container, and explain how your folder structure look like on the Windows host and how you would like to see it in the container?

You can always bind mount a folder from the host into a subfolder inside the container.
