SQLite ?

[Macrisu]

Hello!

I saw a new option on the config file, but no info on using this SQLite file.

# database configuration for persisting charge sessions and settings
# database:
#   type: sqlite
#   dsn: <path-to-db-file>

I run evcc on a Synology - docker.
I've added this and I get no error in the log, but also the DB file is not created.

database:
  type: sqlite
  dsn: /volume1/docker/evcc31/evcc31.db

I‘m sure it is created. Are you sure that that does what you think it does? Does the container see this (apparently host) folder?

1. I really do not know what it does.
2. I must create a folder where docker has access to create the db? What is the mount path?

Fixed

# database configuration for persisting charge sessions and settings
database:
  type: sqlite
#  dsn: /root/.evcc

You'll have to familarize yourself with Docker volume mounts and how files and folders are shared between Docker and the host operating system. This is beyond scope of evcc.

There is a description right on the first row: database configuration for persisting charge sessions and settings

OK, we might complain about "missing" information that there is a default path/database which is being created by evcc thus session/settings persist.

You "just" need to configure in case you like to use e.g. an existing DB or path. Thus you won't need to configure to still get your data stored.

If you are not deeply familiar with docker and host/container configuration I recommend to leave default (not configured in yaml).

@andig Am I correct with "default path/database" and these configuration in yaml is optional?
