Introduction

There are multiple ways to configure ownCloud to run in a Dockerized environment.

Using Environment Variables

The image provides additional environment variables that can be configured for the use with the container. To identify available ones, see the file overwrite.config.php which can be found in the config folder. This folder is located in /mnt/data in the container or locally at the respective bind mount.

Using a Configuration File

Rather than using environment variables to configure your ownCloud instance, you can use additional configuration files, as was possible with earlier releases of ownCloud. This configuration method is only possible when using bind mounts, because access to the config sub folder is required.
