That looks really cool. At the moment I scan everything with OneDrive, and sync it with my NAS. However, it doesn't have e.g. OCR features, it's pretty basic. Will have a look, thanks!
definitely try it out. You can auto-ingest from the scanner folder and it will do all the rest of the sorting for you. I go in every few weeks/months and look at the recent documents to sort and fix up any meta-data/sorting.
Thanks. I've set it up and imported all my existing scans. Works great.
awesome. i think that the initial install "just works", then you can start to tweak it. just make sure you mount actual directories, not docker volumes, otherwise you cannto see the files on the disk.
Thanks for the suggestion! I tried to do that and have the files reside on a mount (on my NAS) but that didn't work, resulted in a "chmod" error. So, instead I've created a shell script that runs every night and creates a backup & copies the resulting zip file to my NAS :)
By the way, when using docker volumes, you can see the actual files as well. In my case (RPI4) they are located here: /var/lib/docker/volumes/paperless_media/_data/documents
good to know! thanks
With the right permissions you can get to them. ( i needed root, well started with root)
