  • 1.  how to keep persitent data with AppHost

    Posted 08/19/20 02:41 AM
    Resilient application: " Schedule for Resilient" has the parameter  "datastore _dir" in app.config as follows:

    [fn_scheduler]
        :
    # directory for the sqlite persistent db
    datastore_dir =

    "datastore_dir" is supposed to specify the path to keep persistent data but it is the path in the container when " Schedule for Resilient" runs on AppHost environment.

    Since the container path is just a volatile rather than persistent unless special treatment is done, I wonder if AppHost has any special mechanism such as overlay mount

    Hi Yohji,

    Unfortunately, this capability will not work in containers and any file added to an app is currently read only. However, a future release of fn_scheduler will introduce the ability to use a true database so that persisted schedules can be used with App Host.

    And what is your current "datastore_dir" suggestion in the current AppHost Environment ?
    datastore_dir = /var/rescircuits ?

    Yes. You can place it there. But be aware that once the container restarts, the db will be lost. The better solution is to refactor the application to use an external db such PostgreSQL. We will schedule that work.
