Help with "viewable" config

[loorisr]

Hello,

I have v1.0.3 on docker and a photo folder mounted on /photos. I don't want to index it but I want it to be browsable so I made this config:

server:
  sources:
    - path: /photos
      config:
        conditionals:
          ignoreHidden: true
          ignoreZeroSizeFolders: true
          rules:
            - folderPath: "/"
              viewable: true
            - neverWatchPath: "/"

but I have this error

500: directory or item excluded from indexing

How can I make this configuration please?

Thanks!

just want to mention if you haven't looked, check out the docs:

• https://filebrowserquantum.com/en/docs/advanced/source-configuration/conditional-rules/
• https://filebrowserquantum.com/en/docs/advanced/source-configuration/sources/#disableindexing

These rules folderPath values were designed for subfolders underneath the root /photos path. If you want to disable indexing but make them viewable, simply disabling indexing for the source should work.

But you make a good point, this is a point of confusion -- why have a separate configuration for this? It should work exactly as you configured it and will deprecate source.disableindexing in the future.

thanks for your feedback. I will not change for source.disableindexing if you'll deprecate it.
Unfortunately the settings I've used above doesn't work for me, as filebrowser doesn't allow to open the source at all.

I just tested this config and it does indeed work as expected on stable (1.1.0):

server:
  sources:
    - path: /photos
      config:
        conditionals:
          ignoreHidden: true
          ignoreZeroSizeFolders: true
          rules:
            - folderPath: "/"
              viewable: true

All viewable in the ui. Maybe this changed in 1.1.x ? Can you try upgrading?

I've tried with 1.1.0 and it still doesnt work (error 500)

But if I remove ignoreZeroSizeFolders: true then it works
