This article will show you how to change the disk location for output data.
This will change the startup process found in the Getting Started article:
https://support.sighthound.com/kb/article/3-getting-started-with-alpr/
If ALPR is running, stop it
From the command line, use "docker ps" to get the CONTAINER ID (For this example it is: 1ac6336feaf5)
docker ps
CONTAINER ID IMAGE ....
1ac6336feaf5 sighthound/alpr ....
Use the CONTAINER ID as an argument to the "docker stop " command (this will take a couple of minutes to fully complete)
docker stop 1ac6336feaf5
1ac6336feaf5
Get the location where you want to create the output file structure. On a Mac, you can get a disk name with: ls -l /Volumes
Make a new "alpr" directory in that location (example for a disk named USB20FD) with a command like this: mkdir /Volumes/USB20FD/alpr
Copy the default directory into the new location with a command like this: cp -R ~/Desktop/Sighthound-ALPR /Volumes/USB20FD/alpr
This will take a few minutes to complete. Here are the commands using an external drive named "USB20FD":
ls /Volumes
Macintosh HD USB20FD
mkdir /Volumes/USB20FD/alpr
cp -R ~/Desktop/Sighthound-ALPR /Volumes/USB20FD/alpr
Start the services using the new location of the output file in the command:
docker run -d --name sighthound-alpr -p 9600:9600 \
--restart unless-stopped \
-v /Volumes/USB20FD/alpr/Sighthound-ALPR:/var/alpr \
sighthound/alpr
