Copy local data from local to docker

[Ellysian]

I have been using LibreChat with npm for a while now. I have all my settings, presets, agents, and chats there. I recently switched to running LibreChat with Docker, and everything works great. Except all my custom settings are no longer there, and as if I just installed a fresh copy.

Is there a simple way to copy all the local data from local installation (that I run with npm) to docker container?

if you were running on npm, you were likely connecting to MongoDB installed on your machine or using Atlas.

Use the override file to change the MONGO_URI env variable if you want to point to the same Mongo connection you were using before:
https://www.librechat.ai/docs/configuration/docker_override

example:

services:
  api:
    environment:
        - MONGO_URI=your-mongo-connection-string

If you want to keep everything as is, and simply port in your data, you will need to look into mongoexport but this is just a tad bit more advanced
