How to trigger a rescan?

[jdaviescoates]

I've uploaded some new albums to my Volume but they aren't showing up in Navidrome.

In the docs it says:

CLI

To trigger a scan:

gosu cloudron:cloudron /app/code/navidrome -c /app/data/config.toml scan -f

But I've so far never used the Cloudron CLI. How can I trigger a scan without it? Can I paste that command into the web terminal or something?

Thanks!

@jdaviescoates yeah this is not the cloudron cli, this is the one of navidrome. So you just open up a web-terminal window from the app and paste that command in there.

@msbt thanks! I guess I could've tried that before asking! But at least now there is this thread if anyone else isn't sure.

Just did it and it's doing its thing...

@staff perhaps add "open up a web-terminal window from the app and paste the command in there" to the docs?

@jdaviescoates such a button would be nice, however it is basically impossible to figure out what your Cloudron dashboard domain is from the docs perspective to craft such a url

@nebulon I think he just wants the web-terminal part added, so people know where to paste that line

[jdaviescoates]

@nebulon I'm confused. I haven't said anything about a button!

I'm just suggesting that you improve the navidrome docs at https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/navidrome/#cli to make it clearer how to trigger a scan, i.e.

To trigger a scan open up the web terminal for your Navidrome app and paste this command

gosu cloudron:cloudron /app/code/navidrome -c /app/data/config.toml scan -f

@jdaviescoates ah of course, I've added a line for that now in the docs.

@nebulon thanks. Seems like you need to keep the browser web terminal window open until the process finishes too? I guess perhaps add something about that too?
