You want to mount a persistent volume for the MongoDB container. Or, switch to using a hosted service like MongoDB Atlas instead.

got it. can i use s3 as a persistent volume? will this work?

depends_on:
      - mongo
    environment:
      - MONGODB_URI=<mongodb://root:password@mongo:27017/>
      - APP_ORIGIN=${APP_ORIGIN}
      - API_HOST=${API_HOST}
    volumes:
      # - uploads:/usr/local/src/app/packages/back-end/uploads
      - uploads:
          S3_BUCKET:${S3_BUCKET}
          S3_REGION:${S3_REGION}
volumes:
  uploads:

You can use that for file uploads, but not for MongoDB.

Okay. Thanks.

There are 2 directories to persist. uploads is only for file uploads (e.g. adding screenshots of experiments). The other directory you need is on the

mongo

container and not the growthbook one. In the mongo container, data is stored at

/data/db

so that needs to be persisted

Thanks for your help.
