Where Does Dockge Store Stacks and Data?
Where Dockge keeps compose stacks, dockge.db and agent data.
Last updated
Dockge centers on a stacks directory with one folder per service holding its compose file, plus a small database for agents and settings beside it. The web UI edits the same files you could touch by hand.
Persist the data tree outside the container or recreates blank it. Terminal and agent features read from the same store, so keep the whole directory together during moves.
Where Dockge stores this, by platform
<dockge data>/stacks/
Stacks with per-service compose files plus database and agent state. Verify filenames by listing the data dir; variants differ. Persist the tree outside the container.
Frequently asked questions
What must I back up for Dockge?
Back up the stacks directory plus dockge.db. Compose files define services while the database holds agents and settings; one without the other restores half a setup.
Where are my Dockge compose files?
Confirm by listing the Dockge data dir on your install, since image variants rename stores. The stacks folder with per-service compose files is the stable half across versions.
