For OMV Users, help to use Dockge

[trythatagain]

Below is a bash script that I used Chatgpt to help write, I haven't written any code for over 30 years, so it could probably be tighter, but it does what I wanted.

Please not that if you have already created compose and .env files in the same folder as your OMV stack, it will OVERWRITE them.

Change start_folder to your compose folder, it will then go thru all your stack folders and check that there is a stack_folder.yml and stack_folder.env and then copy stack_folder.yml to compose.yml, and create a .env file from your global.env and stack_folder.env.

You can now test out Dockge using OMV compose setup. Remember if you make changes via Dockge you MUST ALSO ADD THE CHANGE VIA OMV, because OMV compose files are generated by OMV

You can also remove the created files if need be from the script.

Hope this might be useful to some one.
