Ability to view/edit arbitrary config files from UI (like .env file)

[semiligneous]

Before raising as a feature request, I wanted to discuss whether this has been considered previously, and perhaps whether was already determined to be a bad idea / in-plausible for some reason.

The ability to edit the .env file is great, but many containers have other files providing configuration (and they may not be able to use .env since it is more constrained in it's format). Examples include Caddyfile for Caddy, config.yaml for Immich-Kiosk, nginx.conf for nginx (as per this discussion).

I love that dockge allows me to administer my stacks without needing to get into a terminal, making it easy from mobile and other devices around the home. However, many containers require changes to other config files, and then I have to get to a terminal anyway.

I suspect the arbitrary file would be defined for each container - presumably in a dockge config/.env file such as:

custom_config_file_for_[container-name]: path/to/config.file

so an example of dockge/.env might have:

custom_config_file_for_caddy: Caddyfile
custom_config_file_for_nginx-web-server-1: nginx.conf
custom_config_file_for_immich-kiosk: config.yaml

I'm sure there's more to consider! Would be great to discuss.

thanks

I would also like a way to edit files besides the compose and .env file. Many containers have no use for an .env file as well
