Configure Storage Directories#

Configure the Assets Directory#

ASSET_STORAGE_DIR is the host path used to store uploaded files to. If not specified, an empty non persistent directory inside the container is used.

To configure, add the following to the Helm overrides file discussed in Configuration Options. In the following, <ASSET_DIR_ON_HOST> is a directory on host machine that will be used to save assets like video files uploaded to VSS.

vss:
  applicationSpecs:
    vss-deployment:
      containers:
        vss:
          env:
          - name: ASSET_STORAGE_DIR
            value: "/tmp/custom-asset-dir"
  extraPodVolumes:
  - name: custom-asset-dir
    hostPath:
      path: <ASSET_DIR_ON_HOST>
  extraPodVolumeMounts:
  - name: custom-asset-dir
    mountPath: /tmp/custom-asset-dir

Configure the Input Video Streams Directory#

You might want to skip uploading files using Gradio and instead add them from a local path.

To do this, use EXAMPLE_STREAMS_DIR environment config, which allows you to specify a directory containing sample streams for Gradio UI to load.

To configure, add the following to the Helm overrides file discussed in Configuration Options. In the following, <SAMPLE_STREAMS_DIR_ON_HOST> is a directory on the host machine that contains sample streams for Gradio UI to load.

vss:
  applicationSpecs:
    vss-deployment:
      containers:
        vss:
          env:
          - name: EXAMPLE_STREAMS_DIR
            value: "/tmp/custom-example-streams-dir"
  extraPodVolumes:
  - name: custom-example-streams-dir
    hostPath:
      path: <SAMPLE_STREAMS_DIR_ON_HOST>
  extraPodVolumeMounts:
  - name: custom-example-streams-dir
    mountPath: /tmp/custom-example-streams-dir
