What is ownCloud?
ownCloud is the most straightforward way to file sync and share data. You don’t need to worry about where or how to access your files. With ownCloud all your data is where ever you are; accessible on all devices, any time.
There’s several ways to install it. I’ll show you the easiest way with Docker Compose.
First install a recent version of Docker on your WD My Cloud device.
Then get Docker Compose with these SSH commands.
dc=/shares/Volume_1/Nas_Prog/docker/docker/docker-compose
curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.22.0/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname - m) -o $dc
chmod +x $dc
ln -sf $dc /sbin/docker-compose
Now prepare your ownCloud setup, based on this.
I added an offset of 10000 to the HTTP(S) ports as the WD web interface occupies port 80 and 443.
and I’d suggest you pick a better admin password…
cd /shares/Volume_1/Nas_Prog
mkdir owncloud && cd owncloud
cat << EOF >| .env
OWNCLOUD_VERSION=10.0
OWNCLOUD_DOMAIN=localhost
ADMIN_USERNAME=admin
ADMIN_PASSWORD=admin
HTTP_PORT=10080
HTTPS_PORT=10443
EOF
wget -O docker-compose.yml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/owncloud-docker/server/master/docker-compose.yml
Finally start the containers in the background
docker-compose up -d
Voila, ownCloud is running at http://yourIP:10080 and at https://yourIP:10443 …
How to access the existing data on your shares?
This is a bit more complex.
First enable local storage in the owncloud config.
It is located in /shares/Volume_1/Nas_Prog/_docker/volumes/owncloud_files/_data/config/config.php
Add this line (e.g. right after the datadirectory line)
'files_external_allow_create_new_local' => 'true',
Then add your share to the volumes section in the docker compose file and add this new docker volume to the owncloud service.
As an example, I’m adding the Public (WD) share as the wd_public docker volume.
In the owncloud service, this volume is available at /mnt/wd_public

Update your containers with this command
docker-compose up -d
Now open the owncloud web interface, go to settings, storage.
Add Storage with type Local and use the path /mnt/wd_public.
Enjoy!
