Two config bugs found on the already-deployed split-host OCR worker (module 3): (1) `command: celery ...` was routed through manage.py by the image entrypoint because it didn't start with "/" — fixed with an absolute gosu+celery path. (2) SCRATCH_DIR (/tmp/paperless) was not shared over NFS like data/media/consume, so tasks picked up by worker@SOLARIA instead of worker@PIHA failed with "File not found" — fixed by adding a paperless_scratch NFS volume/bind mount on both sides. Verified live on PIHA + SOLARIA: test PDFs dropped into consume/ were split across both workers, the SOLARIA-picked task completed OCR with zero File not found errors, test documents cleaned up afterward.

# Paperless OCR worker (SOLARIA) — KB module 3.
|
||
#
|
||
# Same image as services/paperless/ but the command is overridden to run ONLY
|
||
# a celery worker (no webserver, no consumer, no beat). It attaches to the
|
||
# broker/DB of paperless@PIHA and sees the document storage via NFS from PIHA.
|
||
# This split is NOT officially supported by paperless-ngx but is the
|
||
# maintainer-confirmed pattern (GH discussion #3900); constraints and risks
|
||
# are documented in README.md.
|
||
#
|
||
# When SOLARIA is powered down this worker simply disappears — queued tasks
|
||
# wait in Redis@PIHA (AOF-persisted) and PIHA's built-in concurrency-1 worker
|
||
# grinds slowly. When SOLARIA returns, this worker drains the queue.
|
||
services:
|
||
paperless-worker:
|
||
# MUST be the exact same tag as services/paperless/docker-compose.yml —
|
||
# shared DB schema + celery task signatures. Bump both together.

# Worker-only mode: the image entrypoint handles USERMAP + language

# install, then execs this instead of the full s6 service tree.
|
||
# OCR (ocrmypdf/tesseract) is CPU-bound — the win here is SOLARIA's
|
||
# 24 cores, not the GPU (stock paperless OCR does not use CUDA).
|
||
#
|
||
# MUST be an absolute path. /sbin/docker-entrypoint.sh branches on
|
||
# argv[0]: anything NOT starting with "/" is treated as a Django
|
||
# management-command name and handed to `manage.py` (`exec gosu paperless
|
||
# python3 manage.py "$@"`) — so a bare `celery ...` command fails with
|
||
# "Unknown command: 'celery'". An absolute path takes the `else exec "$@"`
|
||
# branch instead, running celery directly. `gosu paperless` in front
|
||
# replaces the implicit gosu the manage.py branch would have applied, so
|
||
# the process still runs as uid 1000 (paperless), not root — required so
|
||
# files it writes on the NFS-shared storage keep the correct owner and
|
||
# match USERMAP_UID/GID below. Verified against the image: gosu is at
|
||
# /usr/sbin/gosu, celery at /usr/local/bin/celery.
