UB Trace overwrites custom data with demo files on startup

[gavin-dunlap-luminar]

Describe the bug
User data copied to the directory mounted against /home/useblocks/app/docs/ubtrace is overwritten on server startup and replaced with demo data. I wouldn't expect user data to be cleared without error, warnings, etc.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Build project with ubt builder
2. Deploy project to server folder /data/ubtrace/ and /data/ubtrace/ubtrace_server.toml (both files having been generated by the builder)
3. Verify folder contents
4. Mount /data/ubtrace to the docker image in docker-compose config
5. Start container
6. Check folder contents again, user data is gone and replaced by example data.

Long-Form Explanation

I am referencing the documentation below for the processes I am following:

• https://ubtrace.useblocks.com/installation.html
• https://ubtrace.useblocks.com/integration.html#integration

Basically, as the docs describes, you can mount custom data into the ubtrace docker by mounting a volume to /home/useblocks/app/docs/ubtrace.

I have using the following docker setup:

  ubtrace:
    image: ghcr.io/useblocks/ubtrace:latest
    depends_on:
      - vis-tree
      - oidc
    ports:
      - "7100:7130"
    working_dir: /
    volumes:
      - /data/ubtrace:/home/useblocks/app/docs/ubtrace/
    environment:
      MESSAGE: Starting ubTrace on localhost:7130
      PUBLIC_VIS_TREE_HOST: localhost:7140
      UBTRACE_SERVER_VIS_TREE_INTERNAL_HOST: http://vis-tree:7140
      UBTRACE_SERVER_AUTH_ISSUER_URL: localhost:7180
      UBTRACE_SERVER_AUTH_DISCOVER_URL: localhost:7180/.well-known/openid-configuration

Here, I mount my files in /data/ubtrace/<project> and /data/ubtrace/ubtrace_server.toml, these files are generated via the ubt_sphinx builder as described here: https://ubtrace.useblocks.com/usage/builder.html#builder, specifically, with sphinx-build -b ubtrace . <output>

I then run the following commands to start the server:

sudo docker-compose up -d && sudo docker-compose start

Once I check the /data/ubtrace directory again, my file contents have been replaced by the demo-project. No errors are mentioned in the logs.

Expected behavior
I would expect files that I put in the mounted directory to

1. Not be deleted on startup
2. To be read on startup

Additionally, I would not expect the example projects to load if existing data is present.
