permissions of postgres data folder about bitmagnet HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi, I don't think I've understood the problem being caused by the file permissions but it would be best to refer to the Postgres and/or Docker documentation to resolve this.

The app can be configured to point at any Postgres instance. If you're using the example docker-compose file the database will be exposed on port 5432 and you can connect using the credentials provided in the environment variables (by default user postgres/password postgres).

I don't personally use databases (outside of sqlite) so I didn't mean I can't access the db or not via postgres.

what I meant was this:
when I tried to use this app I created a folder in my home dir and named it bitmangnet.
inside I created a compose.yaml and then run 'docker compose up' as my regular user (my user is added to docker group)
so far so good.
then I see that folder another created named 'data/postgres'.
that folder in not accessible to my user because of permission set for that folder as 'ower userid:70 and group root)

this makes it problematic for folder management and backup.

I prefer the folder to have permission as my user.
I don't know if this is at all possible but it would be a great enhancement.
