Proposal for docker-compose about linuxgsm-docker HOT 6 CLOSED

The Dockerfile has a user and group created on line 86

We're able to edit config files from inside the container since the PR to add vim to the image had been merged.

With the volume bind we can edit the configs under the user the container is started under on the host too. The changes made on the host will instantly reflect in the container but the game server still needs the initial, manual, interaction to be installed so we have access to those specific configs.

I would have to test it, but is it possible to create groups and users in the Dockerfile? Afterwards you can switch using the USER docker statement and run the process as the given user. I think you should try to avoid running sudo commands.

I tried that however it was causing permission issues as inside the docker user had no write permission . So really need some experiment . The whole Linuxgsm user specified. If there would be no user group specification in Dockerfile that might change things , would make your plan working , but that might break things inside LGSM

@clairmont32 that is true , and even above all that we are already capable of using any editor as root with the same effect on host. Might be pointless to do indeed

@takov751 lets bring this convo over to #27 (comment) so we dont clutter the issues with our back and forth.
