Change location of IRB history file about dockerfile-rails HOT 4 OPEN

I'm assuming that you are running off of main as that hasn't been released?

Not documented very well, but --sudo will make the whole /rails tree owned by rails

from dockerfile-rails.

No, I'm using 1.2.5

from dockerfile-rails.

It looks like the following does not give ownership over /rails, just the files in that directory:

COPY --from=build --chown=rails:rails /rails /rails

I'm leaning towards adding an option that does a touch .irb_history and ensures that it is owned by the rails user. This way I won't have to worry about applications that have an existing .irbrc file. Thoughts?

from dockerfile-rails.

That would probably work. I'm also thinking that people are likely to mount volumes for the logs directory so they can persist or otherwise retain them. Moving the .irb_history file into that directory would allow that history to be persisted as well (which might be useful for security audits or just convenience). But maybe that's something that could just be documented.
