Problem with mounting volumes about ignition-docker HOT 6 CLOSED

I will take a look at what some other images have done on this. I wanted to make sure that it wasn’t running as root, even in the container, but I agree, it would be helpful to be able to specify the UID/GID values. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!

Dear Kevin, i really appreciate your job and i still have problems with UID and GID.

I need to change the UID and GID of "ignition" user in your contaiiner (999:999) to match the one in my Synology NAS (1024:100, that sadly i cannot change at all).
I tried hard (little experience...) to find a solution but no success at all.
I cannot change it from bash, useing "usermod", since "ignition" user is obviously used in ignition process.
So i am stuck and I'm kindly asking you if there is a way of doing this.

Thanks in advance

@proartsrl I want you to be unstuck! I was actually preparing the small adjustments to the base image hinted above earlier this week. I will endeavor to commit those soon.. What I can do for you is push a custom image with your uid/gid settings to make it easy for you. I will follow up soon.

@proartsrl, I have updated the image (with commit 68f5ba9) to fully support GID/UID specification on image build. Unfortunately, this does require you to build the image from the repo here. You can do so from the 8.0 folder with the command below (substitute the tag after -t to your liking):

$ docker build --build-arg IGNITION_EDITION=full --build-arg IGNITION_DOWNLOAD_URL=https://files.inductiveautomation.com/release/ia/build8.0.6/20191112-1641/Ignition-linux-64-8.0.6.zip --build-arg IGNITION_DOWNLOAD_SHA256=7e69ea6f09a8bc0d67fd5fdd64102401115e3a0161f4258181285dfba8570c5d --build-arg IGNITION_UID=1024 --build-arg IGNITION_GID=100 -t kcollins/ignition:8.0.6-synology .

The command above can easily be constructed by looking at the .travis.yml file in the base of this repo. That file is what is used by Travis CI to build and deploy my images to Docker Hub. As a courtesy to get you going quickly, I've built an image (using the command above) and pushed to Docker Hub under the tag kcollins/ignition:8.0.6-synology with the specified UID/GID you mentioned in the issue. You should be able to use that tag instead of kcollins/ignition:8.0.6 when you create a container.

I'm going to close this issue, please open another one if you run into any other specific problems with the UID/GID functionality! Thanks again for your patience!
