Now one can create an `etherpad` user and group on the host system and
set the container's UID and GID to match:
adduser --system --group etherpad &&
uid=$(id -u etherpad) &&
gid=$(id -g etherpad) &&
docker build --build-arg EP_UID="${uid}" --build-arg EP_GID="${gid}" .
This ensures that files created by user `etherpad` inside the
container are owned by user `etherpad` outside the container.
This MR introduces a docker build variable `INSTALL_ABIWORD`. When set
to any value other than `0`, ABIWORD is installed in the resulting
docker container, enabling the possibility to configure ABIWORD in
settings.json.docker or via ENV VAR `ABIWORD` for exporting to
DOC/PDF/ODT.
Documentation is included inline and in the docker markdown file.
* Run node 10 with '--experimental_worker' flags
* Use dedicated function to retrieve node/npm program version
The goal of this commit is to ensure that any linux based node 10 deployments run with the experimental_worker flag. This flag is required for workers to "work" in node 10. This will not affect other versions of node. This resolves#4335 where Docker would fail due to being based on node 10.
Before this change, the docker user had home in a directory it had no
permissions on. The inability of creating a cache directory in `$HOME`
prevented npm to work properly.
Additionally, the `node_modules` in the base working directory had its
owner set to root, preventing further changes.
With this change, the `etherpad` user has a home directory.
Additionally, `npm i` is now run by `etherpad` rather than the root
user; this way, it is possible to dynamically change the `node_modules`
content in day 2 operations.
Note that while switching to the `useradd` builtin, a conflict was
discovered with the GID 65534 that was previously used. This change is
changing the `etherpad` user's UID to 5001 to avoid said conflict. As a
consequence, a `chmod -R 5001:5001` must be run prior to attaching
volumes created from previous Etherpad versions.
With this change, the Dockerfile builds the Docker image from the code
checked out in the local filesystem, instead of downloading a revision
from git.
Implements #3657
