Description
When creating a new directory using fs::dir_create from docker using this simple docker file:
FROM rocker/r-ver:4.5.1
RUN Rscript -e "if (!requireNamespace('fs', quietly = TRUE)) install.packages('fs', repos='https://cloud.r-project.org')"
VOLUME /data
CMD ["Rscript", "-e", "fs::dir_create('/data/fs-dir')"]
build with:
docker build -t dir-maker .and run:
docker run --rm \
-v ~/<PATH>:/data:rw \
dir-makerI get this error:
Error: [EACCES] Failed to set permissions for directory '/data/fs-dir': permission denied
Execution halted
The new directory is actually created, but with permissions r-xr--r-x.
I thought that it was related to the permission settings for Docker on macos, but now I'm leaning towards this actually being an fs issue.
If I create a new directory using base::dir.create() the directory is created (rwxr-xr-x) without error (same docker build and run commands).
FROM rocker/r-ver:4.5.1
VOLUME /data
CMD ["Rscript", "-e", "dir.create('/data/base-dir')"]
Possibly related to #465 and #293
