Permission denied when trying to access from non-root user in container

[koenlek]

Dear @vieux,

I just found out about this great plugin! It really seems to offer exactly what I need. I just ran into a small issue. For reasons I won't explain here, the container that I use has to be run by a non-root user. From that user, I cannot access the mount: if I try to cd or access anything in it, I get an error: bash: cd: <path_name>: Permission denied. When I switch to root (sudo -s), I can cd into it and everything works fine.

Would there be a way in which I can fix this? I would't mind patching the plugin for my own usecase, if you can point me the right direction...

By the way, I tried sudo chown -R <user>:<user> <path_name> and sudo chown <user>:<user> <path_name>, but both don't work...

It turns out that you need to use the -o allow_other option of sshfs. I also figured out more or less how I could add this to the plugin by patching main.go. For now, there is even a quick and dirty fix to get it working using the current version of the plugin:

docker volume create -d vieux/sshfs:latest -o sshcmd="-o allow_other <user>@<host>:<path>" -o password=<pw> <vol_name>

After my clean fix, it would look like this:

docker volume create -d vieux/sshfs:latest -o sshcmd=<user>@<host>:<path> -o allow_other  -o password=<pw> <vol_name>
