# This is moved to the bottom for technical reasons.
#VOLUME $IPFS_PATH

# IPFS API to use for fetching gx packages.
# This can be a gateway too, since its read-only API provides all gx needs.
# - e.g. /ip4/172.17.0.1/tcp/8080 if the Docker host
#   has the IPFS gateway listening on the bridge interface
#   provided by Docker's default networking.
# - if empty, the public gateway at ipfs.io is used.

# Call uid 1000 "ipfs"
USER ipfs

# Expose the fs-repo as a volume.
# We're doing this down here (and not at the top),
# so that the overlay directory is owned by the ipfs user.
# start_ipfs initializes an ephemeral fs-repo if none is mounted,
# which is why uid=1000 needs write permissions there.
VOLUME $IPFS_PATH

# This just makes sure that:
# 1. There's an fs-repo, and initializes one if there isn't.
# 2. The API and Gateway are accessible from outside the container.
