RUN mkdir -p /data && chown app:app /data WORKDIR /data VOLUME /data # A fresh named volume inherits /data's ownership, but two common cases do not: # a host bind mount (API_DATA=/srv/... in docker-compose.prod.yml) arrives owned # by root, and so does a volume created by an image from before /data existed, # when the server ran with a root-owned working directory.
