Solved How to allow WikiJS to use the git engine?

[FoksVHox]

Hello!

I'm trying to use the git engine for syncing changes to Wikijs, however, I seem not to be able to do it, since the creation of /root/.ssh/known_hosts fails. I've made sure that I've followed the Wikijs docs 100%, and now it looks like it's an issue with cloudron.

@foksvhox yes indeed apps run in a read-only filesystem on Cloudron, so only explicitly handled paths can be written to and /root/.ssh/ is not one of them with the current package.

Where is the upstream documentation for this feature?

@foksvhox I didn't know WikiJS did this, good to know. Would be great to be able to use this feature with Cloudron hosted Git apps.

[FoksVHox]

@jdaviescoates Yeah, or when you've multiple writers to write documentation - or even offline writing documentation.

[FoksVHox]

The issue still exists in the lastest version of the app.

@foksvhox managed to get this to work now, creating a new package with instructions. There is a bug somewhere in wikijs that it's not picking the storage directory properly, debugging that.

@foksvhox I have pushed a new package with the fixes. Also put a note in our docs - https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/wikijs/#git-storage
