Unsolved make `public` folder writable

[vladimir.d]

There are some EspoCRM extensions require a public content being uploaded to /app/code/7.0.8/public folder, which is on read-only filesystem in the cloudron app now.

Could you amend the app so the public folder was linked to /app/data/public?

@vladimir-d actually that folder contains release files and the actual app code, so we can't just link that folder into /app/data as it would be very hard to ensure tested and reliable updates then with new releases. If EspoCRM extensions require to place and patch release files, then I think we can't support those easily without risking to break the app on every update.

Do you have more information on how the upstream app handles such cases with their extensions?

In the past, we have made change for specific extensions like the VOIP integration - https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/espocrm-app/-/commit/575567fc72457be3d76d8932e7620b1c849fdd8e

I think I was unclear about what folder being made writable, sorry.

What we need is to deploy some files and directories in /app/code/current/public folder which is readonly now. This /app/code/current/public folder contains just directories/files available for public visitors. We don't need to update or patch release files.
