eclipse-velocitas / vehicle-app-template Goto Github PK

The project creation via this template is not working on Windows with Docker Desktop + WSL2.

Reason:
After the questionary a process is started, filling the repository folder with files needed for the app project as determined by the questionary answers. This means, that some of the existing files shall be overwritten with new content. The Python script doing this work is using the shutil.copy2 to copy the needed files into the existing repo structure of the vehicle-app-template.
Under Windows 10/11 with Docker Desktop 25.1 plus WSL2 the repository folder and files are mounted into the VS Code devContainer in a way they "appear as if they are owned by root" (see https://code.visualstudio.com/remote/advancedcontainers/add-nonroot-user).
shutil.copy2 tries also to copy the metadata of those files which results in an error as the existing files (owned by root).

Option to fix:

• Change ownership of the checked out files originating from the vehicle-app-template to the current user (vscode) of the devContainer
• Replace shutil.copy2 by shutil.copy

Preferred solution:
Change the ownership: The newly copied files will anyway have the current user as owner. With changing the ownership of the files and folders originating from the vehicle-app-template overall file ownership in the new repos structure will be consistent.

We remove support for K3D runtime and Dapr middleware

• Both technologies are too heavy weight for in-vehicle applications
• Flexibility offered is not applicable in in-vehicle hardware architectures
• Increase development effort in the Velocitas OSS team
