In order to overcome the syncronization of directory permissions between mounted directories, I instruct my Docker container to run its main process with the same user id (uid
) as the user who starts the container (which is not root
in my case).
So I pass uid
and gid
as environment variables to my containers in order for them to create a user/group with those values and use them to run their process with (e.g. Nginx).
Now the big question is, how do I find the uid
and gid
in Windows?
