ECLIPSE CHE 7.15.0-SNAPSHOT

Steps to reproduce

Create a workspace with a devfile resembling this:

metadata:
  name: cpp-j3h6b
projects:
  - name: cpp-hello-world
    source:
      location: 'https://github.com/che-samples/cpp-hello-world'
      type: git
components:
  - id: che-incubator/cpptools/latest
    preferences:
      clangd.path: /usr/bin/clangd
      cdt.clangd.binaries.enable: false
    type: chePlugin
    alias: cpp-plugin
  - mountSources: true
    memoryLimit: 512Mi
    type: dockerimage
    alias: cpp-dev
    image: 'quay.io/eclipse/che-cpp-rhel7:nightly'
    env:
      - value: /home/user
        name: CHE_PROJECTS_ROOT
apiVersion: 1.0.0
commands:
  - name: build
    actions:
      - workdir: '${CHE_PROJECTS_ROOT}/cpp-hello-world'
        type: exec
        command: g++ -g hello.cpp -o hello.out && echo "Build complete"
        component: cpp-dev
  - name: run
    actions:
      - workdir: '${CHE_PROJECTS_ROOT}/cpp-hello-world'
        type: exec
        command: ./hello.out
        component: cpp-dev
  - name: debug
    actions:
      - referenceContent: |
          {
            "version": "0.2.0",
            "configurations": [
                {
                    "type": "gdb",
                    "name": "Debug c++ application",
                    "request": "launch",
                    "program": "/projects/cpp-hello-world/hello.out"
                }
            ]
          }
        type: vscode-launch

Expected behavior

Running through the runtime terminal echo $CHE_PROJECTS_ROOT should print /home/user and not /projects.

Runtime

• [ ] kubernetes (include output of kubectl version)
• [ ] Openshift (include output of oc version)
• [ ] minikube (include output of minikube version and kubectl version)
• [ ] minishift (include output of minishift version and oc version)
• [x] docker-desktop + K8S (include output of docker version and kubectl version)
• [ ] other: (please specify)

Installation method

• [x] chectl
  
  
  
  • provide a full command that was used to deploy Eclipse Che (including the output)
  
  

kubectl create namespace che
chectl server:start --che-operator-cr-patch-yaml=./che-operator-cr-patch-yaml.yml --platform=docker-desktop  

 * provide an output of `chectl version` command

chectl/0.0.20200527-next.07f741a win32-x64 node-v10.20.1

• [ ] OperatorHub
• [ ] I don't know

che-operator-cr-patch-yaml.yml content:

spec:
  k8s:
    securityContextRunAsUser: "1000"
    securityContextFsGroup: "0"

I made those changes as I'm using custom docker images. I don't think that it can be the source of the problem as I'm having the same issue on my custom images also.

Additional context

Sorry if the expected behavior I described wasn't the right one. It's what I understood from this section of the docs

[sleshchenko]

@mshaposhnik Do you happen to remember if we're able to change projects root from devfile?

[mshaposhnik]

There is clonePath property, but it is relative to projects root folder. Need to check what wappens when system variable is overriden.

[l0rd]

In devfile 2.0 we will be using sourceMapping attribute.

[ecralx]

Thanks for the replies everyone.
@sleshchenko do you know of any other mean to change the projects root path other than the devfile ? I don't think you can through che-operator cr patch yaml file too.

[sleshchenko]

@ecralx There is
https://github.com/eclipse/che/blob/master/assembly/assembly-wsmaster-war/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/classes/che/che.properties#L35
or
https://www.eclipse.org/che/docs/che-7/advanced-configuration-options-for-the-che-server-component/ > CHE_WORKSPACE_PROJECTS_STORAGE

you could try to configure via CR patch yaml(customCheProperties field if I'm not mistaken) but I'm not sure it's going to fully work.

[ecralx]

@sleshchenko Configuring via CR patch yaml (server > customCheProperties > CHE_WORKSPACE_PROJECTS_STORAGE) works great ! For my current usage (playing around with Che) it is enough but it would be great if we could change it's value through the devfile ! Thanks for your help.

EDIT: After a few tests, it appears that, even though CHE_PROJECTS_ROOT is the one set in CHE_WORKSPACE_PROJECTS_STORAGE (/home/user for example), it still creates a .theia folder in /projects and it's in fact the default directory that opens up when launching the workspace. I have to open up the right directory from the File menu to access my project (which opens up in a new tab). As I'm using the /projects folder (in my custom docker images) for other purposes, it's kind of annoying, but it still works so it's not that problematic.

[skabashnyuk]

@ecralx from what I can see in code and after consulting with @azatsarynnyy I can say that even if you CHE_WORKSPACE_PROJECTS_STORAGE change this property and ws-master properly mount projects volume in a new place path \projects is hardcoded in che-theia.

[azatsarynnyy]

ATM, Che Theia expects a user's project directory to be /projects only.

I've just filed a corresponding issue https://github.com/eclipse/che/issues/17347
@benoitf @l0rd re-prioritize it, please, if needed.

@ecralx should be fixed with the next build of che-theia (nightly/next)

[ecralx]

The problem seems to be resolved with the new che-theia build ! Thanks everyone 👍

[azatsarynnyy]

Thank you @ecralx for your question/request!
I'm closing it as resolved. Feel free to reopen it if it's needed.
