fs.writeFile - permission issue on GCP (Google Cloud Run)

error on this:

fs.writeFile(fileName, pdfBytes, err => {
if (err) {
console.log(err.message)
reject(err.message)
} else resolve(fileName)
})


#1 It looks like when deployed into Cloud Run it also requires the extra permission "Service Account Token Creator" to run getSignedUrl. Locally for some reason this role is not required.



#2 Only the directory /tmp is writable in Cloud Run. So, change the default write location to write into this directory.

However, you have to be aware of 2 things:

  • Cloud Run is stateless, that means when a new instance is created, the container start from scratch, with an empty /tmp directory
  • /tmp directory is an in-memory file system. The maximum allowed memory on Cloud Run is 2Gb, your app memory footprint included. In addition of your file and Airflow, not sure that you will have a lot of space.

A final remark. Cloud Run is active only when it process request, and a request has a maximum timeout of 15 minutes. When no request, the allowed cpu is close to 0%. I'm not sure of what you want to achieve with Airflow on Cloud Run, but my feeling tells me that your design is strange. And I prefer to warn you before you spend too much effort on this.

for loop in javascript - promise - .eslintrc for "for of"

the vast majority of cases  map ,  forEach ,  find  etc. can be used.  async function printFiles () { const files = await getFilePaths(); await Promise.all(files. map (async (file) => { const contents = await fs.readFile(file, 'utf8') console.log(contents) })); } const inventory = [ { name : 'apples' , quantity : 2 } , { name : 'bananas' , quantity : 0 } , { name : 'cherries' , quantity : 5 } ] ; const result = inventory . find ( ( { name } ) => name === 'cherries' ) ;   function getFirstMatching(array) { for (let item of array) { const result = heavyTransform(item); if (result) { return result; } } } Specifically this shuts down the whole no-restricted-syntax.
