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.

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

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...
