    Thanks. I had never tested this before. Seems like it throws errors. Of course, adding and deleting links don’t work. But that’s to be expected. But also link resolution fails since it cannot update the hit count properly. If this is a legitimate use case for you, I might work on making it work.

      I try to slap anything I’d face the Internet with with the read_only to further restrict exploit possibilities, would be abs great if you could make it work! I just follow all reqs on the security cheat sheet, with read_only being one of them: https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Docker_Security_Cheat_Sheet.html

      With how simple it is I guessed that running as a userand restricting cap_drop: all wouldn’t be a problem.

      For read_only many containers just need tmpfs: /tmp in addition to the volume for the db. I think many containers just try to contain temporary file writing to one directory to make applying read_only easier.

      So again, I’d abs use it with read_only when you get the time to tune it!!
