Subject: set permission/ownership for files generated by service
Date: Tue, 14 Jul 2020 04:48:09 +0430	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200714044809.5ffc4553@panther-arch.localdomain> (raw)

Hi Guix, 

I'm working on a custom service for an application, this application
use a unix socket for communication, and for security purpose I change
the owner group for this socket file and only applications that run by
members of this specific group can access to this socket file.

running the application manually, everything is OK and socket file is
created with desired permissions, but when I try to run this
application as a service, I receive permission error during ownership
modification.

my service definition is as follows:


--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define-record-type* <kyc-configuration>
  kyc-configuration make-kyc-configuration
  kyc-configuration?
  (package kyc-configuration-package
           (default kyc))
  (user kyc-configuration-user
        (default "kyc-service"))
  (group kyc-configuration-group
         (default "kyc-service")))

(define %kyc-accounts
  (list (user-group (name "kyc-service"))
        (user-group (name "kyc-rpc"))
        (user-account
          (name "kyc-service")
          (group "kyc-service")
          (system? #f)
          (supplementary-groups '("wheel" "kyc-rpc" "video"))
          (comment "KYC service user"))))

(define kyc-shepherd-service
  (match-lambda
    (($ <kyc-configuration> package user group)
      (list (shepherd-service
              (provision '(kyc))
              (documentation "Run KYC as a daemon.")
              (requirement '(networking user-processes))
              (modules `((srfi srfi-1)
                                (srfi srfi-26)
                                ,@%default-modules))
              (start #~(make-forkexec-constructor
                        (list
                           (string-append #$package "/bin/kyc"))
                        #:user #$user
                        #:group #$group
                        #:environment-variables
                          (list  (string-append "PATH=" #$coreutils "/bin:" (getenv "PATH"))
                                  (string-append "HOME=" "/home/" #$user))))
              (stop #~(make-kill-destructor)))))))

(define kyc-service-type
  (service-type
    (name 'kyc)
    (extensions (list (service-extension shepherd-root-service-type
                                                          kyc-shepherd-service)
                             (service-extension account-service-type
                                                          (const %kyc-accounts))))
    (default-value (kyc-configuration))))

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
