Spent way too much time figuring out why I wasn’t able to mount a TrueNAS NFS share.

The TrueNAS logs just led to confusion:

Feb 24 17:34:05 truenas 1 2022-02-24T17:34:05.642961-06:00 truenas.local mountd 3384 - - mount request from <Shield IP> from unprivileged port

There’s a little nugget buried here Kodi NFS that says you must allow mount access from non-root users.

This setting is in the Service -> NFS options, NOT in the NFS sharing set up:

As mentioned in the credentials documentation

By default, Git does not consider the “path” component of an http URL to be worth matching via external helpers. This means that a credential stored for https://example.com/foo.git will also be used for https://example.com/bar.git.

Setting the useHttpPath configuration option to true will change the default behavoir

git config --global credential.useHttpPath true

You will be prompted for passwords for existing repositories after this change

sudo !!

go back to the previous directory

• Jekyll
• minimal-mistakes
• docker

1. clone the minimal-mistakes repo

git clone https://github.com/mmistakes/minimal-mistakes.git

2. create a Dockerfile to build a base container to generate a Gemfile.lock

FROM ruby:3.0

WORKDIR /srv/jekyll

VOLUME /srv/jekyll

3. build the container

docker build -t blog .

4. generate the Gemfile.lock

docker run --volume="$PWD:/srv/jekyll" -it blog bundle install 

5. modify the above Dockerfile to incorporate the lock file

FROM ruby:3.0

RUN bundle config --global frozen 1

WORKDIR /srv/jekyll

COPY Gemfile Gemfile.lock minimal-mistakes-jekyll.gemspec ./

RUN bundle install

VOLUME /srv/jekyll

6. build the container

docker build -t blog .

7. create a docker-compose.yml file

version: "3.0"

services:
  dev:
    image: blog
    command: ["jekyll", "serve", "--incremental", "--livereload"]
    ports:
      - "4000:4000"
    volumes:
      - $PWD:/srv/jekyll

8. add the port and host to _config.yml

port: 4000
host: "0.0.0.0"

9. Fire it up

docker-compose up

ISSUE with Ruby 3:

I recenty ran into this error when starting jekyll:

cannot load such file -- webrick

Following the guidance in this bug

I added the webrick to the gemspec like this in Gemfile before generting the Gemlock:

source "https://rubygems.org"
group :jekyll_plugins do
  gem "webrick"
  gem "jekyll-archives"
end
gemspec
