I'm trying to get the command-line export functionality of drawio working from a docker container and running into permissions issues related to $HOME being writable. The default behavior of a docker image is to have $HOME set to "/". This causes drawio to throw an error and hang:
Note the --cap-add SYS_ADMIN requirement is issue #144.
docker run -u $(id -u) -it --cap-add SYS_ADMIN drawio-image drawio -x --crop infile.drawio -o outfile.pdf
A JavaScript error occurred in the main process

[[[[ HANGS HERE ]]]]
Set $HOME to /tmp in the Dockerfile allows things to work although there is still a permissions complaint:
docker run -u $(id -u) -it --cap-add SYS_ADMIN drawio-image drawio -x --crop infile.drawio -o outfile.pdf
Home directory not accessible: Permission denied
infile.drawio -> outfile.pdf
I'm not actually writing anything to the $HOME directory so my opinion is that draw.io should not require a writable $HOME directory to function.
