Description
Motivation¶
Currently, the workdir is created in the containers/webui directory with two problems:
- This clutters the git directory. (The path is already in
.gitignore, though.) - The directory is owned by root causing the tidy script to fail on permission errors.
Acceptance criteria¶
- AC1: Use a different default directory or at least prevent the interference with the tidy script.
- AC2: Allow to configure the workdir path, e.g. via an environment variable.
- AC3: Document where files are stored by default and AC2.

I was asking ilausuch in chat, but repeating my point here for the record. AC2: Allow to configure the workdir path sounds like a feature request to me. And I'm not clear that the workdir as it is used now breaks anything. Hence I think the title of the ticket should reflect this better.
