What permissions I need if the user can choose any folder?

[bouteillerAlan]

My app ask the user to select a folder when the app launches.

Then the user can read/write any file or folder in it, it can also create/delete/rename any file and folder (via the app).

What I have to put on capabilities/default.json to allow this?

You only have to allow the APIs you need but don't have to worry about the scope configs (handled by the file picker), so for example to allow the file picker and the readDir method:

"permissions": ["dialog:allow-open", "fs:allow-read-dir"]

If you miss one of the permissions you may need tauri will throw an error on the respective function call telling which permission(s) will enable that function.

Ok I'm certainly missing something, I'm sorry. When I put these two rules I got an error that say Permission not found ... must be one of with the full list of the possible value. In this list no trace of fs or dialog. Do I need to edit the tauri.conf.json to allow these rule to be set, like by activating the fs and dialog plugin?

Even with the example in the doc I got this error :/

Ok I forgot some "essential" stuff like adding the init in the run() function, thanks :)

So if someone is passing by:

1. add the tauri plugin crate you need, so should be in your cargo.toml tauri-plugin-fs and tauri-plugin-dialog
2. add the init in the run function in lib.rs

pub fn run() {
    tauri::Builder::default()
        .plugin(tauri_plugin_fs::init())
        .plugin(tauri_plugin_dialog::init())
and so on...

3. add the rules in default.json

 "permissions": [
    "core:default",
    "opener:default",
    "dialog:allow-open",
    "fs:allow-read-dir"
  ]
