Hello,
According to the snap review details:
Use of the system-files interface is reserved for vetted publishers. If your snap legitimately requires this access, please make a request in the forum using the 'store-requests' category (https://forum.snapcraft.io/), or if you would prefer to keep this private, the 'sensitive' category
Snap aphoto is a java based application (Swing GUI). And it’s an image process software. It need record logs, make projects config, read images and project config files and output the images result. So I request the use of the system-files interface for snap aphoto.
Thanks in advance.
For the reviewers’ convenience please provide the specific details regarding the request, refer Interface auto-connection request for the gallery-dl snap as an example.
OK Got it , I will do it right now.

Dear @reviewers, I would like to request the following interfaces system-files
and personal-files
for https://snapcraft.io/aphoto :
-
personal-files:
For read&write access to the $HOME/.acein/aphoto
directory, which is the user and snap configuration directory.
And read&write access to the $HOME/Desktop
(Download, Pictures etc.), the snap will read image files and write output the result image files.
-
system-files:
For read&write access to the /tmp
dir, which is used to store the temp files and dirs.
Any other information needed, please let me known.
Thanks in advance.

Some helpful hints:
This is probably covered by the home
interface.
Your Snap package will have its own /tmp
folder, which is accessible and writable by default. Do you specifically need access to the host’s /tmp
folder, which will be located at /var/lib/snapd/hostfs/tmp
? If you do need the host /tmp
to be accessible then the reviewers will likely want to know what the purpose of that access is.

Very helpful hints!
Maybe aphoto
just needs the home interface.
Thanks.

I’d suggest declaring the removable-media
interface as well just in case the user want to write the result to /media/*

Hey @lattimore,
It seems you could solve your needs without requiring system-files
at all. We are then removing this request from our review queue.
Thanks!
