Dify version

0.8.3

Cloud or Self Hosted

Self Hosted (Docker)

Steps to reproduce

1. use template node
2. add input var arg1 as Array[String]
3. set code as "{{ arg1|join('\n') }}"
4. set arg1 as [ "123", "456", "789" ]
5. run node

✔️ Expected Behavior

output arg1 value with \n, example is 123\n456\n789

❌ Actual Behavior

error: operation not permitted

I have been set user: 1000:1000 in docker-compose.yaml，and set all folders as 777

{{ arg1|join }} is work and will output orrect answer, but in {{ arg1|join(‘\n’) }}, it is fail, also in {{ arg1|join(‘ ’) }} or {{ arg1|join(‘|’) }}

Hey @Eternity714, I'm here to help you with any coding issues or questions you have! Let's tackle this together.

The issue you're encountering with the join filter in Jinja2 seems to be related to the specific characters used as separators. While {{ arg1|join }} works correctly, using {{ arg1|join('\n') }}, {{ arg1|join(' ') }}, or {{ arg1|join('|') }} results in an error.

This could be due to how the Jinja2 environment is configured or how the input is being processed within Dify. Here are a few steps to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue:

1. Check Jinja2 Version: Ensure that the version of Jinja2 being used is compatible with the join filter. There might be known issues or limitations with certain versions.

2. Environment Configuration: Verify if there are any custom configurations or restrictions in the Jinja2 environment within Dify that might affect the join filter. The DifySandbox environment uses a whitelist strategy for system calls, file system isolation, and network isolation, which might impact template execution ^[1][2].

3. Template Syntax: Ensure that the syntax used in the template is correct and that there are no hidden characters or encoding issues. Sometimes, copying and pasting code can introduce invisible characters that cause errors.

4. Permissions and Execution Context: Since you mentioned setting user permissions and folder access, double-check that the Docker container has the necessary permissions to execute the templates. The error "operation not permitted" might indicate a permissions issue.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, consider providing more detailed logs or error messages to help diagnose the problem further.

Based on the point 2, what steps should I follow to solve it?

To address the issue related to the join filter in Jinja2 within the Dify environment, you can follow these steps to check and adjust the environment configuration:

1. System Security:

   • Ensure that the whitelist policy for system calls is not restricting the operations required by the join filter. This might involve reviewing the security policies applied in the DifySandbox.

2. File System Isolation:

   • Verify that the Jinja2 templates have the necessary access within the isolated file system. Ensure that the templates and any required files are within the designated sandbox environment.

3. Network Isolation:

   • Check the network isolation settings. If you are using DockerCompose, ensure that the sandbox network and proxy containers are correctly configured. For Kubernetes, review the Egress policies to ensure they are not restricting necessary network access.

4. Sandbox Configuration:

   • Review the environment variables set for the DifySandbox. Key variables to check include:
     • ENABLE_NETWORK: Ensure it is set to allow network access if required.
     • HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY: Verify the proxy settings if your templates need to access external resources.
     • SANDBOX_PORT: Ensure the sandbox service is running on the correct port.

5. Permissions and Execution Context:

   • Double-check the user permissions and folder access settings in your Docker configuration. Ensure that the user and group IDs are correctly set and that the folders have the appropriate permissions.

6. Logs and Error Messages:

   • Review the logs and error messages generated by the DifySandbox when the Jinja2 template execution fails. These logs can provide detailed information about the nature of the failure and help identify specific configuration issues.

By following these steps, you can ensure that the environment configuration is not restricting the execution of the join filter in Jinja2 templates. If the issue persists, providing detailed logs or error messages can help further diagnose the problem.

For more detailed information on the configurations and restrictions applied in the DifySandbox, you can refer to the documentation:

• Dify Sandbox README (English) ^[1]
• Dify Sandbox README (Chinese) ^[2]

It's still the same even in the latest version.
