`dapr init` not creating the default components folder

[sarsharma]

Expected Behavior

dapr init should create a default components folder ~/.dapr

Actual Behavior

The ~/.dapr folder is not created as part of dapr init Therefore dapr run fails with /home/azureuser/.dapr/components: no such file or directory

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

OS: Linux (Ubuntu 20.04) CLI Version: 1.8.1 Install the dapr cli using the script https://docs.dapr.io/getting-started/install-dapr-cli/ Run dapr init

Release Note

RELEASE NOTE:

[mukundansundar]

@sarsharma Is the dapr init command run as the same user as azureuser? Or is it run as root?

[sarsharma]

It is run as root @mukundansundar

[sarsharma]

When dapr init is run as root to install dapr, the .dapr folder is created under /root/.dapr In this case, dapr run will not work without sudo As a workaround, the /root/.dapr folder can be copied to the home directory of the user ~/.dapr This allows dapr run to work without sudo

[shubham1172]

When dapr init is run as root to install dapr, the .dapr folder is created under /root/.dapr

#1056 should solve this issue by allowing sudo dapr init to specify --dapr-path to /home/azureuser/.dapr.
