I’m currently running a  job in my workflow using my custom docker image which has all the environment setup. 

On the step of Expo Deploy i’m running into this error Error: ENOSPC: System limit for number of file watchers reached. I can’t increase the watchers in my docker image as it is only available in read-only mode if not ran with privileges. 

The job in my workflow

expo-publish:
    name: Expo Publish
    needs: test
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    container:
      image: bluebasejs/github-actions-image
strategy:
  matrix:
    node-version: [12]

steps:
  - uses: actions/checkout@v1
  - name: Install Dependencies
    env:
      NPM_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.NPM_TOKEN }}
    run: yarn install

  - name: Build Expo
    run: HOME=/root bluebase expo:build

  - name: Expo Deploy
    uses: BlueBaseJS/expo-deploy-github-action@master
    env:
      GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
      EXPO_CLI_USERNAME: ${{ secrets.EXPO_CLI_USERNAME }}
      EXPO_CLI_PASSWORD: ${{ secrets.EXPO_CLI_PASSWORD }}

Adding  this step to the job 

- run: fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 | tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf && sysctl -p

results in the error 

sysctl: setting key "fs.inotify.max_user_watches": Read-only file system
