Is it possible to use tmpfs for services/volumes on Drone 1.0?

#1

Hi, i have migrated my drone from 0.8 to 1.0. But tmpfs doesn’t work and i don’t find anything about it.

I trying something like this:

services:
- name: mysql
  image: mysql:5.6
  environment:
    MYSQL_ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD: yes
  privileged: true
  tmpfs: /var/lib/mysql

yes, you can use a temporary mount [1] and specify that it should be created in-memory, which maps to a docker tmpfs volume.

Example temporary volume on disk:

volumes:
- name: cache
  temp: {}

Example temporary volume in-memory:

volumes:
- name: cache
  temp:
    medium: memory

Is there any place where such configuration options are specified more in depth? In the official docs there is e.g. no mention of the medium attribute you just used
