'Tauri window.TAURI.fs.readDir(... is unable to read directory - Error: path not allowed on the configured scope

I'm new to Tauri and I'm trying to read / ls a directory.

window.__TAURI__.fs.readDir("com.tauri.dev/", { dir: window.__TAURI__.fs.Dir.Data }).then(...

Unhandled Promise Rejection: path not allowed on the configured scope: /home/user/.local/share/com.tauri.dev/

It seems like I'm messing up the scope somehow? I've enabled every "allowlist" item I could think of and the scope seems to be defined correctly:

"allowlist": {
  "path": { "all": true },
  "all": true,
  "fs": {
    "all": true,
    "readFile": true,
    "writeFile": true,
    "readDir": true,
    "copyFile": true,
    "createDir": true,
    "removeDir": true,
    "removeFile": true,
    "renameFile": true,
    "scope": ["$DATA/com.tauri.dev/*"]
  }

What gives?

Tauri info:

$ npm run tauri info

> [email protected] tauri
> tauri "info"

I had similar problems with the scope in http for tauri version 1.0.0-rc.3.

Saw some fixes for the scope on tauri dev and upgraded to an unreleased git backed version (in Cargo.toml):

tauri = { git = "https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/", rev="834ccc51539401d36a7dfa1c0982623c9c446a4c", features = ["fs-read-file", "fs-write-file", "http-all",...

Fixed the HTTP issue and also fs is working for me (in tauri.conf.json)

"allowlist": {
            "fs": {
                "readFile": true,
                "writeFile": true,
                "scope": ["$DATA/XXX/**"]
            },

It seems like it needs both the base path and the one with the * appended in order to work in the directory you are referencing.

"scope": ["$APP/*","$APP"]
