Mounting volume with APP_DIR #8

Closed xloup closed 9 years ago

xloup commented 9 years ago

when I use: -e APP_DIR=/home/myUser/mymetorFolder

I get a message :
Unable to locate server directory; hold on: we're likely to fail /usr/bin/entrypoint.sh: line 101: cd: /home/myUser/mymetorFolder: No such file or directory

This folder does exist ... and I have no permissions problem on mounting volumes with other containers from that folder...

I am probably not doing this right, since dockerfile seems will need to be changed as per bellow readme comment: Bind-mount, volume, Dockerfile ADD via environment variable (APP_DIR)

Correct; if you are trying to reference a directory external of the container, you will need to bind-mount that directory into place. In your case, you would want to execute the command with something like this:

docker run -e APP_DIR=/app -v /home/myUser/mymetorFolder:/app [additional options] ulexus/meteor
